The BICEP2 announcement was seven years ago today - here’s a photo I took of all the excited cosmologists. (Little did we know!)
Fascinating!
Today is a special day for The INTO THE IMPOSSIBLE Podcast - I am releasing my 100th episode! Barry Barish is my guest and you DO NOT WANT TO MISS his thoughts on Black Holes, the future of LIGO, Nobel Prizes, & especially, the Imposter Syndrome!

Amazing panorama from SPT winter over Geoff Chen! The #milkyway is above SPT and DSL Lab, with the glow from the sun (still several deg below horizon) coming out in the long exposure. On the right, #Aurora bridge over and above the MAPO Lab. #Antarctica #SouthPole

All the major summer star parties have been cancelled, so we are hosting a Virtual Star Party *TONIGHT* with @WYStarGazing & @DeepAstronomy! You’ll see incredible objects with
Huge, robotic telescopes! Hubble's greatest hits!

I just received the sad news that my colleague, Margaret Burbidge, has passed away.
She turned 100 years old last August. Margaret played a foundational role in the physics and astronomy of the 20th Century.
Rest In Peace Margaret, among the stars you helped us understand. – at San Diego, CA
