@CaryKelly11 @arqnavatwuit It’s almost like there’s a discipline entirely devoted to paper folding developed by this same culture. 🤔

Happy 125th anniversary to @DenverMuseumNS ! 🎉 From Edwin Carter’s tiny 1868 Breckenridge cabin to a world-class museum, it all began with one man’s passion for Colorado’s wildlife. Here’s to curiosity that endures! 🏔️✨

The #6888th Battalion, trailblazing Black women who processed millions of pieces of WWII mail under impossible conditions. "No Mail, Low Morale."

In Solvang, CA today and came across this amazing 1917 registered cover sent from here to Denmark! Mailed by Rev. Chr. Andersen with 5¢ Washington & 10¢ Franklin stamps. Incredible to see Solvang’s Danish roots literally stamped in postal history. #Philately #Solvang

📮 On this day in 1877, the Leadville, CO post office opened, sparking a vital hub in the heart of the Silver Boom! As a postal history collector and descendant of Leadville native Edith Alice Macia (b. Sept 17, 1884), I’m celebrating this milestone. 🥂 #Philately #Leadville

In science history, on April 4, 1925, Wolfgang Pauli published his groundbreaking Exclusion Principle, revolutionizing quantum physics by showing no two electrons can occupy the same quantum state. His work became fundamental to understanding atomic structure. 🔬 #QuantumHistory
