Johns Hopkins APL@jhuapl.bsky.social · 4mo agoTitan, Saturn’s largest moon, was discovered on March 25, 1655, by Christiaan Huygens. More than 350 years later, it remains a key target for exploration. Launching in 2028, NASA’s Dragonfly mission will investigate the complex chemistry of this ocean world. https://dragonfly.jhuapl.edu/Why-Titan

NHMRC Investigator Grants out today. A devastating day for many. I have already received messages from some of the best researchers I know who have missed out. The senior levels had a cutoff of 5.93 (females), 6.2 (males) - according to my sources. The impact will be wide spread.
The ARC have said (on LinkedIn) they will release outcomes for Discovery Projects Expressions of Interest (2027) tomorrow👇
Just a little cluster of stars M93 Imaged in suburban Melbourne.
Here is Thor's Helmet......a delightful nebula. Captured in Melbourne, 10km from the CBD!
In some parts of the sky, galaxies are conveniently located close together so you can capture them in a single image. The Leo Triplet is such a group. Captured in suburban Melbourne.
The 2026 SSA #Mentoring Program launched today with training from the excellent @drshanerrr.bsky.social. So happy to see both new and familiar faces in the stats community joining the program! Well done to @nicolewhite.bsky.social, Lizzie Koreevar and the committee! statsoc.org.au/Mentoring

Stunning Nebula captured last night. The Rosette Nebula C49 - imaged from suburban Melbourne.
We need to keep advocating for the release of MRFF dollars to secure our future. A pleasure working with so many great people to support Monique’s video campaign. 👌
@theasmr.bsky.social · 6mo ago🎬 A few weeks ago, we were on set filming with Monique Ryan MP and her incredible team for the #MedicalResearchMatters campaign. We couldn't be more proud to stand alongside them in this fight. Over 3000 voices have already spoken up. Now we need yours. ➡️ Add your voice now: lnkd.in/ggZn8HnS
Melbourne sky. The Southern Hemisphere rocks.
Last night was just wild done at Werribee South Beach. Sooooo many people. I love seeing such community interest in this spectacular physics event.
I’m now in the process of booking in radio guests for 2026 for Einstein A Go Go on 3RRR. Calling all researchers in Melbourne. All fields welcome. PhD and ECRs very welcome. DM me if you are interested in an in person interview. Show broadcasts live Sunday mornings from 11-12.
Good morning people Happy Friday. 44C today in Melbourne. Stay safe people. Today will not be a good day for many.
Last week there was a terrible incident. After 6 years of loyal daily service, my little guy was lost. A new contender has emerged - big shoes to fill. Still made in Italy thank goodness.
Good morning people. Welcome to 2026 Hope it’s better than 2025.
Today I asked chatGPT to rank the top 5 science radio programs in Australia with a focus on early career researchers . Very happy to be in such amazing company.
A wonderful year of astrophotography fun for me. Here are some of my favorites. Looking forward to the 2026 sky.
