Did you know that a solar #eclipse confirmed Einstein's theory of general relativity three years after it was first proposed? A 1919 eclipse science expedition led by #NASmember Sir Arthur Eddington provided the evidence to validate the theory. Read more: ow.ly/rX6r50R5INy

Niels Bohr’s groundbreaking paper proposing a new atomic model, 'On the constitution of atoms and molecules' is dated 5 April 1913. It was published in July of the same year.

Bohr was awarded the #NobelPrize in Physics in 1922.

Happy weekend will some tulips not from Amsterdam but in #OurBathGarden

I missed this exceptional Royal Institution video on that day. Is it Dr Pira Lofol?
