- Thank you, Joe Tenn, for creating the Astronomy Genealogy Project & for revealing the intellectual legacies & academic networks that shape our science today aas.org/posts/news/2... #AstroGen #HistSci #astrophysics #PhD #Dissertation
- #Astronomers Did you work on Astro-1? Astro-2? #uv #spaceshuttle missions? 35th & 30th anniversary event planning is underway Read Nicolle Zellner's announcement to join festivities and celebrate their #NASAscience aas.org/posts/news/2... #astrophysics #instrumentation #NASA 🏛️#histsci
- Thank you, @rebeccacharbon.bsky.social for an eloquent summary of the far-reaching effects of the US Nautical Almanac Office 1869 eclipse expeditions and their attempts at "physical astronomy" #histsci #astrophysics #spectroscopy #physics #USNO #Navy #solareclipse
- Einen schönen Tag der Arbeit wünsche ich Euch. #LaborDay in Austria falls on a #crossquarter day, roughly halfway between #vernalequinox and #summersolstice, as the days continue to lengthen. #timekeepying #calendar #solstice #equinox #astrophysics #earthscience #EGU25 #EduSky
- #EGU25 I'll be with Mike Kurtz giving @scixcommunity.bsky.social demos all day in the #NASA booth. Come learn how our #digitallibrary supports your #openscience and transforms how you explore #science literature (& #data & #software)
- Looking forward to working with you to promote @scixcommunity.bsky.social and #openscience
- I'm excited to be giving my first #NASA hyperwall talks at #EGU25 and helping #earthscience researchers use @scixcommunity.bsky.social #heliophysics #planetaryscience #astrophysics
- Joanne Simpson (1923-2010) 1st woman in the U.S. to earn #meteorology PhD pilot her research & models revolutionized our understanding of #clouds & #hurricanes, helping to shape modern #weather forecasting #WomensHistoryMonth #HistSci #WomeninSTEM #atmosphere 🍎
- #APSsummit25 was a wonderful opportunity to show how @scixcommunity.bsky.social expansion benefits #physicists as well as #astrophysicists #astrophysics #physics #digitallibrary #digitaltransformation
- Enjoyed meeting so many fellow #physicists at #APSsummit25 & showing them the power of @scixcommunity.bsky.social to make their #science #research more efficient and effective #digitaltransformation #professionaldevelopment
- For those who celebrate, may your heart join nature in singing the joy of #spring this #vernalequinox. Consider our #seasons with #Earth tilted ~23.4 deg, imagine seasons on #Uranus tilted ~82.2 deg. #astrophysics #planet #equinox #calendar #timekeeping 🍎
- Ya'll come see us soon. We'd love to help you find what you are looking for.
- Yueyi Che inspires me with her #earthscience and #art. Looking forward to showing colleagues the power of @scixcommunity.bsky.social to support their #research.
- Looking forward to seeing #APSsummit25 colleagues in the Exhibit Hall and sharing techniques for #openscience

- Looking forward to meeting #APS2025 colleagues. We're available all week to demonstrate the power of this #science #digitallibrary. #digitaltransformation #physics #research
- Abraham Sharp (1653-1742) #mathematician #astronomer instrument maker calculated #pi to 72 digits in 1699 exceeding the previous record of 39 digits in 1630 #piday #instrumentation #astrophysics #STEM 🍎

- #heliophysics here is an excellent opportunity for an early career scientist.
- Still adjusting to #DaylightSavingTime? During #WWII, #UK used "double summer time." Springing forward 2 hours (UTC+2), but only falling back 1 hour (UTC+1)🍎. Economic & health effects of DST remain controversial. #DST #timekeeping #time #histsci
- For those who celebrate, laissez les bons temps rouler. #Lent is coming #MardiGras & #AshWednesday are 41/40 days before #Easter (exclude Sundays), as determined by #fullmoon after #vernalequinox Computes paschalis: discipline of calculating these dates #astrophysics #timekeeping #calendar 🍎
- For those who celebrate, may discipline & devotion during this holy month bring peace & blessings. Ramadan Mubarak! #Ramadan begins w/ 1st sighting of waxing crescent #moon. Purely lunar Islamic #calendar shifts w/ respect to civil (lunisolar) calendar & #seasons. #astrophysics #timekeeping 🍎
- Numa Pompilius, legendary Roman king, added #February to #calendar Avoiding "unlucky" even numbers, he used 29/31 day #month s. Giving Feb 28 #day ensured odd number of days/yr. Unfortunately, with 355 days, his #year drifted with respect to the #seasons. #timekeeping #astrophysics #histsci 🍎
- @erikablumenfeld.bsky.social has found inspiration from astronomical photographic plates that stand at the intersection of #science, #history, and beauty. What other works of #art might they inspire? #astrophysics #histsci #astrophotography 🏛️@harvardplatestacks.bsky.social
- Since 1968, 3rd Monday in February is a federal holiday known as George Washington's Birthday not #PresidentsDay & not ever actually his birthday (Julian or Gregorian #calendar) #WashingtonsBirthday #History
- Barbara A. Williams, radio #astronomer 1st African-American woman to earn PhD in astronomy @UofMaryland in 1981 expanded our knowledge of compact #galaxy clusters, galactic evolution #BlackHistoryMonth #WomenInSTEM #histsci #radioastronomy #astrophysics 🍎

- Thank you @aaccomazzi.bsky.social for everything you do to make ADS/@scixcommunity.bsky.social such a valuable resource for astrophysics research. Perhaps ADSUG should assess ADS disaster recovery plans & community expectations so that this vital gateway to scholarly literature remains accessible.

- Thank you @sjarmak.bsky.social and @scixcommunity.bsky.social for what you are doing to expand ADS services to planetary science, heliophysics, and earth science. The comprehensive, interdisciplinary collection will make all our science better.
- Thank you for raising this concern. As a former ADSUG chair, perhaps you would like to ask them to assess ADS disaster recovery plans and whether they meet current community needs. The 2024 report has not yet been submitted.

- For those who celebrate, blessings at #Epiphany. May you find the light you seek. Despite Giotto's depiction (c1305 CE), #starofbethlehem was probably NOT #comet. He saw #HalleysComet in 1301 CE, which was also visible in 12 BCE. #seasonoflight #astrophysics #histsci #3kingsday 🍎

- The search for metaphorical light during the winter darkness seems to be a powerful theme across multiple cultures. We seem to have a deep need for both flames.
- Thank you, St. Peter's (#ArlVA) & Grace Church (Bremo Bluff VA) for inviting me to give an #astrophysics perspective on the #StarofBethlehem. Despite several physical possibilities #comet? occultation? we cannot be certain what inspired #magi's journey. #Sesaonoflight #Epiphany #histsci
- To those who celebrate, chag urim sameach. Peace to you at #Hannukkah. Festival begins on Kislev 25 of Jewish lunisolar #calendar that aligns w/ late Nov or Dec in the Gregorian calendar; its 8 days celebrate the rededication of the Temple. #seasonoflight #winter #season #timekeeping #solstice 🍎

- May you and your family experience all the joy and blessings of this holy season.
- For those who celebrate, Habari gani? Ujima (collective work & responsibility). Happy #Kwanzaa! Running Dec. 26-Jan. 1, festival draws on African 1st fruits celebrations. #Seasons are reversed in northern/southern hemispheres, so #wintersolstice (north) is #summersolstice (south). #seasonoflight
