#teach180 day 4. Just noticed this chrome tool that shows up only when I'm on a page in our school LMS. What do you wonder about that? #aiethics #aieducation

Really cool to just watch this one, but there's also probably a really excellent problem in this video. #iTeachPhysics

My Dad passed 23 years ago today. This is him working at the Tandem Mirror Experiment / Mirror Fusion Test Facility at Livermore, sometime between 1981-1983 when he was in his early 30s.

I resolved to be a physicist when I was 9, because I might "get to be his boss someday".

I don't have a camera attachment for my telescope, so I held my phone up to the eyepiece -- this was the best shot I got. The clouds were intermittent and we couldn't see much at totality. #Iteachphysics
