Gravitational waves researchers must be reeling this weekend. Not only is the National Science Foundation proposing to close one of the celebrated LIGO labs, but the NASA budget seeks to end US involvement (again!) in the European-led Laster Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA).

I think Elon is unhappy that Wikipedia is not for sale. I hope his campaign to defund us results in lots of donations from people who care about the truth. If Elon wanted to help, he'd be encouraging kind and thoughtful intellectual people he agrees with to engage.

Keep your eye on the donut and not on the hole.

In memory of David Lynch, we will continue to explore the otherworldly and the unknown. We will focus not on the loss, but on what we gained from the years we shared this planet with you. We will see you in our dreams.

when people talk about how great Chicago is they cite the architecture, the nightlife, the culture, but one of the best things about Chicago is that exactly zero of these “adults who are afraid of Chicago” live here.

if the nyt workers are able to successfully prevent the needle from being published it will be one of the greatest achievements for organized labor since the invention of the weekend

We were so proud to celebrate graduate student Jillian Rastinejad (@jillian_rast) at her official induction as a @NorthwesternU Presidential Fellow. Her research on origins of r-process clearly resonates across disciplines, and we are thankful to witness it! 📸: B. Robinson
