at exoplanets 5 this week! come see my poster today in section E if you’re interested confusion as it relates to exoplanet direct imaging 👀 #exoplanets5

#exoplanets5 some of my favorite quotes so far: 1. HJs offer a high-T, high-P laboratory to test our knowledge of physics and chemistry, w.o the messyness of life -- anonymous 2. After adding more physics, it becomes wrong -- Vivien Parmentier

As Laura Kreidberg said: pretty spicy take by Kevin Stevenson at #exoplanets5 to say M-dwarf exoplanets have atmospheres! I, for one, *believe* they might have atmospheres --- but we need more data to claim the answer. How to do that? Check Natalie Allen's poster on Thursday!

what an exceptional place for #exoplanets5

i get a lot of joy out of the texts i receive from my non-astronomer friends and family panicking about physics

🎙️Exocast🎙️ is back for 2024 with tons of interviews with #exoplanet experts lined up for you. Kicking us off is Jason Wang and his fabulous direct imaging discoveries and movies!

Another day, another fistful of hair I pull out waiting to hear about the FINESST

if you’re looking for a ~cool~ poster to keep you from melting at #sagan2024, come find me and my poster on an exoplanet analog study of the solar system ice giants for future reflected light direct imaging!

Straight talk about Yellowstone. Just chill.

Highly recommend applying to the IPAC VGSF! Looks like Jessie has a fun project lined up for next year too 👀 Happy to chat if anyone has questions about the experience

My art of the giant planets are now available to download as PNGs! picturesque-freezer-4ae.notion.site/Science-Graphi…

Join us at Yale Astronomy! We are conducting an open-rank search this year for a professor in Exoplanet Science 🪐

moved back home for good this weekend after being away from my partner and cats for the majority of the last 6 months and Leo (orange) and Piper yelled at me for the better part of an hour after i walked in the door

Grad Students: Don't miss this opportunity to work on PhD-level astronomical research with IPAC scientists! The deadline to apply for the 2025 Visiting Graduate Student Fellowship (#VGSF) is this Friday, Aug. 16.⌚ See the full project list and apply at ipac.caltech.edu/page/graduate-…

Visiting the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope in the GSFC high bay. Left: spacecraft bus, with deployed high-gain antenna. Center: the camera (thin black structure). Right: the coronagraph. The textured wall in the back is the bank of filters for this huge clean room.

Presentation slides & videos are online for the 2024 Sagan Workshop Advances in Direct Imaging: From Young Jupiters to Habitable Earths nexsci.caltech.edu/workshop/2024/… 2024 PROTO (PROfessional Tools and Opportunities) Workshop nexsci.caltech.edu/workshop/2024/… Great resources for ERCs & students!

MUTUAL AID REQUEST: A brilliant working class physics graduate student I know has found herself in a difficult financial situation. Her friends are raising funds to help her out with one time housing costs. Do you have $5+ you can spare? Please donate! gofundme.com/f/help-secure-…

apparently i agreed to give several talks in september and all of the sudden it is september.. when did that happen
