Don’t miss the witty & engaging conversation about Pluto’s planethood between @AlanStern and @neiltyson on today’s episode of @StarTalkRadio. Dialogue like this is important so we can evolve toward a more nuanced way of discussing and understanding our universe. Here's a great…

What everyone says in moments like this is, "it was indescribable." We agree. Thank you to your wonderful partners (and the weather) for making this event happen. There were screams, laughter, tears, and for four minutes, everyone held their breath and felt the quiet you can only…

There is no way to describe witnessing this moment, so we agree. Magic is the best word we can think of -- astronomy really is magical! ✨☀️ @mishacollins got a great video of Totality from today, so give it a watch 👇

The way people screamed, cried, laughed -- the birds swooping down, moths and bats emerging ... It was truly an indescribable experience. A huge shout out to @Discovery, @ScienceChannel, @mishacollins, @Baylor and @cityofwaco for sharing your love and excitement for astronomy.

This man (he's really been such an angel) may know a thing or two about blinding bright light. Our eclipse in Waco just passed, but others on the Path of Totality, be sure to listen to our friend @mishacollins as he explains how to view the sun safely. ☀️🌕✨

We in Arizona haven’t forgotten about you, Pluto. You were discovered in our grand state on this day back in 1930. And tomorrow, you’ll be one step closer to being Arizona’s state planet! #PlutoDay #HB2477 @LowellObs
