Low Earth orbit is filling up. Not just with #satellites, but also with dangerous, tumbling debris. As they collide, they multiply. If we do nothing, satellites will crash, creating chaos on Earth below. Meet the people trying to prevent this disaster. spectrum.ieee.org/kessler-synd...

Starting quantum computing is like learning a new dimension of thought. Here's your toolkit to dive in with confidence.
Save this, share it with a quantum-curious friend, and let's build the future one qubit at a time.

Starting a new chapter. Born in Oak Ridge, father worked in research in the 1960's @AEC. Felt I saw the world differently. Didnt understand till discovered chemistry. Joining NQCP as CSO. NQCP focuses on quantum, atomic first. Looking to accelerating, being bold, building from Denmark globally.

Trump’s ‘Golden Dome’ plan has a major obstacle: Physics Scientists suggest the missile defense plan will face big hurdles, especially given its projected timeline and cost.

Scientists on Golden Dome: "Even the most optimistic assumptions ... would suggest that that is impossible.” www.sciencenews.org/article/gold... My story for @sciencenews.bsky.social

Wow. "the agency intends to wind down one of the sites for the celebrated Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO).... NSF had previously planned to upgrade LIGO’s facilities and the two sites are both needed to localize the celestial sources of the waves."

#Quantum device workshop Day 1/4 starts tomorrow. Excited to give 3 lectures across the beginner and advanced tracks!

This is a wonderful gathering, educational and community event

#qubit

This is true, and also good news for hominins, since it means we get to do the fun part.

Idk if it stays true forever, but plan to enjoy it while it lasts.

Antibiotic research at Harvard lab threatened by federal funding cuts Microbiologist Michael Baym studies antibiotic resistance at Harvard Medical School. He lost millions in federal funding this week.

"I'm still in shock. I know that there have been political issues around Harvard in recent weeks, but antibiotic resistance isn't one of them." My conversation with Harvard microbiologist @baym.lol, one of many researchers there who just lost millions in fed. grants. www.wbur.org/news/2025/05...

“If I were a science journalist writing an article about a supposedly shocking development like this, I would email some experts and check to see if it’s for real. But plenty of science journalists don’t bother with that anymore: they just believe the press releases.”
