I interviewed renowned astronomer Shrinivas Kulkarni of @Caltech@twitter.com whose novel idea of automating a series of telescopes led to the discovery of thousands of exploding stars.

Watch the view from a spacecraft about to crash on the Moon! 💥🌖
I compiled this video from images captured by NASA's Ranger spacecraft as it took the fall so that Apollo could land safely!

Story on my blog at https://jatan.space/its-craters-all-the-way-down/

Working on a cool space project (launching soon! 🚀) and noticed that @elementary@twitter.com's file manager puts checkered backgrounds on transparent rocket images automatically! Nice touch.

1. I like how he doesn't change anything about Earth itself.
2. "Jaturn" is so eerily close to my name "Jatan" I can't unsee it now. 😂

The first time NASA figured out the Moon has craters all the way down was by smashing a craft onto the Moon!

Google Drive should have an option to directly transfer a video file to YouTube. Would save twice the bandwidth in trying to download and upload the file again, especially when someone has shared one with you.

Courage seems like a fine successor to Curiosity.
Would also be a more positive spin on the word after memefication of Apple's "Courage"

Here's a Nobel laureate coming out with honesty and a sense of humor on why he left Physics to pursue Biology.
Delightful talk @TIFRScience@twitter.com yesterday.

This #Betelgeuse account is hilariously savage. 😂 https://twitter.com/IsBetelgeuseOK

Hello #DesignTwitter, I have a favorite new font called "Permanent Marker". Looks so dope.

I wrote a poem on the purpose of the Universe, the physics way.

Quite an insightful conversation between @1amnerd@twitter.com and @cosmosguru@twitter.com on the pain of covering ISRO space exploration activites. Very resonating with my limited coverage experience as well.

Listen to the podcast here: https://newspaceindia.transistor.fm/episodes/challenges-of-dealing-with-isro-as-a-science-communicator

Me, a perpetual podcast.
