Sorry Bluesky, but I have to log off because I'm listening in to a Teams meeting and the 9/11 cheerleading routine keeps scrolling by and I am having a hard time maintaining my composure.
Been tons of negative stories recently about weather balloons, but let's tell a positive tale today: WindBorne Systems completed an extremely cool mission to fly a balloon into typhoon Dolphin, and NOAA is working with the private sector to get this kind of data into its models. tinyurl.com/yc673875

12 August: for over one minute, day turns to night 🌑 thanks to a total solar eclipse. But will it be visible from your place? Check out these maps to find out. If you're close to the path of totality, but not within it, it is totally worth the travel! 1/2 🔭 🧪 #EuropeanSolarEclipse

I think of wrapping presents and folding fashionable women's clothing as lessons in topology. You know there's a correct way, but theory provides that a better way may exist

The physics and chemistry of water is ever fascinating. This paper looks at how a proton moves through water - not as a single particle drifting along, but by 'hopping' from one molecule to the next. 🧪

The infrared spectra of the aqueous proton show dynamic character beyond the classical Zundel H+(H2O)2 and Eigen H+(H2O)3 structural motifs. Fully quantum modelling the larger H+(H2O)6 complex provide...
