Physics + inventor siblings right here.
Did you know that Marvel Comics character, T'Challa, Black Panther alter ego, had a PhD in Physics? He was also deemed one of the top 5 geniuses by fellow physicist, Bruce Banner. We learned this from @ProfTSearles in his talk. Representation, even fictional, matters.

Today marks 2 years in space for #ParkerSolarProbe! This mission has gone faster & closer to the Sun than any other spacecraft — all to help scientists unravel the mysteries of our star and its effects on the solar system. Explore the first findings: go.nasa.gov/3a66s0u
So beautiful! 🤩
#HubbleFriday This Hubble image highlights the dwarf irregular galaxy KK 246 (or ESO 461-036), located in a region of mostly empty space 150 million light-years across called the Local Void. Other galaxies in the picture lie farther away, beyond the void: go.nasa.gov/3e4Xjre
