Tweets from #DocuFeest in New York
Tweets from the Docufeest (working group to create documentation) for the Thirteenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Surveys.
- Waking up in NYC for @sdssurveys #docufeest. This week will be hard work, but fun (and impt). Also stroopwafels (thx to @AMWeijmans).
- Customary @eduroam working well tweet. :) #docufeest
- Starting off #docufeest for DR13 documentation at the NYU Center for Data Science.
- We’re starting off #docufeest with a philosophical discussion about the differences between @MaNGASurvey and other @sdssurveys spectra!
- 19 asteroids discovered in SDSS imaging are named after firefighters who died in Arizona in June 2013. http://www.sdss.org/firefighters/ #docufeest
Hmmm. A lot of the current (test) @MaNGASurvey doc pages link to this. Cute, but not exactly helpful…. #docufeest pic.twitter.com/tl43ZEmXjK
We suspect this doesn’t exactly tell you what you want to know about DR13….. not yet anyway! ;) #docufeest pic.twitter.com/MqNowFSkcH- Hey @galaxyzoo friends - anyone know of a galaxy that looks like a cat? @PenguinGalaxy? @sdssurveys #docufeest
With thanks to @galaxyzoo we know have found a galaxy which looks like a cat… http://skyserver.sdss.org/dr12/en/tools/chart/navi.aspx?ra=174.754260642742&dec=52.6320978563203&scale=0.2 … #docufeest pic.twitter.com/KRAFDTGppj- Ttart of @sdssurveys #docufeest heralded by many emails telling me of all the new people who now have accounts at http://sdss.org
Another galaxy cat from @galaxyzoo (cat head anyway). http://skyserver.sdss.org/dr12/en/tools/chart/navi.aspx?ra=346.501606654644&dec=-2.67438950782251&scale=0.2 … #docufeest pic.twitter.com/HQeXu09G4B

#docufeest is well-underway! pic.twitter.com/rlJLX7FHYU- A “ferrule” is a general term for a metal container/faster - in SDSS used as the name for our fiber optic terminators. #docufeest
- The @MaNGASurvey part of SDSS are using new ferrules to group optical fibres into hexagonal bundles. #docufeest
- @LeoBurtscher @galaxyzoo there’s definitely an elephant. Happy to bet we can find the others too.
- I remember EDR!! Anyone else #gettingold https://twitter.com/sdssurveys/status/707249477367812096 …
- @robertcnichol I used the EDR data to show Blanton et al (2001) needed a better k+e correction!! ;-)
