Ohio State astronomy is still waiting to see what happens with the federal funding landscape before deciding whether to proceed. With programs that are still TBD, I recommend waiting right now because *application fees do not get refunded if they decide to cancel after you have already paid*!!

So far the astronomy PhD programs that have cancelled admissions are Washington, Michigan State, and Case Western.

So, unser Hintergrundbericht zum Chemie-Nobelpreis ist online. :-) Leider hinter der Paywall.
Dafür tun wir nicht so, als wären all die großen Versprechungen schon Realität. Sind sie nämlich nicht.

"Black people are tired. Not metaphorically tired—actually tired. The kind of tired that turns every group chat into a mix of gallows humor and emotional triage."

I write about white ignorance and how exhausting it is to hear white ppl insist "this isn't who we are, when it's ALWAYS who we've been.

Disbelief over authoritarianism in America isn’t a cutesy personality trait. It’s a confession: You haven’t been paying attention.

Banning “dangerous gain-of-function” pathogen research is actually just banning pathogen research. TB causes chronic disease, the supposed cornerstone of the MAHA movement. Hard to see ending TB research on treatments as anything but another targeted attack on science in service of destroying it.

Der Rest ist ja kompliziert. Hier kann jede was zu sagen und damit ihre Existenzberechtigung im Parlament beweisen. Gibt's auch bei großen Unternehmen das Phänomen.

Ihr habt wahrgenommen, welchen Unterschied zivilgesellschaftliches Engagement in den letzten Tagen bei der Frage der Chatkontrolle gemacht hat?
Gut.
Lasst euch nicht einreden, Engagement nütze nichts.

Die 🚦 kam im Energierecht mit einem Koffer detaillierter Gesetze, um die erneuerbaren Energien auszubauen. Schwarzrot kam mit leeren Händen: Die geschürten Erwartungen sind vom „Heizungsgesetz“ bis zu AKW rechtlich oder ökonomisch unmöglich.

Die Presse sollte sich mal nach ihren Maßstäben fragen

There is an important conversation that should be going on (maybe at the UN level?) about this, as it will become worse with time (as more satellites are orbited).

Nations worked together to build the Montreal Protocol to protect the Ozone Layer.

These constellations threaten all of that work.

"There are currently one to two Starlink satellites falling back to Earth every day ... Soon, McDowell told us, there will be up to 5 satellite reentries per day." 😳

🟠 Caltech researchers have developed a new simulation of the hydrological cycle on Jupiter, modeling how water vapor condenses into clouds and falls as rain throughout the giant planet's swirled, turbulent atmosphere.

according to my work. However, the usually defined habitable zone should never be applied to subNeptunes. The conventional HZ is defined based on a carbon-dioxide and water vapour system, with CO2 controlled by a silicate weathering thermostat of some form. None of that applies to the

#OTD 30 years ago the very first #exoplanet orbiting a Sun-like star was discovered!

It was found with the radial-velocity method.

What other techniques do astronomers use to hunt for planets? 🤔

Btw Ich war mit meinem Mann am Samstag in Wien im Flex bei einem Arbor & Tynna Konzert.

Lauter liebes Jungvolk da unterwegs. Und es hat echt Spaß gemacht.

Video: a Japanese scientist was attacked by flies while giving the acceptance speech for his Ig Nobel Prize-winning research paper that proved painting Zebra-like stripes on cows led to a decrease in biting fly attacks.

Es ist so wichtig an Schulen zu gehen und zu erklären wie wichtig unsere Demokratie ist. Und das sie geschützt werden muss.

Impressive example of what quality tailoring can do. A client came in with an asymmetrical pelvic tilt, a considerable spinal misalignment, a bent knee in one leg, and an overhanging tummy. But properly tailored trousers create a clean line. He now looks great.

Something lovely for the weekend!

Ancient Egyptian gold headband decorated with heads of gazelles and a stag between stars or flowers. Second Intermediate (Hyksos) period, Dynasty 15, c. 1648–1540 BC. 📷 The Met www.metmuseum.org/art/collecti...

#Archaeology
Met Museum photo of an Ancient Egyptian gold head ornament viewed from the front against a grey background. The headband is made of hammered sheet gold, the ends of which have been tapered to a narrower width and rolled to form loops. A string would have threaded through the loops to fasten the band around the head at the back. The front of the band is decorated with a central head of an antlered stag, identified as the Persian fallow deer (Dama mesopotamica). The stag has two large antlers, large ears and a triangular-shaped head. It is flanked on either side by two gazelle heads. The gazelle heads have long ears and long curved horns which point outwards at the tip. Between the animal heads are four 8-pointed flowers or stars. Dimensions: height of central stag 8.9, length of headband 49.5 cm. 

Dated to the Second Intermediate period (c. 1648-1540 BC) when northern Egypt was ruled by the Hyksos from the ancient Near East. Said to be part of a group of objects found in the Eastern Delta near Avaris, the Hyksos capital. The headband shows a mix of ancient Near Eastern and Egyptian artistic styles.

The request for a gift for King Charles came from a State Department liaison who used the email address “giftgirl2025” and initially told the museum that they were looking for “like a sword or something,” according to a person familiar with the discussions.

Almost exactly 30 years ago, the first extrasolar planet was identified orbiting a main-sequence star.

Now, not only can we directly image planets orbiting other stars, but we can see planets *being born*

Imagine what the next 30 years will bring.
A bright ring surrounds a star, with three smaller, dimmer blobs inboard of the outer ring. At least two of those dimmer blobs are exoplanets.
