One morning, I caught @kripadotg on the way to work and she mentioned something cool that had happened in her physics lab. Turned out, her students saw sound waves. No biggie😅 I'll never tire of speaking to undergrads with sparks in their eyes. https://t.co/YfRwA276NA

Shreyansh Tripathy, Sourabh Panda and Kinshuk Ghosh, with Kripa Gowrishankar, managed to “see” sound after recreating an old experiment called Schlieren imaging.
