📍Don't miss the next European VLBI Network seminar by JIVE, on Thursday 12 March at 11:00 CET on Zoom. John McKean will present "Testing models for dark matter with extremely high angular resolution imaging of galaxy-scale gravitational lenses": https://evlbi.org/evn-seminars #JIVEVN #VLBI

⚡ Big news from fast radio bursts at ApJL ⚡ Astronomers have localised a repeating FRB — only the fourth ever linked to a persistent radio source. Using the EVN and JIVE, they created an Earth-sized telescope to pinpoint it. 👉 https://jive.eu/news/astronomers-pinpoint-repeating-fast-radio-burst-to-persistent-radio-source #JIVEVN #astronomy

Last Monday, JIVE Director Agnieszka Słowikowska had the honour of joining the celebration of 50 years of Spain’s Yebes Observatory! 💫 A very special occasion for JIVE, as #Yebes is the Spanish node in the European VLBI Network (EVN) and #Spain 🇪🇸 is a full JIVE member.

From JIVE to SKA Observatory in South Africa: a journey across continents and telescopes

We had the pleasure of speaking with Bayandina Olga, formerly a JIVE Support Scientist and now one of the VLBI experts at SKA-Mid in South Africa — with many valuable stops along the way.

📡 New in NatureAstronomy
& MNRAS: Astronomers using radio telescopes worldwide found a dark object ~1M× the Sun’s mass—not by its light, but by its tiny gravitational distortion of light from a distant galaxy. Data were correlated at JIVE: https://jive.eu/news/new-nature-astronomy-and-mnras-letters-astronomers-image-mysterious-dark-object-distant #JIVEVN #VLBI

✴️ Today the #JVS2025 at JIVE and the University of Pretoria concludes. But the conversations and energy don’t stop here. In the coming days, we’ll share more pictures and videos that reflect its atmosphere and contribution.

Our participants have much to say—and we sought to give at least some of them the floor. Most importantly, we aimed to equip them with tools for the exciting science they are now doing or will soon embark on.
