🚀🔭 Big news, folks! Apparently, the universe has been busy gossiping about "giant radio galaxies" while our grand technological overlords at #ASKAP are too busy blocking requests to explain what that even means. 💫📡 Guess the galaxies will have to wait in line behind our 400 Bad Requests. 🙄

SKA -side effects 101

**Cosmic Fast Bursts**

January 28, 2025

The first trial of an Australian-developed technology has detected mysterious objects by sifting through signals from space like sand on a beach.

“That’s the equivalent of sifting through a whole beach of sand to look for a single five-cent coin every minute,”

“We’re also detecting long-period transients, which remain mysterious objects within our galaxy. Both fast radio bursts and these transients were first discovered in Australia, so it is great that we’re continuing the path of discovery with this impressive technology,” Dr Wang said.

Hi everyone 👋 Planning to get a bit more active on here, looking forward to meeting you and chatting about #astronomy, #VR, #ASKAP, #TFOM, #automation, #scicomm, #remotecollab and more! 🙌 Here's a pic of me contemplating the future of #humanity atop a carbon pillar representing conference travel ✈️

A small figure sits atop a tall pillar of carbon, stretching high into the sky, surrounded by a bleak mountainous wasteland with a blue sky patched with pink clouds above - a virtual representation of the cost of astronomy travel, created by Glen Rees as part of "The Future of Meetings" (TFOM).

Astronomen vinden de langzaamst draaiende radiostraling uitzendende neutronenster

Neutronensterren draaien typisch op zeer hoge snelheden rond. Ze doen dat in enkele seconden of slechts een fractie van een seconde. Astronomen hebben er nu eentje gevonden die anders is, ASKAP J1935+2148 zendt radiosignalen uit met een interval

Are astronomers on the brink of discovering a new celestial object?

Recently, astronomers have been discovering an emerging population of astrophysical objects that resemble neutron stars, but with longer rotation periods. This unique population is challenging our understanding of how these objects form and how they emit radiation.

I got to speak with this exciting new paper’s lead author, Dr Manisha Caleb from The University of Sydney, about this remarkable discovery, which was first found by CSIRO's #ASKAP telescope located in WA.

What if we are on the precipice of something big here? These are def. very exciting times for geeks like me!

Looking at eclipses with radio telescope also gives us insightful info into the active regions of the Sun (like sunspots) as well as helping study background sources twinkling in the Solar wind.

Astronomers have discovered a rare ‘polar ring galaxy’ wrapped in a huge ribbon of hydrogen
Polar ring galaxies are some of the most spectacular looking galaxies that we can see. Beyond just being beautiful, they provide important clues about the formation and growth of galaxies over time.

SUPER NEAT NEW SCIENCE!

An enormous ribbon of hydrogen encircling a spiral galaxy called NGC 4632, found with the help of CSIRO's ASKAP radio telescope (also NGC 6156)

📡📡📡

It's a 'polar ring galaxy' - where the gas is inclined almost perpendicular to the galaxy's rotation. Likely an old companion galaxy.

Being in Western Australia, which is a bit secluded even from the rest of Oz, makes getting students wanting to come here difficult. I put in 3 undergraduate summer student projects this year in hopes of convincing at least one to come back for a PhD 🤞🤞🤞#astrodon #academia #astronomy #ASKAP #EMU #radioastronomy
