So, you want to be a graduate student activist.
Are you a graduate student interested in making your astronomy department or university a better place to grad school? Today, one of our authors shares his advice about how to make positive change from his experiences this past year as a Graduate Student Council President.
Whipping up a cluster ft. Radio-loud AGN
Read on to learn how radio observations are uncovering hidden AGNs and what this means for our understanding of protocluster evolution.
The Radcliffe Wave (Or How Space Might Have Caused An Ice Age)
Nearby in the Milky Way, the Radcliffe Wave hosts a dense concentration of dust, gas, and star clusters. And in the past few million years, the Sun might have passed right through it! But what effect did that have on our own Earth?

Hidden Objects in our backyard? The First -ray emission measurement around several TeV by LHAASO
This study by the LHAASO Collaboration presents the first measurement of diffuse gamma-ray emissions in the 1–25 TeV range, revealing excess flux beyond theoretical predictions. The findings suggest hidden gamma-ray sources, such as pulsar wind nebulae or massive star clusters, and indicate spectral variations across the Galactic plane. These results challenge existing cosmic-ray transport models and highlight the need for further observations and refined theoretical frameworks.
