One of the most advanced, AI-focused research tools in the U.S. is coming to Georgia Tech. Thanks to a $20 million NSF award, GT and partners will build a powerful new supercomputer. b.gatech.edu/4lZ7Pn6

No AI, this is a real photo taken by Percy’s engineering cameras of astronomical twilight on #Mars! You can see Deimos in the sky too. I worked pretty hard to plan, execute, and analyze this image, and it came out beautifully! A bit noisy, but it was very dark out after all. #astro #planetary

A court ruling has paused the National Science Foundation’s reduction-in-force and reorganization plans, but employees are still worried about what’s to come. cen.acs.org/policy/resea... 🧪

Kavli IPMU, UCLA & University of Osaka researchers are using IceCube data from the Squid Galaxy (NGC 1068) to propose a new source of high energy neutrinos: neutron decay from helium breakup in the galaxy's jet www.ipmu.jp/en/20250508-... #KavliAstro #KavliInstitute @icecubeneutrino.bsky.social 🦑✨

WATCH: U.S. Representatives will speak during a special hour dedicated to the National Science Foundation and recent attempts to dismantle the agency. Tune into CSPAN to watch it live today at 4:45 p.m. ET www.c-span.org//

Great news for Europe, but this 2-year budget is about what NSF spends in one year on GEO:Polar Programs alone. It's a drop in the bucket compared to the American research investments Trump has demolished #saveNSF

This list of cancelled NSF grants is so depressing, man. So many CAREER and REU awards, just gone. Because Revenge of the Losers. grant-watch.us/nsf-data.html

BREAKING:The National Science Foundation (NSF) has put a cork in its grantmaking pipeline after billionaire Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) set up shop at the agency this week. | Science | AAAS www.science.org/content/arti...

Interesting read on how geophysical techniques have been used to map the landscape under Antarctica’s ice. These findings may have an important impact on predictions of future sea level rise. 🧪⚒️ www.nationalgeographic.com/environment/...

With support from @NSF /Office of Polar Programs/Antarctic Sciences, all US scientists and anyone interested in US Antarctic #research is encouraged to attend. There is no registration fee. 3/4

FUNDING OPPORTUNITY: Office of Polar Programs Postdoctoral Research Fellowships (OPP-PRF) The @NSF Office of Polar Programs offers postdoctoral research fellowships to provide opportunities for early career scientists to accomplish one or more of the following goals: 1/5

Antarctica's icebergs are famous for their brilliant whites and blues 🧊 Then, there's the startling green, brown, black and even marbled hues - as seen at the Denman Glacier ice front. But how does it happen? @kaihezak.bsky.social explains ⬇️ #DMV #blog antarctic.org.au/mysteries-of...

A newly established network of U.S. academic institutions including @ucsandiego.bsky.social has formed to provide coordinated support for climate scientists in America. Learn more about the U.S. Academic Alliance for the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. ⬇️

Heads up Georgia climate advocates: apply here! "Not enough Georgians know about the benefits that clean energy brings to homes & communities--and studies show that when we discuss these climate solutions with people we know, neighbors and friends are more likely to pay attention and take action."

What happens in the secret world under the Antarctic ice? 🤔 The international team on board the Schmidt Ocean Institute’s research vessel, the 'Falkor (too)' have been investigating a newly exposed section of seafloor, never before accessible to humans. Full story 👇 www.bas.ac.uk/media-post/t...

At an Alaska volcano data indicates an eruption soon is possible, but with #volcanoes it's impossible to forecast exactly if, when and how much. USGS data is critical to timely warnings for aircraft and residents, cuts put such data, warnings, and alerts at risk. #MtSpurr 🧪🌋https://wapo.st/4iJ3zqk

A study in Nature Food assesses the future climatic suitability of global croplands for 30 major food crop types, quantifying the changes in potential food crop diversity given climate conditions across four global warming levels. https://go.nature.com/3Dp5LEk #foodstudies 🧪

The talk by @paul-bierman.bsky.social "A landscape under the ice: Camp Century, Greenland" is up on our Youtube page: youtu.be/62_9NHPdC54?... See you next week!

We’ve just published the most detailed map yet of the landscape beneath Antarctica’s ice sheet (called Bedmap3), and we learnt some pretty cool facts about Antarctica that you can use to impress your pals. Ready? Graphic: Hamish Pritchard et al

Happening tonight! 🌕→🔴 A total #LunarEclipse will turn the Moon deep red with the best views from the Americas. Step outside, take a deep breath, and experience the eclipse 🔭🧪 science.nasa.gov/solar-system...

See that little gray rock? That's Deimos, the mysterious outer moon of Mars, spied yesterday as the Hera spacecraft buzzed by the Red Planet. Little Deimos is just 12km (10 miles) wide. Such a cool shot. 🧪🔭 www.esa.int/Space_Safety...
