Seems like the servers are getting a little slow again. Is this a mastodon.social thing? Maybe it's time to jump instances already?
Guess this is happening. #Introduction time: I'm an astronomer at U. Arizona working on the #NASA #JWST #MIRI and #NIRCam instrument teams studying #galaxies, #galaxyclusters, and #blackholes. Also #hiking, #reading, #videogames, #dogs, #eskies. Current status: progressively panicking as the clock ticks closer and closer to real #JWST data... 😆 #Astronomy #Astrophysics #Science #Space
On the plus side, the servers seem to be recovering from the #musk exodus a bit! *knocks on woood*
Well, since Musk happened, it seems time for an #Introduction: I'm an astrophysicist (#Astronomy #Astrophysics #Science) at NASA JPL studying #BlackHoles at the dawn of time (with the occasional #SciComm); a fan of being outdoors (#running, #hiking, #camping, #climbing); a #PublicTransit user who dreams of #HighSpeedRail in the USA; an MSU Spartan alum (#GoGreen); and a liberal who just wants a better world, gosh darn it. #Introductions
One of the great things about living in #LosAngeles is how close the mountains are. The flowers are in bloom in the #AngelesNationalForest! #Hiking
Celebrating the 32nd birthday of the Hubble Space Telescope today! Happy birthday, Old Aluminumsides! Here's to another 32 more! #Hubble #NASA #Astronomy #Space
