Ya'll, I made a planetarium movie!!
It's about mapping the universe with DESI and includes a flight through the real positions of 14 million galaxies. For anyone without access to a planetarium, here's a flat version:

What was your earliest science memories?

For me it was with my uncle. We put food coloring in milk and then some soap. It felt like magic to me. We did that several times and he taught me why it does that. My uncle is the reason I am who I am today and he made me fall in love with science.

It's been a week since the @Falling_Walls@twitter.com #ScienceSummit2022 in Berlin. Such an eye-opening experience, sharing, and learning from other #ScienceEngagement projects from 17 countries around the 🌎 Such a breadth and diversity of initiatives, approaches, and perspectives!

Looking forward to present the #RomanianScienceFestival 🇷🇴 at the @Falling_Walls@twitter.com Science Summit in Berlin on Monday 🤩

#FallingWallsEngage shows the potential for social change coming from #scicomm activities targeted to undeserved audiences. Galaxies printed in 3d for visually impaired kids in England, mobile science labs in Egypt, video calls between young girls and female scientists in India, science used as a booster for social and economic development in Portugal, science-based activities for social inclusion in Scotland. Science meets the people!
