#Cyberattack shutters major #NSF-funded #telescopes for more than 2 weeks
A mysterious âcyber incidentâ at #NationalScienceFoundation center coordinating international astronomy efforts has knocked out of commission major telescopes in #Hawaii and #Chile since the beginning of August. Officials have halted all operations at 10 telescopes, and at a few others only in-person observations can be conducted.

"At the end of a winding road lined by flowering red flamboyan trees, you can still see the broken remains of the worldâs largest single-dish radio telescope. The #AreciboObservatoryâs 305-meter telescope collapsed in 2020, and in October 2022 its owner, the #NationalScienceFoundation (NSF), announced that after 6 decades, the site would no longer be an observatory. "

#JaneWillenbring as told to #JackieFlynnMogensen in #MotherJones:
"I had wanted to do my PhD in Antarctica because it was so incredibly important. But after getting back, I thought, âEven if Iâm in a different department, I just donât even want to see him on base. I donât want him reviewing my grant proposals and my papers, I just want to move away from that entire community.â And so I applied to do my PhD at a different university where I could work in the Arctic and sub-Arctic."

Super cool new $4 million
#NationalScienceFoundation program now accepting apps from middle/high school teachers, community colleges and minority-serving institutions to collaborate w/ #Arctic and #Antarctic researchers.
First season will be virtual collaborations. But in future, #Polar #STEAM will let educators visit poles w/scientists doing field work.
Later, #artists and #writers will be able to apply to join scientists in #Antarctica.
DEADLINE SOON

"The success rate of proposals led by Asian scientists is about 20 percent below the overall rate â a disparity that has persisted for two decades and runs counter to the common narrative that Asian Americans dominate the sciences and engineering fields in the United States."

"In addition to finding harassment and assault are common, the report indicates there is disillusionment with authoritiesâ ability to address the matter, with many community members feeling âdeeply betrayed by what they experience as a failure to hold offenders accountable and anemic efforts to prevent or appropriately respond to sexual assault and harassment.â

I watched part of this stream by the #NationalScienceFoundation about #SagittariusAStar, the #BlackHole at the center of our galaxy yesterday.
It's a little amusing that scientists who can see so far across our galaxy and universe, and share such incredible imagery with us of what they see, can only stream their video in roughly 360p on YouTube. đ

#JOHNSHOPKINSUNIVERSITY (#JHU) continues to pad its #space community rĂ©sumĂ© with its #interactivemap, âThe map of the observable Universe,â that takes viewers on a 13.7-billion-year-old tour of the #cosmos from the present to the moments after the #BigBang. While JHU is responsible for creating the site, additional contributions were made by #NASA, the #EuropeanSpaceAgency, the #NationalScienceFoundation, and the #SloanFoundation.
