Scientist knew CO2 warms the atmosphere since 1859 as J.Tyndall experimentally demonstrated…or did he? Fact is 3yr earlier a #women in #STEM published her results w same findings, her name was Eunice Newton Foote & this is her nearly forgotten discovery: 🧪#AcademicSky 🎢

Although I agree with the top 2 of this list, I find it a crime that the film "Contact" based on Carl Sagan's book wasn't event mentioned. And what about "Arrival"?? A bit disappointed of fellow physicists 😛 #AcademicSky 🧪 🥼❄️ 🔭 🎢 ⚛️

Space weather can significantly impact life on Earth and our daily technology. I recently spoke on #SciLux with Dr. Carl Shneider from SnT (@uni.lu) about this fascinating field!

The glacier retreat allowed to find his rests lost in 1959; this's the story of @bas.ac.uk #Meteorologist Dennis "Tink" Bell. Ironically global warming is helping to acknowledge those who gave their lives to Polar exploration whose early research allows us a better understanding of the #Climate 🧪❄️🎢

Science needs to stay objective & factual, this @nature.com article #TimPalmer presents a compelling argument on why basic climate research is paramount. Avoid extremes of misleading arguments by political parties/ immoderate conclusion by @wwattribution.bsky.social like people is detrimental. 🧪 ❄️🎢🥼
Just how bad will climate change get? The only way to know is to fund basic research
Predictions of global warming are uncertain. That’s why we need to keep finding out how the climate system works.

Good that the issues with peer-review (PR) are trying to be tackled. However, schemes like distributed PR or journals requiring authors to take care of PR process before submitting are just passing the hurdle to authors while journals' APC contine to increase! How to understand that? #AcademicSky 🧪

Physicist John Archibald Wheeler was born #OTD in 1911.

A titan of 20th century science, he introduced the S-Matrix; developed (with Bohr) the first general theory of fission; coined "worm hole" and popularized “black hole”; and trained Feynman, Everett, Thorne, and many others. 🧪 ⚛️

Unlike many press coverage only focusing in fine tuning modeling results to support #AMOC collapse, this @nature.com article highlights scientist different hypothesis & theories on what could happen with the #AMOC in the future climate. Main point, we need observations, #science is lead by data. 🧪❄️🌊

Most of the hard work is done in the lab, but the inspiration, ideas for research and breakthroughs come from unexpected places and moments. That's why scientific in-person conferences are still places where great #science is forged. #quantum #mechanics #iTeachMath #iTeachPhysics

This @nature.com article delusional hints (ok for Computer Science?): "Identity what you want, interview several potential PIs, get support from other postdocs..."
The reality in physical sciences: Send 100+ job applications, one might work out, that's the right PI for you, period. #AcademicSky 🧪 ❄️

If #conference attendees are denied entrance at country's border control... will conference organizations #refund the registration/abstract fees? If they cannot ensure refund, they should move the venue out to another country. What's your policy @agu.org ?? 🧪 #academicsky #AGU2025 #NewOrleands
