@msslastro has lost a valued friend and colleague held in the highest esteem. Other than 2 years at Harvard (1977-1979), Prof Graziella Branduardi-Raymont spent her fantastic 49-year career at @MSSLSpaceLab, starting with her PhD in 1974.

Swift's UVOT @MSSLastro & @BucketHatAlice played a small but important role in identifying a black hole in a distant galaxy repeatedly nibbling on a Sun-like star. Discovered by @swift_phil 's novel Swift X-ray Transient Detector.
