I wrote an article for The Conversation - Australia + New Zealand covering our latest research paper about a massive gas outflow from a nearby galaxy.

MAUVE survey astronomers Dr. Adam Watts, Barbara Catinella & Luca Cortese have used ESO's VLT to map the gas streaming from nearby galaxy NGC 4383, showing how the space between galaxies fills with elements - and giving clues to why star formation stops. icrar.org/outflows/

I am very excited to finally be able to share this beautiful discovery, which represents the very first result of our brand new MAUVE Large Program with ESO’s Very Large Telescope. Congratulations to Dr. Adam Watts for leading this work. 🥳🔭🤩

Up to five 😲 PhD scholarships available to work on exciting astronomy project ICRAR UWA Research 🔭👩‍💻🥳. Come and work with us unveiling the secrets of the Universe

So, this research is outside my usual bubble, but is something I’m incredibly passionate about: #ScienceEducation and #WomenInSTEM

We did a study and found a clear gender bias in senior high school science curricula across Australia.

Being able to take this photo was 49% of my motivation for getting my 4th COVID shot XXXX

I was waiting for this one from the DSCOVR:EPIC account (there is a couple days delay)

Look, it's the #SolarEclipse over Western Australia from *another* satellite looking down at Earth's disc!

ASTRO 3D Postdoctoral Researcher Dr Rebecca Davies, based Swinburne University of Technology, has led research that found a rapid increase in warm carbon, which could be the product of the first generations of stars forming 13 billion years ago astro3d.org.au/tracing-13-bil… #astronomy #astrophysics #astro3d

🎉 1 PhD scholarship available at ICRAR UWA Research 🥳 This is for a domestic (AU/NZ) student to work on one of our science projects tinyurl.com/ymh86p4t Deadline March 17. See tinyurl.com/4mcwjfdc for info on how to apply

ICRAR #researchers have discover tantalising evidence of magnetic fields in the universe’s largest cosmic structures!
This incredible work by Dr Tessa Vernstrom and her team could be used to refine our theories on how the #universe grows.
