ADS has given astronomy THE BEST literature tools available anywhere. I almost never have to use the garbage that other academics have to suffer through (GoogleScholar, JSTOR, LexisNexis, WoS, PubMed...)

Literally anytime I have to interface with those tools I weep

Finding linked data and linked software are critical! Nice quotes and reflections on ADS's leap forward!

Transparent, reproducible, and open - #SciX supports research integrity by connecting curated publications, data, and software in one trusted platform. Here's what Dr Sarah Stamps and Danie Kinkade from our Advisory Board say #SciX #OpenScience #ResearchIntegrity #TrustedResearch

We have lift-off! Science Explorer, or #SciX to its friends, is excited to be your new home for open, connected, and trustworthy science. Explore. Share. Discover at scixplorer.org #OpenScience #ResearchInfrastructure #SpaceScience #EarthScience #PlanetaryScience

From the Center for Astrophysics | Harvard & Smithsonian and working under a NASA Cooperative Agreement, SciX builds on decades of #Open #ResearchInfrastructure such as #ADS. Read more in this blog post on the NASA Science Data Portal: https://science.data.nasa.gov/features-events/scix-launch

What is #SciX? Think of it as your one-stop platform for exploring #research across #EarthScience, #EnvironmentalScience, and #SpaceScience, including #PlanetaryScience, #Heliophysics, #Geology, #Geophysics, #AtmosphericScience, and #Oceanography. Watch our new video! bit.ly/WelcomeToSciX

A natural evolution of ADS, SciX brings its powerful capabilities into new domains. Expanded coverage, intuitive search, smart recommendations, and tools for collaboration. SciX makes research more discoverable, connected, and accessible than ever before. https://scixplorer.org/scixblog/scix-launch

#SciX is created by the #ADS team & operates out of the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory under a NASA Cooperative Agreement. Created and developed by scientists, for scientists, SciX builds on decades of open research infrastructure and collaboration: https://bit.ly/CfASciXNews

📢 SciX seeks a heliophysics researcher to connect SciX with their community (2-year term). For more info: s.si.edu/4kD7FSo

ADS/SciX has been experiencing a DDoS attack. This attack resulted in several orders of magnitude higher levels of traffic than usual. We have increased our resource scaling capabilities and blacklisted the 100s of thousands of offending IPs and the issue is hopefully resolved.
