✨🌌 🔭 | Stargazing Night | We have a stargazing night every so often and this one was a huge hit thanks to all of you who came out. Thank you!

🌲🌲🌲 Physics friends in the forest. Join our mentoring program and be a a part of the fun. Follow the link in our bio or email us to find out how you can join! #trees #tree #santacruz #ucsc #forest #stemoutdoors #sps

Science exists for all and the curiosity of our youth should be cultivated. The best way, we think, is to expose students to the wonders of real world physics applications. Jumping Rings, Holographic Pig and Gravitational Funnel. #science #physics #community #outreach #futurephysicists #wipa #wise #rocketteam

Science at #griffithobservatory A few #cuwip2020 attendees went to the stunning Griffith Observatory after the conference and these images are just some of the amazing displays seen. While at the observatory we talked about the moments that inspired us to get started in physics. For many it was the wonder of multimedia programs such as #cosmos and for others it was the education from teachers in their middle/high school years. We’ve all got something that led us to a career studying the way in which the world around us works. Telling our origin stories only encourages others to go out and inspire the next wave of great #scientists .

#cuwip2020 hosted a panel titled “Defining Success as A Woman in Physics” where one of #ucsc’s very own, Prof. Tesla Jeltema, came to speak on the topic. There’s no doubt that success can mean a multitude of things for each and every student of physics. It becomes increasingly difficult as a woman to find a fair measure of success in the field. Often times their male counterparts are not held to a similar standard by experts or faculty in physics. So the question of the talk becomes: How do we ensure we correctly measure our own successes.

Cool jazz music and lots of delicious snacks 🎵 🍪. It’s never a waste of time when we’re together, thank you for coming out everyone!

Boo!! Did this scare you? It scared us!

Some of the highlights from yesterday's #SUM+SPS #Catapult Competition Collaboration!
