Dear Physicists and Physics fans, I would like to encourage you to celebrate
#WomenInPhysics
Day this Friday, November 7th. Why November 7th? Because it is the birthday of two of the most impactful women physicists of the 1900's: Marie Curie and Lise Meitner. 🎢 ⚛️ 🧪 👩🔬

My dearest wife, It is week two of the Siege of Portland, and still these barbarians will not yield to our troops. We have severed the cords of their latte machines but they are making cowboy coffee in their camps, where loud ukulele songs of resistance even now drift in on the breeze.

We who live in San Francisco have been living under morning and evening fog for many weeks, and those otherwise most beautiful times of day are muffled in gray, the low cloud cover that means there are no direct light, no crisp shadows, no long vistas. It can get dismal.

Many others are posting abt this too but this graphic viscerally shows how dire the presidential budget is for NASA 🔭🧪and worldwide astronomy. I can’t express how sad this makes me, as an American scientist. And it’s mostly already paid for projects, so also no logic in terms of saving money.
