I’m a scientist who studies how climate change impacts our lives and the places we love. Most of us are worried, but many feel stuck on what to do. If that's the way you feel, check out this list below! We can’t fix it alone, but I know we can together. 💚

The sea looks serene, but beneath it something aches and turns, full of hunger, salt and memory. #photography

Doctors I admire: @erictopol.bsky.social

True! @erictopol.bsky.social saved uncountable lives with his excellent science communication 💛🙏

Anytime someone recommends I read an article or book by an MD I first check to see if the MD sells supplements. Dr Topol does not.

A new cover for SUPER AGERS after making the NYT bestseller list. Thanks to you for making it the #1 ranked new non-fiction book on Amazon. amazon.com/gp/new-relea...

I photographed @erictopol.bsky.social at @scripps.edu. Calm, curious, grounded in evidence. No supplement hype. No product sponsorships. Just data. Diet, sleep, exercise, prevention. In a noisy longevity world, he’s a steady voice for real science. explorers.com/eric-topol/ @nationalacademies.org

Nancy Wexler helped locate the gene for Huntington’s disease, transforming human genetics and confronting one of medicine’s cruelest inheritances. Her work turned mystery into molecule and reshaped how we think about risk, family, and fate. More: explorers.com/nancy-wexler/ #SciArt

“Inventing the Renaissance” is a history of histories of this (not so) golden age. Much of making history is simply adding new POVs to the braid as historians ask new & more diverse questions w/ each generation. I hope you’ll enjoy my effort to show the process at work! 25/25 https://buff.ly/4j6qkoS

Amid the vast whiteness of Antarctica, an Icelandair 757 rests on a polished blue ice runway at Union Glacier. The Ellsworth Mountains rise just beyond. A jet set down on a glacier, mirage more than machine.

Two particles. Vast distance. Instant connection. John Clauser tested quantum entanglement when many doubted it could even be measured. His experiments helped prove reality is stranger than Einstein imagined, laying groundwork for quantum. @nationalacademies.org explorers.com/john-clauser/ #SciArt

Satyendra Nath Bose (1894–1974) was a brilliant Indian theoretical physicist/polymath. He revolutionized quantum mechanics in 1924, developing Bose-Einstein statistics & predicting the Bose-Einstein condensate. Einstein was 1st to recognize his brilliance. Bosons are named for him. 🧪

One of the quiet failures of our time is how rarely we humanize science. We celebrate breakthroughs, but often lose sight of the people behind them. When science feels abstract, it becomes easy to dismiss or distrust it. That's why New Heroes exists www.explorers.com @nationalacademies.org #SciArt

When photographing wildlife, I love to capture the more artistic and subtle aspects: Soft afternoon light graces an elephant's beautifully textured face in Namibia's Etosha National Park. #photography #wildlife #nature #bluesky #naturephotography #wildlifephotography #sunset #art

I recently spent time with George Dyson and think you might enjoy this short piece tracing his path from the wilderness to the foundations of the digital age. It’s a story about curiosity, restraint, and paying attention to forces larger than ourselves. More: explorers.com/george-dyson...

There are scientists who map the world as it is, and then there are those who reshape it entirely. @francesarnold.bsky.social is among the latter. She is an evolutionary sculptor, bending the raw forces of biology toward remarkable ends. More: explorers.com/frances-arno... @nationalacademies.org

Good morning, San Francisco!

Living in Antarctica means order carved out of white noise. Tents stitched into the ice, steel buildings lifted on legs, planes as a lifeline. You wake to daylight that never fades, cold sharp enough to get your attention, and a silence so complete you notice your heart beating. #SciArt #Photography

Dr. Steve Chu is a Nobel Prize-winning physicist whose career defies conventional boundaries, stretching from quantum mechanics to energy policy to entirely new scientific frontiers. explorers.com/steve-chu/ @nationalacademies.org @nobelprize.org

Silence thick as fog. The Arktika slips through ice that glows blue and waits to kill you. The hull creaks, charts glow softly in the wheelhouse, and the sea stays calm just long enough to let us pass. East Greenland. #Photography

Guido Imbens is an @nobelprize.org winning economist who builds bridges, between data and understanding, between correlation and causation, between abstract mathematical theory and real-world application. #SciArt More: explorers.com/guido-imbens/

All honor to Neil Shubin: if you have never read Your Inner Fish then run right out and get a copy. It is a fabulous book.

[email protected] is a paleontologist, evolutionary biologist, and writer whose work has reshaped how we understand the deep history written into the human body. He is best known for leading the discovery of Tiktaalik, a fossil that illuminated the transition from fish to land animals.

A few months ago they let me walk around the Goldstone Deep Space Communications Complex at night. Don't know if it was the desert rain, watching skyscraper-sized antennas swivel to catch signals from beyond Saturn, or just my fillings buzzing from the radio signals, but I had goosebumps all night.

At 70,000 feet, sealed inside a full pressure suit in the cockpit of a U-2, I made this photograph of Earth. For a brief stretch of time, the only people higher were the astronauts aboard the International Space Station. #SciArt

Michelle Kaufmann sees buildings as participants in ecological and social networks rather than isolated forms. This perspective led her to biophilic architecture, designing spaces that reconnect people to daylight, vegetation, airflow, and natural rhythms. More: explorers.com/michelle-kau...

After 3 decades, astronomers have found >6000 planets, but nothing quite like our own. The new Terra Hunting Experiment in the Canary Islands is designed to find what we're really looking for: an Earth-size planet in an Earth-like orbit around a Sun-like star. 🧪🔭 www.sciencenews.org/article/eart...

[email protected] is an astronomer who makes the cosmos feel intimate, alive, even. A physicist by training, she spends her days probing one of the most elusive riddles in science: what exactly is life, and how does it begin? explorers.com/sara-imari-w... #SciArt @nationalacademies.org

Denise Hearn is a political economist and writer whose work sits at the fault lines between markets, power, and democracy. She is known for her clear-eyed analysis of corporate influence and the quiet ways economic systems shape everyday. @denisehearn.bsky.social

Portrait of @indyjohar.bsky.social. Indy is an architect and systems thinker who spends his time pulling apart the hidden machinery of modern life, always circling the same question: how did our institutions become so misaligned with the futures they claim to serve. More: explorers.com/indy-johar/

Good morning! You woke up on a small, spinning rock, orbiting an ordinary star, one of hundreds of billions in a galaxy that’s been here for a long time. And somehow, in all that vastness, you’re here, making meaning out of a single day. Feels pretty miraculous to me. #sciart

Portrait of Mike Brown. His discovery of Eris forced a reckoning: if Pluto was a planet, the definition had to change. Now he’s chasing another disruption, Planet 9, a world inferred by gravity at the solar system’s edge. explorers.com/mike-brown-t... @plutokiller.com @nationalacademies.org #sciart

Some people shape their field. Joanne Chory willed an entire revolution into being. She spent decades unraveling the genetic codes that allow plants to sense and respond. But more than her research, it was her sheer force of will that defined her. explorers.com/joanne-chory/ @nationalacademies.org

New Heroes portrait of Saul Perlmutter. He set out to measure how the universe might be slowing under gravity. Instead, his work revealed something far stranger: the universe is accelerating. @berkeleylab.lbl.gov @nationalacademies.org @nobelprize.org More: explorers.com/saul-perlmut...

Nobel laureate David Baker works at a scale we cannot see, imagining molecules that have never existed before and figuring out how to make them real. Proteins as tools. Proteins as medicine. Proteins as possibility. Still deep in the work, still focused on what has not yet been built.

I made this portrait of Alex Honnold at Union Glacier, a man who carries the stillness of the high ice in his eyes. Today he trades the Antarctic ice for the glass of Taipei 101, climbing toward the clouds without ropes. Find your rhythm on the glass, Alex. Good luck!
