RT @ESAGaia:
The famous bright gamma-ray burst, #GRB221009A, was further investigated and illuminated 20 dust clouds, as described in the thread below👇🏽 Even Gaia could not ignore this burst and measured the particle flux at the focal plane. More details:

Discovered that my personality type #INFJ is the rarest. (Did not know.) Surprisingly accurate description of me. Anyway, fun interface and enlightening info. Can recommend. -
Completely agree with this letter calling for a new international treaty to protect and maintain the sustainability of near-earth #Space The #OuterSpaceTreaty is not fit to purpose and we are risky repeating all the mistakes we have made with our oceans.

Oh wow. Catch this! The group Yes singing the good word about #DarkSkiesForAll. "International Dark Sky Park" is in their chorus!

Attention #GaiaData users! Today, 3 tables have been added to the #GaiaDR3 catalogue in the #GaiaArchive: a table on chemical cartography, a table on spurious signals and an updated table on planetary transits for exoplanets. Full details: https://www.cosmos.esa.int/web/gaia/news

When Gaia observes the Magellanic Clouds, it does not take a picture of it! Instead it observes the individual stars that together form the Magellanic Clouds. With #GaiaDR3, Gaia truly reaches for the clouds and tracks their full motion, in 3 dimensions!

We're loosing the night, and all the stars that come with it. Great example of #CitizenScience though. Still hope for #DarkSkiesForAll?

#MilkyWay #DarkSkiesForAll thread:
RT @sundogplanetsJust over 3 years ago, I moved to a farm where I can see the Milky Way from my back door. Despite being an astronomer, I've never had that kind of personal access to a dark sky before, and it totally changed my relationship with the sky. ..

Attention #GaiaData users! Two additional known issues were published today on the #GaiaDR3 synthetic photometry table. News item👉🏾 https://t.co/B7AiBNAqjh

In this case, the answer to the question in the title might be "yes".
Again, astronomers get the spotlight, but the real tragedy is that the night sky is being transformed for every human being on this planet.
We all need #DarkSkiesForAll.

Image from 8min exposure of the sky, taken from Tiede, Spain, about 40° wide. The points are stars (you may need to open the image to see them). Two streaks are from airplanes, one from a meteor, and all the others from satellites. We are loosing the sky. #DarkSkiesForAll

Well, there it is. Cell service or night sky. Goodbye #DarkSkiesForAll?

Celebrating 100 months of #GaiaData gathered today! Since the start of routine operations in July 2014, Gaia gathered on average 70 million new on-board detections per day! Our story features one example: Pluto's moon Charon:

Europe has a space budget and moving forward with its Mars rover!

Deal is done. Applause coming from #CM22 hall. I’m hearing that @esa is going to commit €639m to the EUs secure connectivity constellation. It’s moving forward.(See thread for details:)

Europe seems hell bent to ruin #DarkSkiesForAll. First their own sat constellation "for security", now solar farms in space?! Can we think of yet another way to screw up our common natural heritage?
RT @kim_borgen:
Just imagine you could collect solar power, in the order of GWs, and beam it down to the earth's surface. If that works, that would be a game changer for Europe's energy situation, and for humanity - Director General @AschbacherJosef of @esa at the opening of #CM22 on Solaris -

Watching #WorldCupfifa2022 ? Then turn off the telly and #BoycottQatar2022. Over 1200 workers died in #Qatar in preparing for this event. Every game has blood on it. This goes way beyond worker safety, but is a sign of serious #HumanRights violations.
Want another reason? #Iran, whose government is threatening to execute over 10 thousand protesters in custody, is allowed to play. What's up #FIFA?

So the #MadeInItaly #cubesat #ArgoMoon has sent some of its first images. It is flying in support of the #Artemis1 mission, tasked with documenting the #Orion spacecraft.

So the #NASA historical investigation of James Webb came out yesterday. Seems we are still being asked to believe that he was a great administrator but had no knowledge of what was being done on his watch in the name of "policy" and somehow is exempt of all responsibility.
Also, yesterday was int'l #LGBTQSTEMDay. Not a coincidence, so #NASA leadership is slapping the #LGBTQ community in the face with this report. All in keeping with tradition it seems.
