Pulsars are fascinating celestial bodies with an interesting history.
Incidentally, somebody else had listened to the signals from space in summer 1967

Adaptive optics technology at the Very Large Telescope has revolutionized the astronomical observation techniques
why, before adaptive optics, astronomers were forced to use space telescopes or else
The ocean is her passion, the seabed her lab bench. Antje Boetius from the Max Planck Institute for Marine Microbiology in Bremen always has multiple objectives in her sights: from discovery and precautionary research to technological development and scientific communication. An act that involves a tackling a lot of challenges at the same time: sometimes in rubber boots, sometimes in high heels.
Life flourishes there in a way that is found almost nowhere else in the deep sea.
Studying the formation of planets close to their host stars by observations has been extremely challenging so far. As part of an international collaboration, scientists of the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy in Heidelberg, Germany, have employed a new instrument called MATISSE which has now uncovered evidence for a vortex at the inner rim of a planet-forming disk around a young star. It appears to move on an orbit around its star similar to Mercury’s orbit around the Sun. Astronomers think such vortices are sites where small particles converge and grow to form planets’ building blocks. MPIA contributed considerably to building MATISSE, an infrared imager for ESO’s Very Large Telescope Interferometer.

Trying to controvert a seemingly incontrovertible law is a hard job. And Stefan Hell discovered just how hard when he attempted to thwart the resolution limit of optical microscopes.
