I've been on BlueSky for exactly two years today. I'm having a brilliant time. Thank you for the follows, likes, reposts and interactions. Here's a pic I took of the great Orion Nebula, also two years ago. 🔭 🧪 🎨 #astrophotography #SciArt #photography #StormHour #ThePhotoHour

Ceramic jewelry update ✨

Bisque firing is complete. A little less glamorous than glaze firing but still pretty cool!

This photo taken on Dec. 16, 2024 shows the central detector of the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) in Jiangmen, south China's Guangdong Province. The world's largest transparent spherical detector began operation in China on Tuesday, making it the world's first operational ultra-large scientific facility dedicated to neutrino research with ultra-high precision.

Want to Get Away? NASA Now Offers More Than 6,000 Alien Worlds to Daydream About It’s a crowded galaxy, the latest exoplanet tally shows

We've reached 6,000 confirmed exoplanets! I talked with @aussiastronomer.bsky.social about where things go from here. (A great graphic by @unamandita.bsky.social visualizes the amazing jumps in planet finds since the first ones were confirmed in the 1990s.)

My wife asked me yesterday if I needed more Science Socks. I looked at her like she was speaking in tongues. She said, "Right, dumb question. I'll see if there are any you don't have yet."

You also need more Science Socks. Trust me on this. Go pre-order some.

Thanks for the support Kevin 😁

I own a pair of these deep field socks, and they're what I've worn to so many public JWST talks and they always get a great reaction from folks who notice. I might have to pick up a second pair, not because mine have worn out, but just because I love them so much.
