@StevenBartlett Congratulations!!!!!!

She said Yes 💍🥺 To say I was nervous is an understatement… I snuck into Morocco where she was on holiday with her family - she thought I was in Europe - and surprised her when she thought she was meeting her fam for dinner. 10 years ago, I didn’t really understand the concept of marriage - but when you meet the right person, a lot of things start to make sense ❤️

@thephysicsgirl So sorry for your loss Dianna.

Two days ago, my dad William “Bill” Cowern passed away somewhat unexpectedly. I flew last minute to Hawaii to be with him and my family for his last days. I feel incredibly lucky to be healthy enough I could finally see him after years of missing him. My dad was joking, and swearing, and crying until his last moments. You asked how he was doing and he replied with a smile, “I’m dyin’ here!” His humor and warmth were a gift he gave until the very end. Some of you might know my dad from my videos talking about getting hit by lightning (twice!) or interrupting our filming to ask me why his PDF was printing small. (Holiday time was always dad tech support time.) But I knew him as a 6’3 gentle giant. He gave the biggest bear hugs as he welcomed anyone and everyone into his home, and into his life. He was curious about people and the universe. He’s the reason I love science, math, qnd scifi. He’s the reason I’m curious about the world. He was a Vietnam war helicopter pilot in the Marines. But much of the island of Kauai (where I grew up) knew him as “The Tree Man.” He was a tree farmer, and true tree lover his whole life. He could talk to you endlessly, and humorously slowly, about trees, vitamin D, Larry Bird, or one of his many other obsessions. He just loved to share. He shared his knowledge, his kindness, his stories, and his warm love with everyone. I will miss him every day. He was the reason I went into science communication. I hope even half of his warmth and greatness lives on through me, my 4 wonderful siblings, and my amazing mom. I love you forever, Dad. 🖤💔🖤

@feztivus So far for knitting huh?

Update

@WerkgroepMeteor zeker gezien! We reden net van de sterrenwacht richting het westen en zagen 'm recht voorruit door de voorruit.

Gisteren rond 21.57 uur verscheen er een prachtige vuurbol die door tientallen mensen werd gemeld. Heb je deze ook gezien? Maak dan melding via vuurbolmelden.nl Hieronder een opname vanuit Dwingeloo, laag aan de horizon (Foto Felix Bettonvil)

@JOJOsaysbreee You lady, are beautifull. The bodysuit suits you well. Stunning.

how do you like my new bodysuit? 😏

Put the year you were born in the gif bar, and show me what you get!

@Mama_ma84 gevalletje "anderen op school zeggen dat ze vies zijn"?

"Ik wil geen tomaatjes mee naar school, die zijn vies" *zet een vol bakje tomaatjes op tafel* 10 minuten later:

@NienkeMarel @almaobs I know, and not only astronomers. I still know the theory, but couldn't do the math anymore even if my life depended on it.

@arnoudbuurman @almaobs We still use it!

Two days before the @almaobs deadline I'm teaching about Fourier transforms. I presume it's good to go back to basics 🤯

@Mama_ma84 ook wel heel shallow als iemand alleen maar geeft om je lichaam / looks.

@NienkeMarel Bedankt voor de interesante lezing vanavond!

Flicking through an astronomy book from 1935 from my grandfather for inspiration for a public talk: back then we had planets, moons, stars and....nebulae. 😄
