Astronomers! If you're in Lausanne, Switzerland, for this week's #EAS2026 conference, don't forget to swing by booth 17 to meet the SciX team and learn about how we're building on the ADS you know and love. Kelly, Sergi and Alberto will be on hand with demos, swag, and advice!

NEW PAPER: Some long weekend reading! Dr Kelly Lockhart and Dr Alberto Accomazzi are lead and co-authors on this recap of a recent meeting on language-based AI-enabled research infrastructure in astronomy & space science. Check out the open access article: https://rdcu.be/foRvV

We're at #AAS248 all week! Project Scientist for Astronomy, Dr Jennifer Lynn Bartlett, is presenting THREE posters on everything from better identifying the historic contributions of women in astro using metadata, to making your thesis findable, to how to observe Arctic twilight!

Our Project Scientist for Astrophysics, Dr Jennifer Lynn Bartlett, is presenting a poster all week at this week’s #AbSciCon26. If you’re attending virtually or you miss us in person, check out our Notorious(-ly Awesome) JLB’s poster walkthrough at bit.ly/SciXAbSciCon26

Astrobiologists ASSEMBLE! Pop by the SciX booth at #AbSciCon26 for a quick demo of Science Explorer, the latest evolution of the Astrophysics Data System (ADS). Jenny and Jennifer look forward to meeting you! And yes, we tried for the Jen hattrick. Maybe at our next event!

We’re at #AbSciCon26 all of this week! If you’re in Madison, WI, and want to know all about astrobiology and how our team have been enriching the corpus of astrobiology knowledge within SciX, find our team at our booth or our poster to learn more. We also have some cute swag!

The SciX Team are at #EGU26 in very sunny Vienna this week! Come and see Daniel and Suze to discover what we're up to at our booth on Level -2 (between the posters and the coffee - both equally tempting). Anna has a talk on Thursday and Suze has a poster on Friday. See you there!

We're excited to see you at the APS Global Physics Summit 2026 from 15th to 20th March 2026! The conference is at the Colorado Convention Center in Denver CO, and we'll be there presenting two posters and doing demos at the SciX booth. Find us at the Hyatt next to the NASA booth!

SciX libraries help us understand the impact of researchers like the ones we have highlighted for #IWD2026 and so much more. Learn more about how to build libraries for role models, literature reviews, and even living CVs with our Training Hub video guides https://scixplorer.org/scixhelp/

#Astronomers you don't have to be a Nobel Laureate to visualize collaborations using #SciX (or #ADSabs) author networks #chemistry #physics #astronomy #heliophysics #planetaryscience

Congrats new #ChemNobel Laureates, and brilliant collaborators! Can you spot another famous #NobelPrize winner? Explore how metal–organic frameworks (#MOFs) are transforming research in #EnvironmentalScience, #SpaceExploration, and #SustainableMaterials at scixplorer.org

We love our data-viz capabilities, and we love seeing our research community love them too! Thanks for sharing this, @taramurphy.bsky.social. Who else has been using our in-built data-vizualisation tools? Show us your plots 🤩 scixplorer.org

Why change a good thing 😉 We channel our energy into innovations, not renovations! One thing that has changed however is the library. It's now an open and collaborative space with a gorgeous video wall that you'll spot behind Edwin in our launch video on our YouTube channel: youtu.be/sgJ-LolRLu8?...

#SciX is not just papers; it's data and software too, plus all the connections among them. #astrophysics #heliophysics #planetaryscience #earthscience #NASAscience

Our biggest challenges don’t fit neatly into one field - and neither should their solutions. #SciX connects knowledge across disciplines, making it easier for researchers to share insights, combine methods, and spark unsiloed breakthroughs. #InterdisciplinaryResearch #OpenScience

Matthew is part of our awesome Advisory Board! As many of us as possible met for our quarterly meeting in June at the CfA. We grabbed some time with everyone there! The board brings a broad range of research experiences to help us shape our strategic development: scixplorer.org/scixblog/sci...

Finding linked data and linked software are critical! Nice quotes and reflections on ADS's leap forward!

Astronomers have long been blessed by the existence of #ADS - excited for the new @scixcommunity.bsky.social platform, expanding to other disciplines - developed via NASA #openscience funding. Look forward to trying it out! 🔭🧪

Transparent, reproducible, and open - #SciX supports research integrity by connecting curated publications, data, and software in one trusted platform. Here's what Dr Sarah Stamps and Danie Kinkade from our Advisory Board say #SciX #OpenScience #ResearchIntegrity #TrustedResearch

ADS has given astronomy THE BEST literature tools available anywhere. I almost never have to use the garbage that other academics have to suffer through (GoogleScholar, JSTOR, LexisNexis, WoS, PubMed...) Literally anytime I have to interface with those tools I weep

#SciX is created by the #ADS team & operates out of the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory under a NASA Cooperative Agreement. Created and developed by scientists, for scientists, SciX builds on decades of open research infrastructure and collaboration: https://bit.ly/CfASciXNews
