Antique Scientific Instruments: Exploring the Instruments of Discovery
Scientific progress is intricately linked to the tools that enable exploration and discovery. In this post, we delve into the world of antique scientific instruments, from astrolabes to microscopes. Each instrument represents a chapter in the history of scientific advancement, showcasing the ingenuity and curiosity of those who came before us. Join us in exploring the fascinating intersection of science and history, where antique instruments serve as tangible reminders of humanity's relentless quest for understanding the mysteries of the universe.
Perimeter Institute is thrilled to host the inaugural summer school for the Simons Collaboration on Celestial Holography from July 22 to 26.
The program will feature various lectures about this emerging subfield, along with insightful talks about future research directions.

Ideal for your summer vacation! In our two newest articles, Nikolai Kriukov from the UvA Faculty of Science, wrote about Kuratowski’s theorem. This is a very important and beautiful result from graph theory, giving a complete description of when a graph is planar!
Follow Maya on her trip to Rotterdam and how she discovers various ideas behind this theorem! Have a look at part 1 of the story.

Why can't I get out of this black hole I’m in? I keep getting better then I end up straight back in it.
It's not possible to escape a black hole. Black holes are extremely dense concentrations of matter, and their gravity is so strong that nothing can escape once inside. This includes light, which is the fastest thing in the universe.
The boundary of a black hole is called the event horizon. Once you cross the event horizon, you're doomed to move closer and closer to the singularity at the center of the black hole.
Black holes are mysterious cosmic objects that are not fully understood. Some say that black holes are actually the heroes that keep the universe safe from singularities. Learn more at: https://lnkd.in/d96_DSrx

Hiii, Connections !
||HISTORY OF GAIT||
Aristotle (384-322 BCE) can be attributed with the earliest recorded comments regarding the manner in which humans walk. It was not until the renaissance that further progress was made through the experiments and theorising of Giovanni Borelli (1608-1679). Although several scientists wrote about walking through the enlightenment period it was the brothers Willhelm (1804-1891) and Eduard (1806-1871) Weber, working in Leipzig who made the next major contribution based on very simple measurements. Both Jules Etienne Marey (1830-1904), working in France, and Eadweard Muybridge (1830-1904), working in America, made significant advances in measurement technology. These were developed further by Otto Fischer (1861-1917) in collaboration with Willhelm Braune (1831-1892). The major developments in the early twentieth century were in the development of force plates and the understanding of kinetics. The team headed by Verne Inman (1905-1980) and Howard Eberhart (1906-1993) made major advances in America shortly after the Second War. David Sutherland (1923-2006) and Jacquelin Perry pioneered clinical applications in America and Jurg Baumann (1926-2000) in Europe. It was not until the advent of modern computers that clinical gait analysis became widely available.

Wow! The volume of dark matter in the universe is almost directly proportional to the volume of dark "unstructured" data in the modern organisation (80%). An uncanny coincidence? Apparently, invisible universe dark matter is made up of WIMPs (watch the video for an explanation).
If you'd like to discover what your organisation's dark data comprises then infoboss can help you get understanding and value from this data.
Let's talk at #bigdataldn stand X221.
George Firican I know you love this kind of thing, perhaps WIMPs could be a new word in the data lexicon. 😂
Our researchers are at The Royal Society Summer Science exhibition this week, demonstrating their work to solve one of the greatest mysteries of science.
Our exhibit 'A Quantum View of the Invisible Universe' is about the search for dark matter, which makes up about 80% of the universe.
Here's Dr Dmitry Zmeev on the search for one type of potential dark matter particles called WIMPS. You can also find out more about the team's fascinating work, and how they're bringing it to life for visitors with hands-on exhibits at https://lnkd.in/e6dQDD-i
