ESOblog - Celebrating female role models in astronomy and engineering


ESOblog
Which role models inspired some of ESO’s astronomers and engineers and why
The achievements and influence of these inspirational female role models in science and engineering
To mark the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, we spoke to astronomers and engineers at ESO to find out who their female role model in science or engineering is and how they inspired them in their careers. We highlight those inspiring figures in this blog post.
Margaret Burbidge

My favourite female role model is the astronomer Margaret Burbidge, says Paola Amico, a system engineer for the Extremely Large Telescope instruments. Margaret Burbidge was one of the founders of stellar nucleosynthesis, the now well-established theory that chemical elements are formed by nuclear fusion within stars. She later worked on galaxy rotation curves and quasars, discovering the most distant astronomical object then known. ....

Meeting the Milky Way


Meeting the Milky Way
The road to ESO’s La Silla Observatory in the Chilean Atacama Desert appears to curve around the mountain and collide with the downward slope of the Milky Way in this Picture of the Week. Small yellow bulbs light up the road at regular intervals; it is prohibited to use headlights on these roads between dusk and dawn, as even dim lights can interfere significantly with telescope observations. The site enjoys some of the darkest night skies on Earth.
The darkness, high altitude, and resulting dry air at La Silla make it an exceptional location for astronomy. In the foreground of this image, the Danish 1.54-metre telescope is performing its nightly observations. Its instruments have allowed astronomers to achieve several “firsts”. In 2005, for example, astronomers observed the afterglows of short gamma-ray bursts and showed that the bursts are likely caused by the dramatic collision of two neutron stars, while in 2006 the telescope was part of a g ....

ESOblog - Five minutes with Adrian Russell


ESOblog
15 January 2021
How Adrian went from studying electrical engineering to working in astronomy
How the Director of Programmes contributes to ESO’s overall mission
What Adrian is most excited about in the future of astronomy
Adrian Russell looks back on how he got into astronomy and his path to becoming Director of Programmes at ESO. He shares with us what some of the most exciting new projects at ESO are, how the field of astronomy has changed in his career and what he is most looking forward to in the future.
Q. How did you get into astronomy?
A. When as a kid, I was just the right age when the Apollo moon landings were happening, so I got hooked on science very early on. ....
