We have not found a Solar System analog, but upcoming missions stand to discover more and more multi-planet systems. We can begin to understand these systems by asking: what would our own Solar System look like to distant observers?
Today, let’s learn about the Celts and their connections to the night sky!
During a phase of planet formation, planetary embryos interact, collide, and/or combine to form the surviving planets we know and love. Simulating this phase is computationally challenging, but could machine learning help out?
For today’s bite, we sat down for a conversation with Professor Jorge Moreno, the fourth Mexican astronomer to earn tenure at an American university!
As physics/astronomy become increasingly computational, training and infrastructure have struggled to keep pace. In today’s bite we discuss these issues and a new company, Camber, working to streamline research and democratize high performance computing!
Today’s authors use the VERITAS telescope to hunt for dark matter in the Milky Way’s satellite galaixes!
