I gave a free public lecture on our astrophysics discovery which recently made the cover of Nature–thought I’d share here!

Hi folks! Recently, I led a paper that made the cover of the March 12 issue of nature, demonstrating the discovery of the first "chirping" supernova and its consequences for magnetar astrophysics and general relativity. I was asked to give a public lecture at the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History and it was recorded so I thought I'd share this here. Would be happy to discuss the science with folks! The paper is available here: www.nature.com/articles/s41586-026-10151-0 a wonderful News and Views written by Dr. Adam Ingram is available here: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-026-00490-3
