AAPC 2024 - Dr Beatriz Villarroel
Beatriz Villarroel, Ph.D. Title: “An Update: A Century of Astronomical Observations from VASCO” Abstract: This is an update to the 2023 Presentation. In this project presentation, I will discuss results from the Vanishing & Appearing Sources during a Century of Observations (VASCO) project, in particular results related to the finding of unexplainable multiple transients in old photographic plates. I will further present the new EXOPROBE project with its searches for extraterrestrial probes using new observations. Bio: Beatriz Villarroel is an astronomer at Nordita in Stockholm. She has a PhD in astronomy from Uppsala University (2017). Since 2017 she is running the Vanishing & Appearing Sources during a Century of Observations (VASCO) project in search for vanishing stars and anomalous transients and is now project leader of the newly started EXOPROBE project, that will search for extraterrestrial probes near the Earth.
