My thoughts about this new potential discovery of dark matter:
Yinz know how there've been successful searches in physics for things that we expected to find based on theory?
Like, we expected from theory to find the top quark, and then years later we actually did find it.

I wouldn’t have written FIRST BLOOD if I hadn’t read a book about Hemingway by Penn State professor Philip Young. I was so impressed, I resolved to move from Canada to the United States and study w/Young. On this podcast I discuss that formative adventure.

Currently, the U.S. relies on imported gallium to make #microchips and LEDs, but a new analysis shows that our demand could be met with gallium recovered from industrial waste. #LBNLCriticalMinerals

"Ptolemy made a universe which lasted 1,400 years. Newton also made a universe, which has lasted 300 years. Einstein has made a universe and I can’t tell you how long that will last.”
