The next pixar movie will be called Particles and it will be about a strange quark trying to escape confinement with the help of their comic-relief best friend neutrino. They will learn it's ok to be asymptotically free and their color doesn't matter.

On the summer solstice this Wed, landmarks around the world (including CN Tower / Tour CN!) will be lit up for #ShowYourStripes Day. This day uses clever data viz to raise awareness about extreme warming around the globe due to climate crisis. Spoiler: the CN Tower will be red AF

Super excited about this! Pulsar timing arrays are tools for detecting waves in spacetime in response to big gravitational disturbances (like supermassive black hole collisions & particularly dramatic early universe events). This is the opening of a new window on the cosmos! 🌌👀

Science is a Drag was featured on Quirks & Quarks! 🧪🎉 This month, we hosted our biggest event yet with 4 new performers willing to share their love of science in drag. If you missed the show, give the doc a listen to keep the #PrideMonth vibes flowing ⤵️ cbc.ca/radio/quirks/s…

Wanna understand some of the biggest science news of the year (maybe the decade?) better than 99% of people? That new should be coming out tomorrow evening, but we know a bit about it...so here's a thread:

The news is out! The NANOGrav PFC pulsar timing array collaboration has detected a background of cosmic gravitational waves rippling through our Universe! Let’s talk about it! (Full press conference tomorrow, nanograv.org/news/2023Annou…) 1/n

TL;DR EL5 on Pulsar Timing Arrays: Remember when the first telescope got made and then we spent four hundred years continuously upgrading both the telescopes and our understanding of the universe? Well, that's happening again. We have a whole new universe detector.

Here is a quick 60-second explainer on the new Gravitational Wave Background result! I hope you all like it! youtu.be/9OoYvScSCK8

Check out NANOGrav PFC's new short science video about pulsar timing arrays! The images are stunning! youtube.com/watch?v=c2EKbv…

🔔IceCube results to be published in Science Magazine tomorrow! For the first time, IceCube found evidence of high-energy neutrino emission from our galaxy ➡️ bit.ly/3JBfqYa 📸: IceCube/NSF (Lily Le & Shawn Johnson)/ESO (S. Brunier) #OurGalaxyInNeutrinos

Gotta say, getting to use my IG username on the 🧵 app is one of MANY things making it more appealing. I’m @ science.sam over there (and on the clock app too — the brand cohesion 🤌🏼) Say hey if you’re on there too!

Join us for Coffee and a Keynote with Samantha Yammine, PhD, on September 30th at 11:00 am ET! She'll be discussing "Social Media in the Science Classroom: the good, the bad, and the ugly." Don't miss this insightful session for educators of all grades. bit.ly/44Mm6dM

Sam Altman I’m curious how well sora handles jargon (vs descriptions) for biomedical processes, especially considering there is not a ton of clearly annotated, open access video source material

Wow 🤩 amazing opportunity to make your research reach broad international audiences, with one of the most inspiring science communicators. #SciComm #AcademicTwitter

Seeing our planet for the first time, a dream decades in the making. You’re seeing so many emotions intertwined. Excitement, awe, and pride - but to be honest a little fear and confusion too. You just launched on a rocket and you’re seeing something you’ve never seen before
