Miss the launch of #JWST over the weekend? Here's a quick rundown on where it's headed and why.

What Is a Lagrange Point? A spot in space where the gravitational forces of our planet and the sun are roughly equal, creating a stable orbital location.

The weather keeps getting colder here. One #physicsMyth is that winter occurs when we're furthest from the sun. But if that was the case, the southern hemisphere would experience the same seasons as us! Instead, it has to do with the tilt of the earth.

#BoiseState celebrates 5️⃣ years of @BroncoPhysics First Friday Astronomy series that has enlightened and inspired countless students and members of the community through lectures and stargazing events since 2016.
Congrats @decaelus + @astrobroncos!

Dr. Daniel Fologea runs one of our biophysics labs. He must be doing something right because his students tend to make headlines such as @BoiseStateAlum top ten scholar Jason Ward and NSF fellowship awardee Zoe Hutchinson.

Dr. Matt Ferguson has been with the department since 2013. He runs one of our biophysics labs but you might be able to catch him in the hallways. Read more about his work and the lab here: https://t.co/9C07mUfpxg

We're only a couple weeks away from the start of the semester. Time to get to know all of us here in #BroncoPhys

You won't want to miss this one!

🔭🌌The Perseid meteor shower has promise to be a showstopper!
At noon today on Idaho Matters @KBSX915, @decaelus, associate professor @astrobroncos @BroncoPhysics, will offer expertise and suggestions on how, where and when to see the Perseids.

Being able to store huge amounts of energy would make it easier to expand the use of renewable energy. @BoiseState, @argonne & @UChicago researchers used @advancedphoton to research sodium-ion batteries that could store far more than current batteries: https://t.co/sObGF6MbMC

Friday August 6th is the recommended day to finalize student course schedules for Fall 2021 for financial aid purposes. Please meet with your advisor for any scheduling questions!

The American Physical Society is hosting a Virtual Career Fair from September 13-15. A great opportunity for physics majors to explore careers and graduate school. Registration deadline for students is September 1.

So Nobel established a prize
Whose value is quite a large size
It provides some relief
From everyday grief
For those who we consider wise

The professor's lab was a mess
Which caused me concern I confess
When asked which device
Would prove most precise
He threw up his hands and said guess!

#BadPhysicsLimericks

[Boise State Physics @BroncoPhysics]

A new student felt very uptight
Her worry was failure to be right
She studied mechanics
Which caused her some panics
But Newton's laws were her sheer delight
