Astronomers have pressed rewind on a cosmic video of the solar neighborhood, tracing the origins of young star clusters within 3,000 light-years of the Sun. buff.ly/45AJbSC

I love this new paper on the history of this neck of the galaxy!

Over a hundred young star clusters near to the Sun can be traced back to just *three* distinct star-forming regions. This is a *huge* result for studying our own galaxy! The work is out today in Nature, led by Cameren Swiggum in Vienna: arxiv.org/abs/2406.06510

Ein internationales Astronom*innenteam, unter Leitung von @mac0598 und @joaoalves der #univie, hat herausgefunden, dass nahegelegene Sternhaufen von nur drei „Familien“ stammen. Supernovae aus diesen Regionen haben vermutlich auch die Gasverteilung in der Milchstraße beeinflusst.

Our Sun’s backyard not only looks like a wave – it also moves like one. The Radcliffe Wave is Waving! 🔭💫 Curious? Read about it now in @Nature nature.com/articles/s4158… #RadWave #RadWaveWaving #RadWaveMotion #astrophysics #astronomy #Harvard

Benachbarte Sternhaufen bewegen sich als Welle! ✨🌊 @joaoalves der #univie und Forscher*innen von @Harvard und @LMU_Muenchen entdeckten, dass die geheimnisvolle "Radcliffe-Welle" nicht nur wie eine Welle aussieht, sondern sich auch so bewegt. medienportal.univie.ac.at/media/aktuelle…

Did you see the new infrared images of star-forming regions we just released? One of them has 520 megapixels! 🤯 Here's a game: 🔍 zoom all the way in with the link below 🖼️ take a screenshot of an interesting area 🗨️ and post it as a reply below 🔗 orlo.uk/73Ypo

Cool. We made the cover. Great work (and great figure) by @mac0598. HT @joaoalves

From @perryhelion: Dust mapping with Gaia has changed our perspective on the sun's neighborhood, but how do revelations about the nearby structure of dust fit in with our understanding of the Milky Way's large scale skeletal structure? astrobites.org/2022/06/22/gal…

New student-led paper by @uwastro astronomers, exploring a vertical undulation in Milky Way structure known as the “Radcliffe Wave”. N-body simulations indicate it could arise from impact by a satellite galaxy; DR3/DR4 from @ESAGaia will confirm. arxiv.org/abs/2112.08390
