We will be out on the South Oval on OU campus tomorrow from 10:30am to 1:30pm to observe the solar eclipse! Come stop by to get a closer look at the event with our telescopes. We'll also have solar viewing glasses to watch the event safely.
Today is a day of remembrance honoring the lives lost, the first responders who courageously answered the call, and the families who were changed forever. May we #NeverForget Sept. 11, 2001, and continue to push forward together as a country for a better, more unified tomorrow.
Queen Elizabeth II's reign spanned all of spaceflight, predating both Sputnik and Explorer 1. As we join the planet in marking her passing, we are moved by the curiosity Her Royal Highness showed our explorers over the years.

Frank Drake (1930-2022) left an indelible mark on our planet. We will miss him deeply. Our deepest condolences to his family. Rest with the stars, Frank.
Talk about out of this world! This is Webb’s first direct image of a planet outside of our solar system, and it hints at Webb’s future possibilities for studying distant worlds: go.nasa.gov/3KGJ9OU Not what you expected? Let’s walk through the details👇
Working on the Canadian @csa_asc side of this EXCITING discovery was a trip! Just a preview of what @NASAWebb can do for exoplanet characterization and it’s already so mind blowing!! Congrats to the discovery team, including my @iExoplanets @UMontreal colleague Björn Benneke! 🎉

Today marks 53 years since the historic Moon landing of #Apollo11! We’ve got some out-of-this-world GIFs for you to use, created from historic films in our holdings 📽️🚀🌚 giphy.com/usnationalarch…
Oh wow! 🤩 Canada’s NIRISS on #Webb has found water in the atmosphere of exoplanet WASP-96 b! 💧 ☁️ Check it out 👇 Credit: CSA, NASA, ESA, STScI, Christine Daniloff/MIT, Julien de Wit, NASA/JPL-Caltech/R. Hurt, T. Pyle
It's here–the deepest, sharpest infrared view of the universe to date: Webb's First Deep Field. Previewed by @POTUS on July 11, it shows galaxies once invisible to us. The full set of @NASAWebb's first full-color images & data will be revealed July 12: nasa.gov/webbfirstimages
It's the longest day of the year! (Or the shortest, if you're below the Equator.) Join us for a quick #SummerSolstice2022 thread 🌞
June 19, 1865 is the day enslaved Blacks in Galveston Bay, TX learned from Union troops they were free 2 yrs after the Emancipation Proclamation & over a month after the Civil War. Today we #CelebrateFreedom & reflect on continued healing #Juneteenth
#OnThisDay in 1921, the deadliest racial massacre in U.S. history began in the thriving Greenwood African American community of Tulsa, Oklahoma. Black Wall Street in Tulsa, OK was destroyed by a racist mob. #APeoplesJourney #ANationsStory
Today, May 5, is Missing and Murdered Indigenous Persons Awareness Day. This day honors the lives of the victims, survivors and their families. It’s also a day to educate and help increase public awareness to the crisis of #MMIW and #MMIP. #MMIWG #MMIWG2S #NoMoreStolenSisters
When a star weighing more than 20 times the Sun runs out of fuel, it collapses and turns into a black hole. But not all black holes are created equal. For #BlackHoleWeek, check out the weird and wonderful black holes of our universe in this @tumblr blog: go.nasa.gov/3y9B94w
About 160,000 years ago, a star exploded. 🌟 It left behind these spectacular remains, imaged here in multiple wavelengths by Hubble and other observatories. Once @NASAWebb starts science operations, it will observe the remnants of Supernova 1987A, too: go.nasa.gov/3kjprMH
Alignment of the James Webb Space Telescope is now complete!👏 These new engineering images of sharply focused stars in the field of view of each instrument demonstrate that #Webb is fully aligned and in focus. Learn more here: blogs.nasa.gov/webb/2022/04/2… 📷 : NASA/STScI
NASA’s SOFIA telescope has provided observations in infrared light & made discoveries about the hidden universe. After a successful eight years of science NASA & its partner @DLR_en will conclude the mission, with operations ending no later than Sept. 30: go.nasa.gov/3LsXqOu

As the sheriff evicted an elderly couple and was removing a handicapped woman with Parkinson's disease from their home, her partner doused himself with gas and set himself on fire. "This," Aaron Bushnell so presciently said, "is what our ruling class has decided will be normal."

@JacquelynGill It’s important to remember that one of those telescopes is planned over the very vocal objection of the local indigenous community, although of course the project could be moved

Reminder, Gaza doesn’t have shelters or an iron dome and to please pray for them. May peace prevail in the region and move us towards a moral awakening to care about the human suffering we are seeing. Palestinians are human beings who have been in besieged and are deserving of…
Strategically, killing civilians in Gaza who aren’t Hamas won’t hurt Hamas, it’ll help them, in the long-run. Morally, killing civilians in Gaza as part of an ‘overwhelming’ show of force isn’t moral. It’s immoral.
Israel and Gaza are not two countries at war. Gaza is a territory under siege, where every aspect of life is controlled by Israel. Palestinians didn’t break through a “border” to enter Israel. They destroyed a fence separating them from the homes they were forced out of.
So many people are coming out of the woodwork expressing their concern for civilians and I have to ask, where was this concern, this need to post, when it was Palestinian children being assaulted by Jewish settlers? Palestinians being forced from their homes?

It's often said: White kids, upon being taught the history of racism, will feel guilty or bad about being White. In fact, White kids who receive antiracist history lessons exhibit fewer racist ideas about Black people while their attitudes about White people are unaffected.
Hey America — fuck you for letting the KKK desecrate our sacred mountain. #Happy4thofJuly 🇺🇸🖕🏾
"What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?" Beginning with the founding of America, African Americans have created new visions of freedom that have benefited all Americans. #ANationsStory #July4th
This is why the Indigenous community never ever reveals the locations of our sacred white animals.
You can't understand 1776 if you don't understand 1619. July 4, 1776 when the colonists declared independence, 1/5 of the population of the 13 colonies was enslaved. They would not gain freedom for a century. This, too, is the 4th of July. This, too, is the story of America.
It's looking like we'll have another cloudy night ahead, no star party this week. As a reminder, we won't have anymore until next semester.
