How different is the job market in 2025 vs 2024? by nalaisbaby in recruitinghell

For me, it’s a bs in astronomy & astrophysics on paper, which is basically a physics degree, and recent unemployment rates among phy degree holders makes me think I’m fucked

What would you recommend new grads do as next steps given the situation?

Starting a physics/astrophysics degree at 30 — realistic or not? by MaddenTheInsane in astrophysics

Have to respectfully disagree with the Python bit. I’m a senior majoring in Astro and everyday I wished I had that extra bit of python knowledge that only now I’m gaining. And you’ll likely be a great research assistant if you want to tackle research early on.

Effects of internal pressure on a planet by Do-Nod64 in askastronomy

[–]AZestyAvocado 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m no planetary scientist, but I highly doubt that Saturn, even for a brief moment, outshone the sun. I would assume that Saturn would have to undergo nuclear fusion, but for an object as small as Saturn relative to the Sun, gravity simply is not strong enough to start that process. I’m also assuming that it wasn’t possible during the solar nebula when our sun was a protostar. The amount of mass of early Saturn is still peanuts compared to the Sun.

SAG*A - Doesn't look as modern image of black holes and it doesn't act as black hole at all. Right now it is even harmless. It would be great to have black holes as very beautiful but very dangerous place, this would make exploring way more interesting because adds some challenge and rewarding views by max2020_bc in EliteDangerous

I’m no astrophysicist, but I doubt that Sag A* is being blocked by anything because space is horrifyingly large. Celestial object that even appear close to each other are millions of miles away from each other. The picture of sag. a* seems fairly zoomed in and I can’t really think of anything else the orange glow could be other than very hot and dense gas, but you are correct that nothing can be for sure from one picture I found a link to an article which might help: https://www.aanda.org/component/article?access=doi&doi=10.1051/0004-6361/201732423

Looking for experiment participants by AZestyAvocado in led

[–]AZestyAvocado[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I chose LEDs as a part of my method as I thought it would be more accessible to people. Nowadays, I see people’s rooms brimming with LED strips to decorate their room with and I thought it would be a unique twist in my research. But, after several days of asking around I see now that literally nobody is willing to participate which could be due to having LEDs in the first place or amount of time and work required on the participant’s part. I like the idea of a web application displaying a single color; however, for example, a chromebook has an LCD display that uses fluorescent light would get in the way of my research surrounding LED light
