I wrote/interviewed folx shortly after everything started to crumble in Jan, but I was re-reminded that communities prevail. There are amazing people doing beautiful things to improve our communities, and I’m excited to highlight their work. berkeleysciencereview.com/article/2025...

🔭 #DarkEnergy may be even stranger than we thought. As one researcher put it to @space.com, “What a time to be alive and to be a cosmologist!” @desisurvey.bsky.social 🧪
Dark energy is even stranger than we thought, new 3D map of the universe suggests. 'What a time to be alive!' (video)

To know how animals behave in the wild, you have to observe them in the wild. It's a challenge to step outside the lab and do animal research in realistic habitats, but this is the hard science that's done at UCB's Field Station berkeleysciencereview.com/article/2024...
