For anyone in #WestVirginia :
There is a request for calls to your members of Congress to keep the #GreenBankTelescope operational; since it is now being threatened by Donald Trump and those with him as part of their trying to dismantle science in the United States - https://www.gogreenbankobservatory.org/take-action/ .

When the Arecibo Observatory dish in Puerto Rico collapsed in 2020, astronomers lost a powerful radio telescope and a unique radar instrument to map the surfaces of asteroids and other planetary bodies. Fortunately, a new, next-generation radar system called ngRADAR is under development, to eventually be installed at the 100-meter (328 ft.) Green Bank Telescope … Continue reading "Next-Generation Radar Will Map Threatening Asteroids"

Astronomen vinden donker oer-sterrenstelsel zonder zichtbare sterren
Astronomen hebben per toeval een donker sterrenstelsel gevonden, gevuld met onaangeroerd oergas, dat geen zichtbare sterren lijkt te hebben.

New millisecond #pulsar discovered with the #GreenBankTelescope @arxiv https://arxiv.org/abs/2306.04951 https://phys.org/news/2023-06-millisecond-pulsar-green-bank-telescope.html
Using the Green Bank Telescope (GBT), astronomers from Columbia University and the University of California Berkeley have detected a new binary millisecond pulsar. The newly found pulsar, designated PSR J0212+5321, belongs to the "redback" subclass and is located relatively nearby. The finding was reported June 8 on the arXiv pre-print server.
