This is a high-resolution direct imaging concept, so you'd work out how rings would smear out your image, and at what wavelengths.
Niiiice.
Enjoying my latest Cassandra role of showing up to science meetings and croaking 'Have you thought about exorings?' from the back.
(More fun than my previous 'But we don't know eta-Earth well enough!' saw.)
No it's nearly the end, we live in Los Angeles!
Wow the fifth grade teachers are really just done with things, aren't they. Our school has a fundraiser every year where the class works together to make a group art project, on which the parents bid. This year the teachers just emailed to ask if all the parents could just donate money this year. 😅

Cover of "Picture an Astronomer: Best Practices for Retaining Talent in Astrophysics", which features an illustration of a 19-year-old Vera Rubin looking through a telescope over a backdrop of a first light image of spiral galaxies from the Rubin Observatory.
Happy International Women's Day!
Perfect time for me to (re)share our white paper on increasing the retention of women in professional astrophysics (really full of suggestions that broaden participation in academic science in general).
