And with the handover of the conference flag from the Padova hosting committee to the Cork hosting committee, the closing ceremony ended. We are all looking forward to #EAS2025Cork! The scientific program of #EAS2024Padova will continue after the lunch break.
The 2024 edition of the Irish National Astronomy Meeting will take place in Galway on August 29-30. If you've never been before, it's a great opportunity to meet the wider astronomy community working on the island of Ireland. astro.universityofgalway.ie/…

Survey on Space Law in the EU: closes today. Please have your say! As astronomers, we should push for protection of dark skies as human heritage. There is strength in numbers, so please make time to complete this survey today.

Delighted to see several of our members involved with this research!
Three explosions, two stars, and a rare discovery.
Webb recently detected tellurium, an element rarer than platinum on Earth, in the explosive aftermath of two neutron stars merging. The detection may help reshape our understanding of the cosmos: nasa.gov/missions/webb/nasas…

ALT Bright galaxies and other light sources in various sizes and shapes are scattered across a black swath of space: small points, hazy elliptical-like smudges with halos, and spiral-shaped blobs. The objects vary in color: white, blue-white, yellow-white, and orange-red. Toward the center right is a blue-white spiral galaxy seen face-on that is larger than the other light sources in the image. Toward the upper left is a small red point.
