Showtime! 📺
On April 20, our #LucyMission will fly by the small main belt asteroid Donaldjohanson. Johanson is the paleoanthropologist who discovered the ""Lucy"" fossil for which the spacecraft is named.

Use of Sun and Stick for direction. ✍️
1. Place a stick upright in the ground.
2. Mark the tip of the shadow cast by the Sun.
3. Wait 15-30 minutes, then mark the new shadow tip.
4. Draw a line between the two points — this line runs East-West.
5. The first mark is West; the second mark is East.

The 2024 #NobelPrize laureates in chemistry Demis Hassabis and John Jumper have successfully utilised artificial intelligence to predict the structure of almost all known proteins.
In 2020, Hassabis and Jumper presented an AI model called AlphaFold2. With its help, they have been able to predict the structure of virtually all the 200 million proteins that researchers have identified. Since their breakthrough, AlphaFold2 has been used by more than two million people from 190 countries. Among a myriad of scientific applications, researchers can now better understand antibiotic resistance and create images of enzymes that can decompose plastic.

2024 physics laureate Geoffrey Hinton used a network developed by his co-laureate John Hopfield as the foundation for a new network: the Boltzmann machine. This can learn to recognise characteristic elements in a given type of data.
The Boltzmann machine can be used to classify images or create new examples of the type of pattern on which it was trained. Hinton has built upon this work, helping initiate the current explosive development of machine learning.
