Misinformation on social media - what does the most damage and how, perhaps, to intervene (Science, 384, 959-960)

The Giant Magellan’s primary mirrors are the world’s largest and most challenging optics ever produced. All seven have been cast at the University of Arizona Richard F. Caris Mirror Lab. Read more about what these giant optics will do: giantmagellan.org/telescope-prim…

Come on The Grauniad, you are better than this!!

How do you quantify spatial correlation in your astro subfield? After we realized that our methods for doing this were capturing the exact same information, Benji and I wrote a note to translate commonly used methods in astrophysics. It's on the arXiv now: arxiv.org/abs/2407.14068

“We measure the turbulence in the atmosphere 2,000 times a second, and we change the curvature of the mirrors 2,000 times a second to take out the turbulence in the atmosphere,” shares Giant Magellan Chief Scientist Rebecca Bernstein with ASCE Headquarters. asce.org/publications-a…
