The PhD Prize at the #ag2025goerlitz meeting went to Jonah Wagenveld and a current cosmology mystery - described in ample detail in the paper Wideband continuum catalogues and a measurement of the cosmic radio dipole: https://www.aanda.org/articles/aa/full_html/2024/10/aa50291-24/aa50291-24.html

The winner of the 2025 #KarlSchwarzschild Medal - https://www.astronomische-gesellschaft.de/en/News/research-awards-of-the-german-astronomical-society-2025 - Paola Caselli crediting her interest in astronomy to reading at age 13 The Black Cloud by #FredHoyle ... who has been the winner of the very same medal (the highest award by the German astronomy community) 33 years ago. #ag2025goerlitz
Another fun slide at the #ag2025goerlitz awards ceremonies by Frank Grupp of LMU who is honored - https://www.physik.lmu.de/de/aktuelles/newsuebersicht/news/frank-grupp-erhaelt-preis-fuer-instrumentenentwicklung-2025.html - by the @GermanAstroSoc for a major contribution to the #Euclid space observatory. Here he shows a star #spectrograph he built as a school project in the 1980s.

A. Quirrenbach reporting at #ag2025goerlitz about the status of the #HabitableWorldsObservatory, the next next thing for NASA after Roman: a 10% contribution by ESA (as for HST and JWST) is likely - and Germany could deliver something important, like a separate #StarShade spacecraft for stellar coronography on steroids. Something to dream about for the 2040s ...
