Using a giant telescope on Mauna Kea, Hawaii, is a dream for most sky fans. A Canadian amateur astronomy group seized a unique opportunity and used one of the world's largest telescopes, the 8-meter Gemini Telescope, to take a deeper look at the remains of a stellar nursery that no one had ever observed.

@blindscribe

Hmm, if you click on the centre icon then you have a list of people you can include in your reply

So you may be able to target your initial posts at a specific group of people.

More than 2 billion years ago, oxygen levels on Earth surged. New studies of ancient, simple cells hint at how proteins usually linked to gene expression might have helped fuel the evolution of complex cells in response. quantamagazine.org/dnas-histon twitter.com/QuantaMagazine/sta

Space telescope mirror comparisons

The most important component of a telescope is its primary mirror. Webb’s mirror has an area more than 5 times greater than Hubble’s!

We can't wait for it to be launched!

@archillect@high.cat So does this mean that instance is blocking everyone else or are instances blocking the server where these accounts are.
