Lovely op-ed by @astrokatie.com featuring our recent @nanograv.bsky.social results!
Theyβre skipping the collection of underpants and going straight to step 3, profit.
(Itβs venture capital.)
Nice!
The NANOGrav public briefing is live in a minute! https://nanograv.org/news/2023Announcement
Hereβs a nice video summarizing the NANOGrav result on the background hum of low frequency gravitational waves. https://youtu.be/c2EKbvnee3o
Itβs been a long time coming!
News from pulsar timing arrays is hitting the big time! https://www.washingtonpost.com/science/2023/06/28/gravitational-wave-background-nanograv/
Oh, this isnβt over! We want more, more, more.

What's a pulsar timing array? How do you detect gravitational waves with that? Obviously I'm biased, but I think you could do worse than watch this talk I gave a few years ago. https://youtu.be/taeABpFjjQg You might even enjoy it!
On June 29th, we in the North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational waves (NANOGrav) are announcing our results. The culmination of 15 years' work! The Australian (Parkes), European + Indian, and Chinese Pulsar Timing Arrays are also releasing their independent results on the same day.

Weβre sorry, your dog has encountered a system exception and needs to be restarted.
A Bernedoodle (Bernese mountain dog - poodle mix). Both his parents were Bernedoodles. We needed a low-allergy dog but were warned off poodles as typically more high-strung.

Quality canine content? Sure, hereβs more Rocket. (Am I supposed to tag @darthbluesky.bsky.social for posts like this?)
It's a real shame. But that site is no longer usable for science stories, I think.
The NANOGrav collaboration has a big announcement coming up - people in our collaboration might already be talking to you about it.
Oof. Can't argue, but bad timing for us... :(

Iβm told that a pet photo is required to start, so hereβs Rocket.
