Last night @CapricePhillips gave a moving introductory speech to the film “hidden figures”. It was shown at the @UnitedPalaceNYC theatre as part of their summer series. Caprice reflected on her journey through science and celebrated all things #blackinastro. Follow her for more!

Last night was a gorgeous sunset in #nyc . We are close to the summer solstice (six days out) so we are in the high part of #manhattanhenge effect season. At 8:08 last night the sun crossed the city grid about 2.5 degrees above the horizon. Lighting up the canyon brilliantly.

Today is the official start of #manhattanhenge season! Get your cameras ready as the day is looking gorgeous. The sun will set far enough north today that it just kisses the grid of the city before setting. It lights up the concrete jungle in perfect golden hour colors. @AMNH

In all, it's SUPER exciting to see such an unexpected result. And now we get to follow this thing up and search for more details about this phenomenon. It's an EXCELLENT comparative object for solar system objects, exoplanets and other brown dwarfs. So it wins on all fronts.
