Photography had a profound impact on astronomy, which is exemplified by the founding of the Astronomical Institute in Amsterdam. Read more about the practice of astrophotography in Amsterdam during the early twentieth century in my new blog post on the revamped #histSTM website Shells & Pebbles.
For the #SciArtSeptember theme “lyrical” I’m going with the use of imagination & analogy in the exploration & communication of science through thought-experiments like Lyell’s Amphibious Being! In geologist Charles Lyell (1797-1875)’s famous ‘Principles of Geology,’ he wrote that to avoid some sources of prejudice in understanding #geology would require an Amphibious Being, 🧵1/n

Legacy of racist US housing policies extends even to bird data
"....Ellis-Soto and his team studied bird sightings in more than 9,000 neighbourhoods, covering almost 200 US cities....
“You can better predict where you have data on birds based on systemic racism — redlining maps from 1933 — than climate, tree cover or population density, everything a bird should actually care about”

For #SciArtSeptember Day 7: indigo a little story of analogy & bias in the most famous physicist of all. My lino block print is inspired by the earliest colour wheel, made by Isaac Newton. When he first split white light in 1665 into the rainbow spectrum of colours, he named & described what he saw as red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet (often denoted ROY G BIV).

Happy birthday to mathematician & NASA scientist Katherine Johnson (née Coleman; 1918 – 2020). One of the first Black women employed as a NASA scientist (and its predecessor NACA), she was known for her mastery of complex manual calculations of orbital mechanics and played a pivotal role in the success of the US crewed spaceflights from the beginning.
