Another AMAZING USU Physics Day at Lagoon, May 12, 2023, welcomed thousands of Intermountain teens for a day of gut-churning, STEM-learning fun! #AmusementParkPhysics@PhysicsUsu@USUAggies
GASPACS AEROBOOM DEPLOYMENT CONFIRMED!!!
This picture was taken at night, but we expect to take a new picture in the sunlight and downlink it tomorrow!
#MarsHelicopter touchdown confirmed! Its 293 million mile (471 million km) journey aboard @NASAPersevere ended with the final drop of 4 inches (10 cm) from the rover's belly to the surface of Mars today. Next milestone? Survive the night. https://t.co/TNCdXWcKWE
Do you want to be a @NASAIntern?

The helmet camera of @Astro_Jessica during her first spacewalk reminded me just how I felt working outside the @Space_Station - close to Earth, thankful for the force of microgravity that kept us orbiting Earth, and in awe of the vastness (and beauty) of space
It's #SunDay! ☀️ Radiation from the Sun can wreak havoc with the electronics we send to space. Here's how we prepare spacecraft for the harshness of space https://t.co/h1NSt7fu5e
At 7:38am ET, our #AllWomanSpacewalk officially started as @Astro_Christina & @Astro_Jessica set their spacesuits to battery power, marking the beginning of their 5.5 hour excursion outside of the @Space_Station to replace a failed power controller. Watch: https://t.co/2SIb9YXlRh
#NationalSelfieDay? We’ve got a few of those! We use the Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera (EPIC) to take selfies 🤳🏽 of our sunlit side 🌍 every day, like these from June 19.
Send your name to Mars!
The Mars 2020 rover is set to launch next year — and it could have your name on it, etched on a microchip in text one one-thousandth the width of a human hair. Sign up today! >> https://t.co/eUb2Ap91WJ
It's official!
The kilogram is no longer defined by a piece of metal in Paris. The kg and other SI units are now rooted in precise quantum constants, pushing our precision to new heights . https://t.co/357UMWUZk3 via @voxdotcom#WorldMetrologyDay
He wrote the article "Particles and principles" for Physics Today in November 1964, shortly after the discovery of the omega minus particle, which bolstered SU(3) https://t.co/7Ih75TvOsg
Amazing #JFK speech. I love the ending as well: “every scientist, every engineer, every serviceman, every technician, contractor, and civil servant gives his personal pledge that this nation will move forward, with the full speed of freedom, in the exciting adventure of space.”
Can you explain quantum physics to a general audience in 45 min? Our very own Dr. Charles Torre can! He gave an excellent presentation Friday night closing out the 10th year of Science… https://t.co/uyDYN4nT1t
Doleman: “We've exposed a part of our unvierse we've never seen before... We find this result to be inspiring and we hope that everyone else will also find it as inspiring.” #RealBlackHole#ehtblackhole
