Thanks, you got the good ol' teapot pose! But yeah, let's do VLBI with the SKAO :)
Now for some VLBI goodness from @jack_radcliffe_. Let’s get it working ASAP with the @SKAO! So much amazing science could be done

Enroute to Madrid for the RADIOBLOCKS all hands meeting. Exciting to see what our colleagues are developing for the next generation of radio telescopes.

Great news!! @UPTuks is a partner of this phase of DARA, and we are looking forward to welcoming students for their training at UP next week!
The DARA project, backed by the University of Leeds and supported by the OAD, received a £6.5m funding boost! 🚀 Over 8 years, DARA has trained 300+ students in 8 countries, empowering them with skills in radio astronomy and data science to tackle local development challenges. 🌍

Sounds nerdy but just did the first clock search on the correlator and now some shiny new data of a nearby galaxy will be ready in the new year!

It's pretty important for modern interferometers as these are typically core-dominated. We also provide some solutions to fix for this effect in your data ofc! :)

The TL;DR is there's a significant flux density systematic error if you use restored images (typically from CLEAN-style deconvolution algorithms) for science. It's been known for ages but rarely corrected for, so the paper aims to bring this back to the attention of the community

🚨 New paper today 🚨 - https://t.co/rCLCAvYuBe A technical one but it is an important one for *all* astronomers who use interferometric images.

The point-spread function (PSF) is a fundamental property of any astronomical instrument. In interferometers, differing array configurations combined with their $uv$ coverage, and various...
