Before he was an astronaut, Neil Armstrong was a @nasa test pilot, testing research planes including the X-15. Milt Thompson called him "the most technically capable of the early X-15 pilots." On the last of his 7 X-15 flights in July 1962 he reached Mach 5.74.

I think the next issue of New Scientist essential guides is on Particle Physics, out on Dec 8th.

Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE)
IIRC they used to use dry ice to detect the Neutrinos but then moved to liquid argon (or other noble gas as a liquid) to try and detect. The neutrinos caused flashes, which I would assume is due to the interactions causing electrons to jump energy level. (not sure though)
I understand that.

An invoice catch-up day for recent book #indexing jobs on:
– early American literature in British print
– the British adult film industry
– orchestral conductors and
– information management from prehistory to present.
All great books to read and different challenges to #index. And that’s why I still love being an indexer. ❣️

The unprecedented experiment explores the possibility that space-time somehow emerges from quantum information, even as the work’s interpretation remains disputed.

@pluralistic Without making the image full it looks like a head that has been shot with an arrow.
@Billthoo Nice, great photo.
If you ever capture 4 going across at the same time, would make a good abbey road tribute picture :)

#ArtAdventCalendar
It’s already December on this side of the date line! Wishing everyone an ArtFul month!
Here’s one I took last year. In photography it’s all in the preparation, right? I’d set up my view camera, adjusted, metered, adjusted again, and waited for the decisive moment. And when I looked behind me I saw this… it’s my favourite phone photo 😁

Particle physics is great. Not an expert but you may find the book here useful

Aight lads!
Did you know that before releasing MS-DOS for IBM PC, Microsoft had its own UNIX flavour? True story! Xenix predates DOS by a whole year!

If you have a list of alternatives / replacements, we can help boost.
Lets boost what people should / could be using to help the cause.
I know @funkwhale is pretty good, not used it, just know one of the developers.

Can confirm that @b_j_griffiths gives a great talk on oscillations and memory. He's done some lovely work with combined EEG/fMRI, MEG, and intracranial recordings providing clear insight into the roles of theta, alpha/beta, and gamma during encoding and retrieval.

Please only respond if you identify as trans, thank you (boosts welcome)
"I am trans and..."
I wonder how many people realise artists are being exploited in the first place.

Why do people act shocked when you tell them you don't have Spotify? Like, am I supposed to apologize for not helping a shitty corporation take advantage of artists, and collect all my personal info?
