New research group by a dear former colleague now at the Institute of Astronomy, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences in Sofia: Cometary Life Cycle (CLIC) led by Rosita Kokotanekova …

… is looking for two PhD students and two Postdocs to study the physical evolution of comet nuclei and their links to other small body populations (TNOs, Centaurs, irregular moons, and dormant comets). The project is also closely linked to Comet Interceptor and Rubin Observatory’s LSST.

Rosita adds: “I know Bulgaria is not a traditional top destination for young researchers, but this is a well-funded opportunity for independent, curious candidates open to the adventure.” Deadlines to apply to go on this adventure are September 30 for the PhD students, and October 31 for the Postdocs.

@www.esa.int brings us the ESA Space Environment Report 2026, opening with “Earth’s orbital environment is a finite resource. Some of its orbits are getting crowded and increasingly churning with deadly, fast-moving pieces of defunct satellites and rockets that threaten our future in space…”

A starry night, but in another galaxy ✨

Fly over the Magellanic Clouds, two galaxies orbiting the Milky Way, and discover a new stellar landscape — completely different from the one we see in our sky here on Earth.

A video panning over two irregular galaxies — wispy conglomerations of countless stars without a well-defined shaped. The text says: "Wonders of the Universe. The cores or the Magellanic Clouds. VISTA Survey Telescope. These are the Magellanic Clouds, two neighbouring galaxies about 200000 light-years away. New infrared images from ESO's VISTA telescope show their cores up close. These infrared images see through dust, revealing millions of stars in our cosmic neighbours."
