#BlackWholeRollCall Haikus
Flickers dot the sky

All was one, one is still all
Marches towards the void#BlackWholeRollCall
So for #BlackWholeRollCall I put together this haiku about my research:
— astropolitical/sociophysical (@keshawnrants) June 24, 2021
Many galaxies
Families identified
Learning which are bound
A little #BlackWholeRollCall haiku about multi-wavelength astronomy:
— Qiana Hunt (@QosmicQi) June 24, 2021
X-ray binaries
are fun to find when you use
Chandra AND Hubble!
Ohhhhh I can’t wait!!!

🗣#BlackWholeRollCall
*dims lights & cues bass*
I can pull you in
And yet you still can’t see me
I’m dark and I matter 🖤 #Haiku #BlackInAstroWeek2021 #BlackInAstro #DarkMatter #WomenInSTEM https://t.co/90bzvgI6Dy
It’s #BlackInAstroWeek2021 and it’s time for #BlackWholeRollCall with a haiku of my research 🌌 🔭

Barred galaxy here
Star clusters are now forming
Look out Lagrange point
I’m excited for #BlackInAstroWeek2021 ya’ll! I study the formation history of galaxies like the MW. I will be a 1st-year PhD student @ColumbiaAstro this fall! #BlackWholeRollCall 🌌

Haiku about my research:
Galaxy remnants
Mergers past leave fine imprints
Stars hint history
It's #BlackInAstroWeek2021 and it's #BlackWholeRollCall today! I'm a newly minted Dr. who studies gravitational waves from eccentric binary neutron stars. Enjoy this haiku about my research!

Heyo, my research focusses on the circumgalactic medium of massive galaxies and the search for undiscovered distant radio galaxies.
— Dr Thabs 🤟🏿 (they/she) (@sthabile_kolwa) June 25, 2021
Now for an attempt at a Haiku:
When radio jets
Meet galaxy halo gas
I observe what ensues
💥💥#BlackInAstroWeek2021 #BlackWholeRollCall
It's #BlackInAstroWeek2021 and I'm checking in for #BlackWholeRollCall! I study dusty star-forming galaxies in the early Universe and will earn my PhD this summer! Please enjoy this haiku about my research:
— Sinclaire Manning (@smanning206) June 24, 2021
Hidden galaxies
Reveal themselves to me. Look!
Behind all that dust.
