I can't stop looking at the images taken by ISS astronauts during the Nov 11-13 G4 event. Here, I have taken a screenshot from Jonny Kim's video showing a SAR arc detached from the main auroral oval.

Reading a 1950 Annual Review of social psychology, and struck by the extended discussion of the "failure of the polls" vis a vis 1948 presidential election (Famous "Dewey Beats Truman" photograph). Time is a flat circle.
The failure of the polls in the Presidential election of 1048 had many consequences, not all of them grave. Whether the events of November 1948 cut down the expansion of opinion research into new areas or seriously damaged the prestige of social psychology is something that cannot yet be judgedThe pollsters over-reached the capabilities of the poll as a predicting device. THe election was so close that it is unlikely that there was justification on the part of polls to publish a flat prediction concerning outcome.

Two years into the AI boom, it's imperative we understand the true power of "AGI"—as a narrative tool useful for winning investment, talent and headlines. My report for AI Now details how OpenAI used the story of a rising AI that will replace humans to replace the need for an actual business model.

In 2018, Dame Jocelyn Bell Burnell was awarded the Breakthrough Prize in Physics for her discovery of pulsars. The judges and founders of that prize did what the Nobel Committee should have done. She used the prize money to set up a fund supporting students from under-represented groups. (11/n)

Popular images of space junk are not to scale because it would be impossible to fit more than a handful of objects in one image. But they are a powerful piece of science communication and have played a role in mobilising public interest. 🧪

this is literally what it feels like to have astigmatism
A wider field view of Westerlund 1. A dense cluster of bright stars, each with six large and two small diffraction spikes, due to the telescope’s optics. They have a variety of sizes depending on their brightness and distance from us in the cluster, and different colours reflecting different types of star. Patches of billowing red gas can be seen in and around the cluster, lit up by the stars. Small stars in the cluster blend into a background of distant stars and galaxies on black.
