An eclipse for Einstein: During the total eclipse of 1919, Eddington confirmed that spacetime curved around the Sun deflecting light rays. Out of the shadow of the war into the shadow of the Moon, they emerged citizens of the same Earth.

All immigrant families are mystified by the other generations. As Mother’s Day approaches, Broadcast is proud to present Janna Levin’s ode to her Grandma Eve, who she calls “an enigma in some ways, an anathema in others, often unintentionally hilarious.” Eve was 101 when she passed—still lived alone, still wore heeled mules, still full of vinegar. Read the essay in full at the link in bio 🖇️🐟🧊🍽️

Self-driving cars? Self-driving spacecraft! Amazing to watch @SpaceX Dragon dock to the @ISS while traveling 17.500 miles per hour. Look ma, no hands. @NBCnewsnow @nbcnews @nasa
Repost from @startalk • 🪐 SEPTEMBER 12: Iconic astrophysicist, author, and science communicator Neil deGrasse Tyson (@neildegrassetyson) brings his popular show StarTalk (@startalk) to Pioneer Works for an exciting live engagement. No one can make the mysteries of the universe more comprehensible and fun than Neil deGrasse Tyson. Drawing on mythology, history, and literature—alongside his trademark wit and charm—Neil brings planetary science down to Earth and principles of astrophysics within reach. Join us for a special episode of StarTalk Live to celebrate the release of To Infinity and Beyond: A Journey of Cosmic Discovery, a new book written by Neil and StarTalk senior producer Lindsey Nyx Walker. Tickets are limited, so don’t miss your chance at this rare opportunity to witness the stars of the stars. ⭐️ Link in @pioneerworks bio to get your ticket today. #PWScience #StarTalk #NeildeGrasseTyson #Astronomy #Astrophysics #Space

Curious about, terrified of, or mystified by black holes? Astrophysicist @jannalevin wrote a whole book about surviving them. We won’t spoil it for you, but if you ever come face-to-face with one, it’s not looking good. “When two black holes collide, that is the most powerful system we can imagine, producing gravitational waves shy of maybe the Big Bang itself,” she said in her 2022 Conversation. Read the entire story, including her predictions about the end of the universe, on the site 🪐
