#DYK water can boil and freeze at the same time? 😮 This phenomenon is called the “triple point.” The triple point is the temperature and pressure at which the three phases of a pure substance (solid, liquid and vapor) can coexist in equilibrium #Physics #FunFacts #NRCMetrology

#inatweet: screen puts out vertical polarized white light. Eyes insensitive to pol. Sunglasses block most horiz pol. Some tape is birefringent and rotates pol based on tape thickness and light colour. Different colours rotate differently thru various random tape thicknesses.

[quick note: the photon travels about twice as fast as this animation shows, same order of magnitude though so effectively close enough]

.@astro_luca & I are preparing for a series of 4 spacewalks to repair the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer, a particle physics experiment searching for antimatter to help us understand the origins of the universe. These will be very complex...it was never intended for repair in space!

My favorite payload on the #ISS is the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer @AMSISS @AMS_02 delivered by space shuttle Endeavour. The AMS might have detected antimatter already!

Over the last 20 years, the atmosphere above the Amazon rainforest has been drying out, leaving ecosystems vulnerable to fires and drought, and it's primarily the result of human activities. Here's how we know and why it matters: go.nasa.gov/36Csojd 🗺: @NASAEarth
