Our Fascinating UniverseThis stunning image from the James Webb Space Telescope shows 50,000 sources of near-infrared light. The galaxies of Pandora’s Cluster act as a natural gravitational lens, magnifying distant galaxies from the early Universe. Some lensed sources, red in color and distorted, provide a glimpse into the past, stretching the very fabric of spacetime.

Space Catitude 🚀Wow, this sounds kind of exciting. Steps towards creating a Thorium Nuclear Clock and using it to measure the Fine Structure Constant carefully enough to see if it is changing (there has been some evidence that it might not be truly constant).

Nicole Sharp“Skimming the Waves”Common terns are gregarious sea birds that cruise low over the water to fish. When they spot prey, they will dip down to grab a fish from the surface, or they will fold their wings to plunge-dive to depths of half a meter. Compared to gannets and boobies, these are slower, shallower dives that involve less impact risk. Presumably the birds’ choice of dive height reflects the typical swim depth of their preferred fish.

MikeDunnAuthorToday in History, March 14, 1879, Albert Einstein was born. In addition to being one of the most significant physicists of all time, he was also a pacifist. Yet his letter to President Roosevelt warning of the Nazi progress on atomic weapons research was arguably key to the U.S. implementation of the Manhatton Project, a decision he later lamented. In 1955, well after the Cold War and nuclear arms race had begun, he and ten other intellectuals and scientists, including other Nobel Prize laureates, like Bertrand Russell and Linus Pauling, wrote a manifesto warning of the dangers of nuclear weapons. Einstein also participated in the U.S. Civil Rights movement, calling racism America’s “worst disease.” Later in his life he began to support socialism, and he criticized the Bolsheviks for their barbarism. Einstein was also a Zionist, and supported Jews’ right to return to Palestine. However, he did not support a Jewish state, or an Arab state, to replace Mandatory Palestine. Rather, he wanted a free, bi-national Palestine in which Jews and Arabs shared sovereignty, living peacefully and equally with each other.<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#workingclass</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LaborHistory</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/einstein" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#einstein</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/nazis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nazis</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/pacifism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pacifism</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/antisemitism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#antisemitism</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/zionism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#zionism</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/palestine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#palestine</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/israel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#israel</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/physics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#physics</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/atomicbomb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#atomicbomb</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/nuclear" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nuclear</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/socialism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#socialism</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/civilrights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#civilrights</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/racism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#racism</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/nobelprize" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nobelprize</a>
