Here are two new preprints in which old pulsar observations were re-analysed, and new pulsars were found! Using archival data to do astronomy is neat, in particular, as most data (after embargo periods) is open access to all! arxiv.org/abs/2610.12450 arxiv.org/abs/2610.17280 🔭📡 #RadioAstronomy

Discovery of Hidden Extragalactic Pulsars in the Parkes Archival Data

Just over 1% of the known radio pulsar population resides in the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (MCs), the satellite galaxies that are 50-62 kpc distant from the Milky Way. These pulsars are import...

I just took this G channel image of A11InDq, a discovery by the ATLAS survey of Oct 12. Still starlike at 14 mag it is a new comet in the very early stages of an outburst. It should become diffuse and larger over the next weeks. It is around 3.5 AU from the sun and won't come much closer. 🔭☄️
a lot of short star trails with a star-like object in the center

🔭 From ultraviolet #instrumentation to future mission concepts, explore the #SPIE_JATIS special section “Ultraviolet Science and Instrumentation: On the Way to the NASA Habitable Worlds Observatory and Beyond” and the research shaping astronomy's future. Read the collection: bit.ly/3VRwMJb
A journal cover in which hexagon-shaped images represent various astronomical topics. The top text reads "JATIS: Journal of Astronomical Telescopes, Instruments, and Systems," with "SPIE" at the bottom.

Perseverance rover has broken the off-world driving record. On 11 Oct. 2026, it reached 45.22 km on Mars, surpassing Opportunity’s 45.16 km. It hit the mark in 5½ years, compared with nearly 15 for its predecessor, on the 2,006th sol of the mission. www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/nas…. 🔭🧪 #planetsci
