Four Sub-Earth Planets Orbiting #Barnard'sStar from MAROON-X and ESPRESSO: https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3847/2041-8213/adb8d5 -> "The signals from all four planets are <50 cm s−1, the minimum masses of the planets range from 0.19 to 0.34 M⊕, and the system is among the most compact known among late M dwarfs hosting low-mass planets."

The investigation began shortly after masked protesters barged into Milbank Hall, a building at the #Columbia-affiliated #Barnard College, on Feb 26 to demonstrate against the expulsion of #students who had been accused of disrupting a “History of Modern Israel” class. Video shows students pushing past a security guard & occupying a hallway. School ofcls said at the time that the guard was assaulted & taken to the hospital for minor injuries.

"#PeterBeinart and #Columbia professor #NadiaAbuElHaj, who also serves as the co-director of the Center for Palestine Studies, spoke just hours before this shocking development, but their conversation probes what’s been happening at Columbia and #Barnard, and what’s at stake—both for the study of #Israel / #Palestine and for the future of #higherEd."

Barnard’s Star is a well-studied 10-billion-year-old M dwarf with a mass of 0.16 solar mass.

Finding #exoplanets around #Barnard’s #Star has been something of a white whale for astronomers for more than half a century.

The system of four small #planets around the star are in remarkably close quarters, with periods of just 2.34, 3.15, 4.12, and 6.74 days.

The current data rule out the presence of habitable-zone planets with masses greater than 0.57 Earth mass.

Another dystopian headline —

#ColumbiaSpectator 's (student newspaper’s) headline from last Friday (13 Sept 24)
Surveilled and Disciplined
How #Columbia and #Barnard identify and sanction student protestors.

... the university brass was complicit with #nypd in Doxxing students of its #nyc campus.

The #Starmer regime really lost it.

We stand with the #Palestine solidarity movement in #Britain!

As German residents we are basically in the same boat and we can't let it sink, no matter how many holes they are trying to put into it.

Hey, little baby girl who was killed while your dad was trying to protect you inside his hug, the #American "elite" students are fighting on behalf of you, baby.

Rest in Peace, sweetie! Rest in Peace, Dad!

The new generations have got this.

Researchers recognized that distinctive coif first: It was, unmistakably, Albert #Einstein in the early days of his global fame.

Some of those gathered around the physicist were also well-known. The distracted-looking man with his tie askew was Edwin B. Frost, the then-director of the observatory. The white-haired man with the walrus mustache was Edward E. #Barnard, an #astronomer known for his photographs of the Milky Way.

But who are all the women in the photograph?
