Mackenzie Baird, a former @CUBoulder Boulder Solar Alliance REU student mentored by NSO scientists Dr. Sushanta C. Tripathy and Dr. Kiran Jain, recently published a paper based on her program research. Baird shares her experience in our latest blog. ow.ly/MB0B50RoyP4
During operations, NSF funding is managed by @AURADC under a cooperative agreement with NSF, and DOE funding is managed by SLAC under contract by DOE. Rubin Observatory is operated by @NOIRLabAstro and @SLAClab .
Why are the two telescopes of the US-ELTP important? US leadership in astronomy is at stake. AURA's @NOIRLabAstro would provide access for US astronomers to both telescopes. Read more in this LA Times opinion piece.

Galaxy NGC 4423 may look like an oddball with an elongated shape, but in fact it is a fairly typical spiral galaxy seen from the side. In a well-placed coincidence, a more distant face-on spiral can be seen to the lower left. Credit: NASA, ESA.
April 25. Not too hot, not too cold. 😌 #NASAWebb is helping astronomers determine whether a planet that is perfect like April 25 exists. Its infrared instruments enable scientists to search and study a diverse range of exoplanet atmospheres, from rocky planets to gas giants.

Registration is now open for the next JWebbinar – #JWST Data Analysis with Jdaviz – to be held on May 22nd. Get the details: bit.ly/4aJDDHg
Have you met the @GeminiObs twins? Operated by @NSF @NOIRLabAstro, Gemini South sits at 2715m on Cerro Pachón in Chile 🇨🇱 and Gemini North sits at 4200m near the summit of Maunakea, mid-Pacific🏔️🌊. Their dual-hemisphere locations allow them to survey the entire sky!🌌
Celebrating 34 years of NASA's Hubble Space Telescope operations! This amazing facility is still going strong, in high demand, and producing world-class science every day. nasa.gov/image-article/…
Learn how @VRubinObs will use six different colour filters to detect stellar streams that are around five times more distant than is currently possible. rubinobservatory.org/news/rubin-rev… #astronomy
Happy Birthday, Hubble! On 24 April 1990, the Hubble Space Telescope was launched into orbit around Earth. After a rocky beginning, the Hubble has given us a clear window into the Universe more than 30 years. credit: NASA/ESA
Did you know that Hubble has not only expanded our understanding of the universe, it has impacted innovations here on Earth? From enhancing detection imagery to tracking endangered species, Hubble has helped shape our lives and society. #HubbleGotchu Credit: D. Kirshenblat/STScI
This is an illustration of K2-18 b, an exoplanet similar to Neptune. Between the early 1990s and the beginning of #NASAWebb’s observations in 2022, more than 5,000 exoplanets had been detected in the Milky Way. See how Webb studies exoplanets: bit.ly/49MLvHr
It's been a busy year! As we mark our launch anniversary today, catch up with Hubble's latest and greatest observations from its past year in orbit. Find out more about the mission at nasa.gov/hubble.
Congratulations to the @NatSolarObs team for a great open house at the AURA Annual Meeting!

April 25. Not too hot, not too cold. 😌 #NASAWebb is helping astronomers determine whether a planet that is perfect like April 25 exists. Its infrared instruments enable scientists to search and study a diverse range of exoplanet atmospheres, from rocky planets to gas giants.
Lindas vistas de nuestros telescopios gemelos Gemini. El Sur se encuentra en la Región de Coquimbo en Chile, y el Norte en Hawái, EE.UU. De esa manera cubren los cielos de ambos hemisferios.
Have you met the @GeminiObs twins? Operated by @NSF @NOIRLabAstro, Gemini South sits at 2715m on Cerro Pachón in Chile 🇨🇱 and Gemini North sits at 4200m near the summit of Maunakea, mid-Pacific🏔️🌊. Their dual-hemisphere locations allow them to survey the entire sky!🌌
POV: Inside the firing room in 1990 during the launch of Space Shuttle Discovery. Discovery launched #OTD as part of the STS-31 mission. With five astronauts onboard, its primary goal was to deploy @NASAHubble. The rocket launch itself can be seen through window on the top left.

#OTD in 1990 the @NASAHubble was launch into space forever changing our view and understanding of our universe. I am happy to report it is still working and am proud of the job we did to service it - more great discoveries to come!
In celebration of the 34th anniversary of the launch of the Hubble Space Telescope on April 24th, astronomers took a snapshot of the Little Dumbbell Nebula (also known as M76) located 3400 light-years away in Perseus. buff.ly/3UdrnYp
