Happy Book Day!! I was fortunate to get an advanced copy of this fresh and fantastic read. Full review coming later but #EdgeOfSpaceTime is really something ground-breaking and new. Many texts tackle cosmology, none of them connect to the current moment quite like this one.

Also Nicole is one of the editors who worked on #EdgeOfSpaceTime and you should hire her to work on your book.

What’s the #EdgeOfSpaceTime you ask?
👀
Honestly can’t wait for people to see the chapter titles. I feel like I really nailed the TOC lol

I spend quite a bit of time on this in #EdgeOfSpaceTime
Even though we know a lot, we actually are unsure about how to explain the nature of reality, which is a marvelous problem to have. ⚛️

The level of excitement for #EdgeOfSpaceTime is proof to me that people are interested in fundamental questions about what the universe is made of and how it works.
YAY!
🥰
I hope that readers of #EdgeOfSpaceTime will walk away knowing that we need cosmology, just like we need poetry
Because cosmic science and poetry are part of how we create ourselves

Honestly, the highest compliment -- from @nicolechung.bsky.social who worked on the book as an editor! Nicole is not a scientist or even really a science writing specialist, but somehow is always a brilliant science writing editor!! #scicomm #EdgeOfSpaceTime

What's the book about? 🧵
Ufff a big loss. I write about her work in #EdgeOfSpaceTime.
She was a giant of the field!
As I wrap up work on #EdgeOfSpaceTime, one of the parts I feel most excited to share is my discussion of @wilsoncruz.bsky.social as Hugh Culber and his transdimensional gay love story with Anthony Rapp’s Paul Stamets ♥️ 🏳️🌈 #BookSky
I’ve been wondering where I should make the playlist for #EdgeOfSpaceTime. I no longer am on someone’s Spotify family plan and wouldn’t encourage people to use Spotify now.
I guess I can just publish the list of songs 😕 #BookSky
Two blue notebooks and a beige one laid out in fan formation on top of a silver laptop
Writing #EdgeOfSpaceTime began with pen and paper. For a year, I read and took notes about Robert Frost, Natasha Trethewey, things we think we understand but don't, Descartes, space, time, metaphors, orientation, materialism, quantum mechanics, electrodynamics, quantum field theory, and relativity
It's probably ok to tease that the Langston Hughes theme continues with #EdgeOfSpaceTime 🥰
I'm putting the final touches on my second book #EdgeOfSpaceTime and the entire book is an argument for #cosmology and #particlephysics through #poetry. Part of what we can do in #scicomm is make those connections for people. Those connections are powerful & motivating for people, esp in hard times.
😍
Nice post to see as I am trying to wrap up #EdgeOfSpaceTime!!
not me referencing SLICK RICK in the quantum field theory chapter of #EdgeOfSpaceTime
#EdgeOfSpaceTime has a publication date and cover 🥰
