Cute photo of SPS at the Invention Convention!! 💛❤️💛

oSTEM and @SPSCMU are hosting a Q&A session for anyone interested in our GRE prep course on campus. Use this link to join the meeting this Thursday at 7:30: cmich.webex.com/meet/moore1ah

‼️MEETING TODAY‼️ Our meeting will be tonight in discord from 7-8pm. We’ll be playing the Wikipedia game, so get your thinking caps on!

Somebody did a simulation of a giant 🍌 orbiting around the 🌍 at the distance of the ISS. And, surprisingly, it challenges our intuitions of how orbiting objects would look like in the sky.

Hello World! We will be meeting tonight from 7-8pm to listen to a talk by the one and only @lacluyze 💛Hope to see you there!!❤️

Hi everyone! Hopefully your week has gone well so far!! We have a meeting today from 7-8pm on discord where eboard will discuss some coolio physics news Hope to see you there! ❤️💛❤️

Happy first day of classes!! 📚✏️

I just rendered the smallest ever Christmas tree: a fully decorated pinene molecule! Ok, the shape is not conventional, but still I claim the Guinness record. #lifeatcentral

Look cute – and I won’t delete later. Greetings from the Red Planet! I took another selfie as I explored a new spot dubbed “Mary Anning,” where I'm analyzing drill samples. I conducted experiments on them in my continued search for organic molecules. go.nasa.gov/3eUR9f9

We just announced that - for the first time - we’ve confirmed H2O💧 in sunlit☀️ areas of the Moon. This indicates that water might be distributed across the lunar surface. go.nasa.gov/2Hxcy1k

Beware of the Skull and Crossbones Nebula! ☠️ NGC 2467 is a star-forming region characterized by a haunting appearance. What do you see within the clouds of dust and gas? A skull? The Terminator? Or maybe a monkey? Credit: ESO

You can measure the speed of light at home using just a microwave and a bar of chocolate!

How to gain eternity (a simple recipe) 1) Calculate the equivalent energy of your rest mass (say, for m=70 kg, E=mc²=6.3·10^18 J) 2) Choose a preferred frequency (i.e. azure light f=6.15·10^14 Hz) (1/n)
