Satellite megaconstellations in low Earth orbit interfere with ground-based optical astronomy, but the scale of that interference has been hard to measure. Here we report an uncued photometric survey from a mid-northern latitude site in late 2024 which recorded some 25,000 tracks of 5,118 individual satellites to a lim...

Galactic archaeology relies on stellar kinematics and chemical abundances to identify various stellar populations and associations. With JWST, Galactic archaeology of ancient metal-poor brown dwarfs is now possible through high-sensitivity, medium-resolution spectroscopy. We present the first metal-poor brown dwarf rad...

The JWST archive contains thousands of NIRCam exposures distributed across the sky. Small solar system bodies (SSSBs) are present in many of these fields, but are often trailed and more difficult to detect. The standard pipeline produces a single image by fitting a slope to a sequence of $N$ cumulative ``up-the-ramp"gr...
