Every year on 4 May at 8 pm, our Westerbork telescope goes into a special mourning position to commemorate those who have fought for our freedom. This video, made together with @kampwesterbork, shows the dishes moving into position. https://youtu.be/nZacArKU5Ow

Our 'holy grail' has been found again! The #Kootwijk dish, which stood at the origin of ASTRON, has been located at @museumdeelen! The dish, originally a #Würzburg-Riese German radar dish, was the second telescope ever to detect the #hydrogen line.

Issue 10 of @SKAO's Contact Magazine has been published, featuring 3 articles related to ASTRON: 1 about our new director @astroTui, 1 about @LOFAR's massive data release, and 1 by our own @tammojan about @LOFAR imaging radio emissions of meteor showers.
