Next #SETILive: Tiny Asteroids Big Threats
TODAY, Thursday, May 01, 2025 11:00 AM PDT / 1:00 PM EDT

Scientists have used the JWST to detect 138 of the smallest asteroids (as small as 10 meters) ever observed in the asteroid belt. Join planetary astronomer Franck Marchis in a conversation with lead authors Artem Y. Burdanov and Julien de Wit as they discuss these smaller asteroids and what they can reveal about potential threats to our planet.

Bonjour Mastodon #Astronomie #Spatial #Vulgarisation #Scicom je suis médiatrice scientifique en freelance et je cherche de nouveaux clients.

Je travaille entre autres pour le site web du CNES actuellement !

Si vous avez des contacts à l'ESA et au CNRS je suis preneuse !

Saturday, 12-10-2024 at 11:00, reading of my children‘s book in the #Unesco world heritage site in #Franeker, the impressive Eise Eisinga planetarium. Just come by … (but it is in Dutch)

First post on #mastodon, getting to know the place. Mostly interested in #science & #scicom content. Hello everyone!
#introduction

This is the most wonderful little book for everyone interested in #SciComm - and it's for free!

"50 Essentials on #sciencecommunication“ published by the University of Luxembourg.

https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1515/9783110763577/html

It covers everything from the history of scicomm to press releases, #SocialMedia, #science shows, risk communication, engaging with policy makers, language, you name it... Highly recommended!

Today the DESI Survey announces measurements of the expanding universe - the most precise of their kind! I had to make a cake.

I'm so excited to finally share our first main science results :)
Press release, featuring some non-buttercream graphics I made: https://newscenter.lbl.gov/2024/04/04/desi-first-results-make-most-precise-measurement-of-expanding-universe/

Jetzt habe ich auch die Audioversion unseres Buches “Kekskrümel im All” bekommen und gehört. Sehr schön gesprochen von Andreas Fröhlich (Fans der 3 Fragezeichen werden sich erinnern).

Obwohl ich es schon so oft gelesen habe, hat es echt Spaß gemacht - ist doch noch mal etwas anderes! Das kann man auch als Erwachsener hören …

(Laut Amazon-Rezensionen - danke für 4,8/5 Sterne - tun das auch manche.)

Prochaine conférence jeudi à Poitiers
