Oh no, I am so very sorry. What a terrible loss.
Huge congratulations and a gigantic hug to Kelly on this amazing achievement!
One place you can buy Chasing the Stars is at my neighborhood bookstore, Mystery to Me on Monroe St. And if you're in Madison, think about dropping by Mystery to Me to hear Kelly and James talk about the book at 6 p.m. tonight! www.mysterytomebooks.com/chasing-stars
Somehow @kellyperil did this while also directing media relations at the University of Wisc. DURING A PANDEMIC, running multiple 100-mile trail races like the badass she is, and in her spare time (!!!) handling social media engagement for @theopennotebook.bsky.social. She is a force of nature.
... as well as histories of "the earliest Indigenous stargazers, the women who worked as the first human computers ... and the crucial role Wisconsin astronomers played in the development of modern astrophysics and space astronomy."
CHASING THE STARS tells the stories of Wisconsin astronomers of Washburn Observatory who helped us better understand our universe ...
Thank you!
Hi Dani, I’m Siri. I’m a science journalist and executive director of @theopennotebook.bsky.socialwww.theopennotebook.com/editorial-te... (If you are able to add me personally and The Open Notebook under this one request, I’d appreciate that!) Thanks for creating this feed.
We know that skilled, high-quality science journalism is more critical than ever, that the challenges facing society are increasingly complex and global. In 2024, we’re taking the time to reflect on how we confront these challenges, and I believe we will become better for it.
