A new analysis of Titan data from Cassini finds that the icy moon likely does not have a buried ocean. #astronomy physicstoday.aip.org/news/data-rean…

⚠️ @USDOL expected to propose higher H-1B wage levels in early 2026. Our analysis shows that international physicists hired at wage level I could see required salary increases of ~$19K (29% ⬆️). Full analysis 👇 bit.ly/49XybTh

While the Webb Telescope is a story of heroic perseverance, SOFIA represents the "vexed question of when to cut your losses.” Full story: bit.ly/4tdVDDq #Space #NASA #ScienceHistory #Astronomy

To every physics student who has ever doubted if they belong: YOU DO. 🫵 Arlene Modeste Knowles shares a powerful reminder: Talent is cultivated, not innate. Struggle is just part of the process. Read her open letter: bit.ly/44lrvee #YouBelongInSTEM #ImposterSyndrome

Zoe Adams is processing the Gloria Lubkin papers at the Niels Bohr Library, ensuring women in physics get the recognition they deserve. Enable this vital work: bit.ly/3KuVWby #WomenInScience #PhysicsHistory #AIP

Physics provided a leg up for getting into law school, says Louisa Eberle. It also gave her a skill set that she uses for her work in energy policy at the Regulatory Assistance Project. #whatcanphysicistsdo #physics #energypolicy physicstoday.aip.org/news/louisa-eb…

Newton’s letters are currently more legible than Stephen Hawking’s floppy disks. 💾 Digital is not eternal. We spoke with Leontien Talboom about the challenges of Hawking's disks & her initiative to help archivists with legacy media. Read the interview: bit.ly/4iRrjcI

@ScienceUnderSec AI provides so much promise to accelerate the pushing forward of the frontiers of science and by extension human welfare. Thanks @ScienceUnderSec for your leadership.

In yesterday’s opening statement, I described how the Genesis Mission will reshape scientific discovery by uniting high-performance computing, AI, quantum, and scientific instruments to help researchers solve complex problems at unprecedented speed.

We know from @AIP_HQ’s research that foreign talent is a vital component of the America’s success at driving scientific frontiers forward.
