Over 200 years ago, scientists were looking at sunlight through a prism when they noticed that part of the rainbow was missing. There were dark lines where there should have been colors. Since then, scientists have unlocked the secrets encoded in these lines, using it to uncover mind-boggling facts about the fundamental nature of our universe and about worlds light-years away.

It is the result of the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter. Though it’s often used to calcuate a circle’s area or a sphere’s volume, pi is also used in geometry and physics. The Exploratorium Museum of Science, Art, and Human Perception, located in San Francisco, first celebrated National Pi Day back in 1988; it was later formally recognized by Congress in 2009.

The Chicano Movement united Chicanos, Americans of Mexican heritage who chose that label, in a new shared identity to fight for social and political empowerment. One of the creatives that made their mark in support of this movement was Yolanda Margarita López, a feminist painter, printmaker, educator, and film producer. She was best known for her works focusing on the experiences of Mexican-American and Chicana women, often challenging the harmful ethnic stereotypes associated with them. López is most kn...

图布读书#26 另一个奥本海默今天这本书是以一个奥本海默为主人公的传记作品，但并不是那个最为人熟知的奥本海默，而是他的弟弟，Frank Oppenheimer。
他也是一位物理学家，同时也曾经是曼哈顿计划的参与者之一、被辞退的大学教授、牧场主、高中教师，以及科学馆或者博物馆的创办人。他和他所创建的Exploratorium (探索博物馆)是本书的主题，在这里参观者探索、发现和理解物理世界的规律，奥本海默认为，这样的理解可以避免广岛核爆这样的灾难再次发生。
本书的作者K.C. Cole，通过采访Exploratorium结识了奥本海默，并在他人生的最后十几年与他有亦师亦友的情谊，并在此影响下，学习物理并创作了多部科学类非虚构作品。她也曾是南加州大学新闻传播学院的教授。
书名something incredibly wonderful happens: Frank Oppenheimer and the World He Made Up，出版于2009年。

如果你想更多了解关于原子弹的历史，The Making of the Atomic Bomb 也许是最好的一本书，作者Richard Rhodes，初版于1987年，获得过普利策非虚构作品奖。
关于Robert Oppenheimer的生平，还可以阅读诺兰这部电影所参考的传记 American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer，同样也是普利策奖的获奖作品。
另外也还可以看一部80年代的纪录片The Day After Trinity，本书的主人公以及书中多次提到的Bob Wilson、Hans Bethe都在片中接受了采访。

07:27 Robert Oppenheimer（两人中的哥哥）1922年进入哈佛大学，3年后获得化学专业的学士学位，之后去到剑桥大学，1926年又转到哥廷根大学在Max Born的指导下从事理论物理研究，次年获得博士学位，当时他23岁，此时弟弟Frank还在纽约读高中。
08:48 1935年Robert是在UC Berkeley任教职，同时也在加州理工大学教课。
12:07 1949年两个奥本海默都曾接受众议院非美活动调查委员会的质询，当时哥哥Robert承认他的几个学生在伯克利学习期间曾经是共产党。对Robert本人有深刻影响的是在4年之后，1953～1954年国会两院原子能委员会发起的调查和安全听证会。

Each show we use the seminal and increasingly prescient 1976 film All The President's Men as a portal, to engage with the themes and the warnings of the film resonating since its release. For minute 76, I join writer, filmmaker associate producer and Alan J. Pakula's assistant on All The President's Men, Jon Boorstin. Jon and I discuss everything about his experience working on *President's* , the counterintuitive editing practices and sitting up close and personal with the under-rated master Alan J. Pakula.

Museum Archipelago79. The Future of Hands-On Museum Exhibits with Paul OrselliThe modern museum invites you to touch. Or it would, if it wasn’t closed due to the Covid-19 outbreak. The screens inside the Fossil Hall at the National Museum of Natural History in Washington, DC say “touch to begin” to an empty room. The normally cacophonous hands-on exhibits at the Exploratorium in San Francisco sit eerily silent.
Museum exhibit developer Paul Orselli of Paul Orselli Workshop says he’ll be reluctant to use hands-on exhibits once museums open up again. But he hopes that future hands-on exhibits are more meaningful because museums will work harder to justify...

The Inner Frontier with Jonny MillerAstronomy as a Lens to Understand Yourself with Kevin HainlineThis was one of those spontaneous conversations that made me feel grateful for having started a podcast... it was with NASA astronomer Kevin Hainline, recorded sitting next to a stream up in the Spanish pyrenees. We went completely off the deep end and I don't think it's an exaggeration to say that he changed the way I look up at the night sky and sent me into a rabbit hole of researching how different cultures around the world tell stories about the constellations they see. 🦖When Kevin was young he had to choose between dedicating his...

Homeschooling IRLWhen My Convictions Aren’t Your Convictions – HIRL Episode 94
Homeschooling. Health food. Small church. Mom stays home. KJV only. Dresses. Youth group. Public school. No TV. Our convictions, or the things we strongly about, can drive so much of our lives and end up being the choices by which we define ourselves. They can bring like-minded believers together and set the tone for our families and homes.
But what happens when your convictions are different than mine? As soon as you discover that we don’t have the same non-negotiables in our home as you do in yours, is it a deal-killer?

Declan – a proud Derryman – feels politicians are ‘afraid of culture’ and despairs that the development of Ebrington has been ‘kicked down the road till 2033’.
