Meet your new cosmic neighbors ☄️ Introducing a swarm of over 2100 new asteroids discovered by NSF–DOE Rubin Observatory! Rubin discovered these asteroids in about 10.5 hours of observing across 7 nights. They've never been seen by humanity before...until now.🔭🧪 youtu.be/DTuq-vBsDJE

What a fun meeting #skao2025! I can not wait to see all the amazing science that will come from the SKAO. It was also great to catch up with so many fantastic scientists - including all these Dutch-affiliated (past, present and/or future) astronomers!

At the #skao2025 conference in Germany this week. Looking forward to catching up with old friends and new (not to mention discussing all the awesome science we can do with the SKA)

Some interesting changes! It is going to be hard to only have 2 extra pages in part 2 to elaborate on part 1 in an substantial way... but at least it is less work for submission.

Ik ben Nederlander geworden / I have become Dutch Yesterday, I attended my naturalisation ceremony to become Dutch! It is pretty wild to think that 8 years ago this Australian arrived in the Netherlands for a quick 3 year postdoc, with every intention of moving after that.

Off to visit the headquarters of the European Southern Observatory in Munich! Hit me up if you have any suggestions of cafes/restaurants (or want to talk science!)

The team at ESA mission control has initiated Gaia's final manoeuvre. The spacecraft is now moving away from the second Lagrange point to prevent it interfering with any current or future missions near this scientifically valuable point in space.

Awesome to have this result by Iris de Ruiter and team out officially. This paper is a huge step forward for the field of long-period transients as it identifies the systems are all likely white dwarf-non degenerate binaries! www.astronomie.nl/nieuws/en/wh...

I can't believe my first edition Charizard could have been worth so much if Brooke from primary school had not stolen it and then put it through the wash. Damn you Brooke, wherever you are nltimes.nl/2025/02/17/p...

Paper out to co-authors and collaboration. This really has been a project floating around mostly only in my head - so lets wait for the blood bath begin!
