✨ Ein Technikwunder aus den 70ern! 🚀
Begonnen im Jahr 1967, arbeiteten 40–60 Menschen insgesamt 1.318 Tage lang an diesem außergewöhnlichen Projekt. Auf einem Gelände von 154.000 m² entstand das Radioteleskop mit einer 100 m großen Schüssel – dazu kamen Labor- und Büroräume sowie der Steuerraum. 🏗️🔧 Der Boden musste dabei eine Traglast von 3.200 Tonnen aushalten! 💪
🗓️ Meilensteine:
1966: Gründung des Instituts
1967–1971: Bau des Radioteleskops in Effelsberg
Mai 1971: Einweihung des Radioteleskops 🎉
August 1972: Start des Messbetriebs 📡🔭 Heute ist es das zweitgrößte vollbewegliche Radioteleskop der Welt! 🌍

While astronauts are returning from the ISS to Earth today, the space station is constantly communicating with ground stations. For radio astronomers, this makes the ISS one of the brightest artificial radio sources in the sky.
📻 Through the ARISS program, school classes around the world had the opportunity to speak directly with astronauts aboard the ISS via radio. This was only possible thanks to the support of dedicated amateur radio operators, who provided the radio equipment, coordinated contacts, and ensured the communication technically.
🔬 At the MPIfR, however, we study the extremely quiet universe. To do so, we develop methods to detect, filter, and avoid such strong radio signals. This is why radio telescopes are located in protected regions — such as the Eifel, deserts, or high mountain areas.
🌍 Space is radio-loud, not radio-quiet: especially near Earth, satellites, space probes, and ground stations create a dense “radio fog.” -

Well, here's some very exciting news!
I've been wanting to share this for a few months, but had to await the pre-print to drop.
A NEW GLITCH EVENT ON A MILLISECOND PULSAR HAS BEEN OBSERVED!
These events are extremely rare - only two others since MSPs were discovered.
Glitches are more commonly observed in the younger, canonical pulsar population as MSPs are much older and should have sorted out these types of disruptive events over their evolution.
That's what makes them so stable!
OR ... maybe they're not as stable as we once thought ...
This new paper predicts that we should see a glitch per MSP once every 400 years or so.
Glitches, profile changes .... as our instruments become more sensitive and datasets expand in time, we're starting to see that MSPs might not be as stable as we once thought ...
That's really important!

I am so very excited to share this story. Def. a career highlight!
Having the opportunity to sit down and have a one-on-one candid chat with the woman who discovered pulsars and changed the course of astrophysics, leading to me being extremely passionate about this topic and eventually moving into a career of pulsar astronomy. Yeah, this was big.
I hope you enjoy this interview, where Prof. Bell Burnell offers some personal insight into the history of the big discovery as well as the legacy of one of astronomy’s most iconic and influential figures.
What an honour it is to tell this story!

A personal milestone ✅
I’m incredibly proud to share that my first-ever, first-author paper has been accepted for publication in the Publications of the Astronomical Society of Australia (PASA)!
Last week I got to share this work with the pulsar community at the Sardinia Pulsar Conference too.
This project has been at the very heart of my PhD journey so far - a deep, four-year analysis into an unusual and still-mysterious profile change event in one of the most stable and widely used pulsars, PSR J1713+0747. It first appeared on my radar in early 2021 and, since then, it’s been a fascinating and humbling experience trying to unravel what really happened.
In pulsar timing, we rely on the long-term stability of millisecond pulsars to search for phenomena like nanohertz gravitational waves using pulsar timing arrays. But what happens when that stability falters?
This paper explores that very question - examining what changed on this millisecond pulsar, how the polarisation evolved, and what it might mean for the future of precision timing efforts as we prepare for a new generation of ultra-sensitive telescopes.
Seeing this work now out in the world - contributing to the scientific conversation is something I’ve dreamt of for a long time (the last notch to feel like I have fully moved into my science career!). I hope it helps our community better understand the complex and wild behaviour of these exotic stellar clocks.
Read my feature article on SpaceAustralia.com below - and if you have questions about the research, I’d love to chat!
