Proud to introduce one of our newest Staff Scientists, Jessica Spake, to kick off the 23rd season of our Astronomy Lectures at @TheHuntington tonight. I launched this series in 2002 as a @carnegiescience centennial celebration and now here we are!
Tonight one of our newest Staff Scientists Jessica Spake is at the at The Huntington to kick off the 23rd season of our Astronomy Lecture Series. She will tell us all about the exoplanet revolution. You can join us online here: https://t.co/MnxmJvB984
Our Observatories division maintains an active public outreach program designed to share the joy of astronomy with the general public by connecting our scientists with the Pasadena community. Help us say #HBDCarnegieScience! Learn More: https://t.co/inDGJySWZB
🎊Welcome to the Carnegie Science Day party! Between now and January 29—our founding day—we will be celebrating our 123-year legacy of scientific excellence, culminating in a big 🎂 #HBDCarnegieScience bash! Join us and share your own stories!

An exhibition at @LACMA explores the relationship to the cosmos of more than a dozen civilizations. The program, called "Mapping the Infinite: Cosmologies Across Cultures" was curated in partnership with more than 40 institutions, including Carnegie: https://t.co/TUgX6o3i52
Our @CarnegiePres Eric D. Isaacs talks to YPO Gold Chicago at Adler Planetarium tonight about the scope of Carnegie Science's groundbreaking research initiatives.
The U.S. learned the hard way that falling behind in science can be costly. Now, U.S. leadership in astronomy is threatened as the NSF considers whether to fund 2 giant telescope projects say @CarnegiePres Eric Isaacs & @Caltech President Thomas Rosenbaum. https://t.co/SzF6Zi99pS
Our @CarnegiePres Eric D. Isaacs speaks with former-NASA Administrator Charles Bolden and former-astronaut and current NASA educator Leland Melvin after a Black History Month screening of the new @NatGeo documentary The Space Race at our D.C. campus tonight.
Our @CarnegiePres Eric D. Isaacs welcomed an enthusiastic crowd to our @CarnegiePlanets campus for a special screening of the @NatGeo documentary The Space Race about Black astronauts, engineers & scientists followed by a Q&A with special guests Charles Bolden and Leland Melvin.
On International #WomenInScience Day, and every day, we always look to the wisdom of @CarnegiePlanets' National Medal of Science-winning astronomer Vera Rubin, whose research confirmed the existence of dark matter and who was a lifelong champion for women in science.
This International #WomenInScience Day we are remembering some of our game-changing Carnegie scientists, like
@CarnegieDevBio's Nobel winning Barbara McClintock, whose work on "jumping genes" was initially dismissed, but eventually revolutionized her field.
National Medal of Science laureate Maxine Singer, our president emerita, is a brilliant biologist and a tireless advocate for access to STEM education for all. We are so grateful to be part of her legacy of leadership this International #WomenInScience Day.
This #WomeninScience Day we're looking back across our 100-plus-year history to celebrate a selection of women scientists from our past who disrupted norms, set precedents, and contributed to science and culture. LEARN MORE: https://t.co/4JcON2Na24
We pulled together 12 of our favorite news stories of 2023: Martian meteorites, "forbidden" planets, coral reef conservation, @giantmagellan telescope, the birth of the atomic age, Edwin Hubble's legacy, JWST, clean air, Iceland, and more! Check it out: https://t.co/knmMUPdNSw
Exciting @LCOAstro news! New suite of telescopes set to begin surveys. Unlike other surveys, which focus on individual objects, the Local Volume Mapper will allow @sdssurveys to understand the cosmic ecosystem surrounding the Milky Way
