Scientists can now study galaxy history using chemical 'fingerprints' in gas. This is like finding ancient clues in space to see how galaxies like NGC 1365 grew over billions of years.

Hey #Astrodon: Four #postdoc #job positions in #extragalactic #astronomy and the Epoch of Reionization are open in my department at Stockholm University.

Come be my colleague! Or share this post to all the great candidates you know!

First release of the largest extragalactic HI catalog

The FAST All Sky HI survey (FASHI) was designed to cover the entire sky observable by the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST), spanning approximately 22,000 square degrees of declination between -14 deg and +66 deg, and in the frequency range of 1050–1450 MHz, with the expectation of eventually detecting more than 100,000 HI sources.

Astronomers detect first extragalactic circumstellar disk around a massive young star outside of the Milky Way

An international team of astronomers led by Durham University and including astronomers at the UK Astronomy Technology Center has reported the first detection of a rotating disk structure around a forming high-mass star outside of our Milky Way in another galaxy.

APOD: 2022 November 25 - NGC 6744: Extragalactic Close Up

A different astronomy and space science related image is featured each day, along with a brief explanation.

So now that I have migrated to #astrodon maybe I should do a new #introduction. I'm a postdoc at Stockholm university working on #ExtraGalactic stuff and Lyman alpha in particular. My PhD focused on low redshift galaxies and with the help of #JWST I hope to extend this to higher redshifts in the future.

I am also one of the creators of the @lasd together with @antihayestamine and Max Gronke

Outside work from that I am a general nerd with special focus on outdoor life and TTRPGs :)

Cosmologists Parry Attacks on the Vaunted Cosmological Principle
A central pillar of cosmology — the universe is the same everywhere and in all directions — is surviving a storm of possible evidence against it.
