🖖🏼🖖🏼🖖🏼 WE'RE ON THE MAIN STAGE WEDNESDAY AT 11:45! 😱😱😱
(Yes, in the Leonard Nimoy Theatre!)
((Right after the #StarTrekTOS guest stars and just before the #StarTrekDiscovery recurring stars!!))
Are you at #CreationEntertainment's #STLV? Help us get this Trek started! Join us for "Women of STEM & Sci-Fi: Meet the Astrophysicists" with me, Jessica Schonhut Stasik, and Olivia Greene of #TheNeuroverseInitiative!
🏳️🌈🧪⚛🔭America's 1st woman in space #SallyRide was inspirational to many (myself included), enduring blatant misogyny and breaking a glass ceiling, all while hiding a huge secret: her #LGBTQ+ status. Join the #AstronomicalSociety of the Pacific's livestream Mon, 30 JUN, 17:15 PDT for the #NatGeo docufilm SALLY + Q&A w/former @NASA astronaut #CadyColeman. #PrideMonth

🧵4/4 "Does #TaylorSwift Hold the Key to the Destiny of the #Universe?"

The Eras Tour: Mapping the Eras of Taylor Swift to the Cosmological Eras of the Universe
This paper explores an unexpected yet compelling parallel between the evolution of the universe, as described by cosmological eras, and the artistic evolution of Taylor Swift, delineated by her distinct album eras. By mapping key characteristics and transitions in the universe's history to corresponding themes and milestones in Swift's career, I offer a novel perspective on both. I culminate with predictions for Swift's future work and dare to ask a question of cosmic importance: Could Taylor Swift's thirteenth album hold the secret to the universe's ultimate destiny?
🧵2/4 "A Swift analysis of the #ErasTour set list & implications for #astrophysics research (Taylor's version)"
A Swift analysis of the Eras tour set list and implications for astrophysics research (Taylor's version)
Popular culture plays a significant role in shaping public interest in science, and Taylor Swift's discography frequently incorporates astrophysics terminology. This study examines the occurrence of astrophysics-related words in her lyrics and their representation in the Eras tour set list. By analyzing the frequency of words in Swift's total discography, we identify that astrophysics is promoted the most within her most recent album, The Tortured Poets Department, whereas songs from Midnights promoted astrophysics the most throughout the Eras tour. We catagorize words into various disciplines of astrophysics and find that multimessenger astronomy is promoted the most, both in Swift's total discography and throughout the Eras tour. We perform Taylor expansion and predict $12 \pm 5$ astrophysical terms in Swift's next album. This analysis offers a unique perspective on the intersection of music and science, revealing how Swift's artistry may unintentionally promote interest in different fields of astrophysics.
🧵1/4 Am late to the party but apparently #TaylorSwift is having a direct impact on #astronomy #astrophysics #cosmology. Hilarious & surprisingly interesting. There's a #PopCulture #SciComm talk here. Hmm, how to work it in to #STLV... 🤔😂
Thoughts #Swifties??? @amyimhoff1701
****This also likely explains that night's presentation by Danielle Martino and I entitled, "Doppler Shift, Buzzed" after which Kevin begrudgingly made us take out the most interesting parts because he said his dean wouldn't appreciate it the way he did.
*Ed Prather undoubtedly has the monopoly on this one.
**I write that fully acknowledging that Kevin -- and likely some of you reading this -- have long desired a "dealing with Rica" playbook.
***Ed's words, not mine, though I admit to co-opting them occasionally.
