RE: Going down into the Large Hadron Collider with steemSTEM
Thank you for sharing the experience of LHC tour, I missed my chance of visiting it (or even doing an internship) during my university years, but I will see it one day, went far away from particle physics. :)
It is so nice to see some internet community gathering together and strengthening the relationship and paving its future!
Cheers, Velibor! :)
Oh I am only happy to be able to share it in the first place^^
Are you studying astrophysics? How far are you into the degree?
And yes, the community is everything. Other blockchains may try to copy paste some code and create a new and perhaps technically better social media, but you can't quickly replicate a community.
I finished my master's degree last September. Now waiting for application results for two PhD projects in Australia.
Happened to find steemit and steemSTEM in the meantime, but will continue to produce scientific posts wherever I go! :D
That's really cool!
Astrophysics is probably where I would have ended up if I had caught my passion for space a few years earlier than I did. Some of my best friends though went on to take their PhDs in it and now do really cool work with different space agencies. It's an awesome job!
Thanks :)
I chose it even tho it is not really popular field in Serbia - hell, actually I have been a lonely student (the only one in the generation :) ) but managed to finish as the best in my class :P
So yeah this projects involve collaboration with ESO and VLT observations - and most likely some Keck time too. :)
Feeling in a limbo while waiting for response tho.
BTW, working in ESA headquarters is not a bad deal either :)
CONGRATS!
If you ever feel in need of a visitor.... :P :)
cheers!
We may organize a second event, one day. Just keep tuned :)
