Bücher von extrem coolen Menschen kaufen macht noch ein bisschen mehr Spaß als sowieso schon. 🤍
(Erst recht, wenn man eigentlich damit rechnet es bestellen zu müssen und dann haben die es einfach schon da.)

Others find peace and calm in knitting, I find it in preparing slides for my astronomy lectures for curious non-physics students :-)
I'm quite pleased with my step-by-step spectroscopy slide, which starts with a "spectral glasses" photo and goes from there to a spectrum-as-diagram. 🧪🔭⚛️

I have a bazillion new German followers (hello!), and I'm getting interviewed for German public radio in an hour about "sunlight as a service", and I don't speak any German and I've never been to Germany.

Today I learned that there are only three English cities with an electrical consumption greater than 200 megawatts: London, Manchester and Birmingham. By comparison, the people who want to build AI data centres here, which nobody asked for, want a supply of up to 1 gigawatt (1,000 megawatts) for […]
