This is an historic day for Canada: one of our own scientists is launching into space and I could not be more proud. I’m especially excited for the young Canadians today who are watching @Astro_DavidS and being inspired to pursue a career in science and research.

The kilogram will no longer be defined by a physical object locked away in a vault, but instead by the beautifully universal Planck’s constant: h = 6.626 070 15 × 10−34 J s 🎉

One small step closer to science, “for all times, for all people”

Happy #IndigenousPeoplesDay! Today we honor the legacy of Mary Golda Ross, one of the first female (and Native!) engineers. Ross is best known for her mathematical genius during the early days of spaceflight and a dashing appearance on “What’s My Line?" https://t.co/xigRqBYZcR

Today when you write it is "Oct 4", you are not just writing the date but also the name of one of the coolest and (arguably) most important proteins in your body!

The protein Oct4 was crucial for the earliest of stem cells that formed the blueprint for the body you have today.
