With 189 CCD sensors, LSST Camera has a field of view *21 times* the size of ComCam’s. It will be installed in just a couple months—we’re less than a year from beginning our quest to #CaptureTheCosmos and generate the greatest cosmic movie ever made! 🔗: https://t.co/HPCmGkluFL

The life history of those who came before us is preserved in wills. If you are interested in #Genealogy, #FamilyHistory or #SocialHistory, you can help to recover the #memory of our #ancestors in archival cards.

@LeverhulmeTrust @UkNatArchives @exeterclio The project @materialwills needs help checking automatically generated transcriptions of the largest ever sample of early modern wills. With your help, we can explore how ownership of, and attitudes towards, objects changed in a period of profound economic transformation.

Every night, the T80S telescope captures vast areas of the Chilean sky in 12 bands. Volunteers will scan images from the S-PLUS DR4 survey to uncover rare astronomical systems.

We can’t do this on our own, so we’re asking for your help. The more traits that we document about these animal species, the more we’ll know about how to conserve them and their environments into the future. Join us so we can learn more together! https://t.co/5GDXTK70lU

We want to better understand how and why mammals respond to changes in their environment. One of the best ways to do this is to learn as much as possible about how their bodies and behaviors change over time. These traits can tell us all about how these animals adapt to change.

Help us mobilize ecological trait data about mammals! Mammals are as fascinating as they are diverse. Despite their diversity, all mammals have to find ways to survive under the pressures of human development and changes to the climate.
