Online maps aren't just 'maps', they're here to support the local economy, where you can find people trying to run their business they way the love it and have been working on for years, giving fair- and quality-products in return.

Non-corporate maps are little bibles for a fair society, and it would be great if people use them more often instead of the 'easy amazon click'. It gives so much positivity in return, and not just for the person buying. 馃槉

Hello #FediScience, migrating from astrodon.social (about to close), I am joining you here (inspired by @wolfgangcramer), so it's time for a new #Introduction

I'm Alexandre Santerne (call me Alex), #astronomer working @LAM_Marseille & teaching at Aix-Marseille #University (France).

I'm expert in finding #NoPlanetB 馃榾 ( #planets around other #stars).

I want to work in a #fair, #inclusive, and #sustainable #research #environment, so I (try to) act accordingly. I'm a member of @labos1point5

I toot a lot about #Astronomy, #Astrophysics, #Space but also a lot about #ClimateChange and #Climate.

Since 2019, I completely boycott planes, and I travel by #train (long distance) and #bike (short distance) as much as I can.

My other interests include #photography (visit my Flickr gallery in my profile) #Astronomy#Space

Oh, in case you don't know where Aix-Marseille is (trick: in 馃嚝馃嚪 ), the image below (credit: #NASA / JPL-Caltech / Space Science Institute) is indicating where I am, as seen from #Saturn...

... and where you also are, together with 8B people as part of 2M species 馃榾
