We have a big goal today... discuss Astronomy+AI(+humans) at #SXSW2026 We hope to touch on how astronomy big data can improve AI and vice-versa, how AI can help us make sense of our universe, our galaxy, our cosmic origins. Join us at 4pm in Salon D! #SXSW #Austin @CosmicAI_Inst

here's an example use case using @DataLabAstro and SPARCL to find and retrieve spectra of SDSS stars in bins of colors from red to blue (5s for 80 spectra; 90s for 4000 spectra!) #aas247

Just got to present my "baby" (AKA software project) SPARCL = SPectra Analysis & Retrievable Catalog Lab astrosparcl.datalab.noirlab.… #aas247

will be sharing some @DataLabAstro #aas247 splinter session highlights! The team works with survey PIs/teams to ingest new data and our database holdings are growing steadily by ~30 TB each year

Here's the exact DECaPS viewer location for this Halloween nebula 👻 : decaps.legacysurvey.org/view…

Fitting for Halloween, one of my NOIRLab colleagues spotted this ghostly nebula in the DECaPS (Dark Energy Camera Plane Survey) images. @DataLabAstro serves the DECaPS catalogs as a searchable database: datalab.noirlab.edu/data/dec… 👻 Happy Halloween!

** STEPHEN HAWKING WAS RIGHT ** Using a very strong black-hole merger signal, the @LIGO-@ego_virgo-@KAGRA_PR Collaboration has shown the 2nd law of black hole mechanics, Hawking's area law (A_final > A_initial), to hold with high credibility. PRL: go.aps.org/3VarXHA #open

Congrats to the @DESISurvey for winning the 2026 Berkeley Prize from the @aas_office 🏆 By creating the largest 3D map of the Universe with ~15 million galaxies, they found dark energy may be changing over time! 🎞️DESI Collab/DOE/KPNO/NOIRLab/NSF/AURA/R. Proctor

BOOM! What a beautiful #SolarFlare (just now). This eruptive event reached the X-class level, and produced this stunning coronal mass ejection. The flare source region will rotate to face Earth in the coming week. Further strong solar activity is likely! #spaceweather
