Peter Duttonโ€™s track record on Medicare isnโ€™t just bad โ€” itโ€™s dangerous. Letโ€™s not forget it this election. #CostofDutton #Auspol #Ausvotes #DontRiskDutton #WeCantAffordDutton Authorised by D. Loasby, GetUp, 52 Reservoir St, Sydney


Once again, for the 10th time in 12 years, Iโ€™m attending the Palm Sunday Rally for Refugees here in Canberra. We really need to end Australiaโ€™s mistreatment of refugees and asylum seekers!

Equity in education is fundamental to a fair go. Thatโ€™s why, at this federal election, I'm voting to support fully funded public schools. #ForEveryChild

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

The Giant Magellanโ€™s primary mirrors are the worldโ€™s largest and most challenging optics ever produced. All seven have been cast at the @uarizona Richard F. Caris Mirror Lab. Read more about what these giant optics will do: giantmagellan.org/telescope-primโ€ฆ
