Y'all have until Wed to apply to the UHawaii @UHIfA astronomy research experience for undergrad (REU). student.ifa.hawaii.edu/reu/ Please encourage well-qualified, motivated, excited undergrads to apply!
Applications for our summer #research experiences for #undergraduates #REU program are open! 10-week paid #astronomy internships in #Hawaii with paid room, board, and travel! @uhmanoa @uhmanoanews @maunakeaobs #astronomyreu
Your #UHohana is in the initial stages of establishing a space engineering and instrument development center at @UHIfA’s facilities on the @UHHilo campus, thanks to general fund support from the Hawaiʻi State Legislature and @GovJoshGreenMD ➡️ hawaii.edu/news/2024/01/0…
Here’s some good advice for students at any level (high school, undergrad, graduate) who are reaching out to faculty with questions or looking for opportunities.

🪐 @UHIfA was awarded $4 million from @NASA to aid their exoplanet research - The grant will help develop new sensors needed to observe Earth-like planets and determine if they possess atmospheres suitable for life ➡️ bit.ly/3Nf0Oyw
(1 of 3) Surviving an apocalypse: A @UHIfA-led team using two @maunakeaobs, @keckobservatory & @CFHTelescope, has found an exoplanet named Halla that somehow escaped death when its sun Baekdu expanded into a red giant star. This, despite being just .5 AU from Baekdu! Details:…
The entire original goal of ASAS-SN was to produce a minimally-biased SN survey to compute rates. It has been a crazy decade, but @UHIfA grad student @dhvanil12299 has finally done it: arxiv.org/abs/2306.11100 Check it out if you want to see the best nearby SNe Ia rate to date.
Show-and-tell day in the Robo-AO-2 lab @UHIfA Hilo. We'll be heading back to the summit shortly so gave everyone in the building a chance to view the instrument up.
Hilo happenings! Come to the Prince Kuhio Plaza for some cool science fun while shopping and dining at the mall. Meet volunteers from the science and technology communities and have a great time with friends and family. #PriceKuhioPLZ #astronomy #sciencefun

In honor of Hawaiian language month, we're revisiting our MKO@Home ʻōlelo Hawaiʻi series to brush up on some essential astronomy words! This week's word is "lolelipo" which means "black hole" 🌀 See the full description 👉 youtube.com/shorts/X_Y8fwc…
🌌 @UHIfA's Eric Baxter co-authored new #UHMResearch that traces the mass distribution in the universe in three dimensions - The findings could add to evidence that there may be something missing from the existing standard model of the universe ➡️ bit.ly/3HpkInz
@UHIfA telescope manager for #NASA_IRTF (pictured center) took time out of his busy day to host interested astronomy students. While we are not open to the public, we try to support the next generation of scientists and engineers as best we can!
