Out there in the deep cold of outer space, beyond the orbit of Neptune, something wonderful is happening. Tonight, as it reaches its aphelion, Halley's Comet begins banking back towards Earth. Mark your calendars for 6/9/61 when an old friend returns. 🧪 🔭 ☄️ www.space.com/halleys-come...

One of my favorite memories from summer. Took our REU students and a few grads up to Yerkes (more pictures of that later) on the 4th of July weekend. We watched the fireworks and the moon rising from a dock on the George Williams College campus. An all too brief moment of calm.

The 2023 Illinois IDEAS REU students watching the moon rise over Lake Geneva, WI.

Joined Threads because it seems like the best way to nudge Twitter off the edge. Joined Bluesky because Zuckerberg isn't appreciably better than Musk.
