Teams using our ALMA Observatory have been able to clearly show how magnetism has a pre-eminent role in young star accretion and growth!

The best part is that the lead scientist for that paper is our colleague Paulo Cortés, who apart from doing notable science is also responsible for the scientific acceptance of ALMA software releases!

#Sirius & #CaptainNikos intercepted, says Italian journalist on board

The interception has started, said Lorenzo D'Agostino, an Italian journalist on board the Hilo, which is part of the #flotilla.

"From #Alma we don't have communications anymore. Sirius intercepted, seen with my eyes, Captain Nikos intercepted, seen on chat. The rest of the Flotilla keeps going."

This is my second migration on Mastodon, so I think an Introduction might be in order. I'm moving in to this account (that had lived independently, to test some of Mathstodon features) after astrodon.social is being sunset. Hope that Astrodon as a concept still lives!

I currently work in Systems Engineering for radio telescopes (in particular, the ALMA radio interferometer). I’ve also worked in software development and management for the SKAO observatory, and for the archive department at ESO. Of course, I'm also very interested in math (specially that having to do with system theory), so I'll try to get a bit stronger there.

Glad to see you all around!
