11 February is the International Day of Women and Girls in Science‼️
This day aims to draw attention to the gender gap in #STEM subjects. It is a day that inspires, challenges & shows how #science can become more equitable. 👩🔬 #univienna
Earth Sciences students at #univienna have artificially produced an iron sulphate compound in the laboratory and examined its spectral signal. 🔬
The surprise that followed: this signal matches a spectral signal from #Mars that #NASA has not yet been able to assign to any known #mineral.

Bisherige Annahmen widerlegt: #Artenrückgang statt Artenzunahme bei Haien & Rochen 🦈
Überraschender Langzeit-Rückgang enthüllt dringende #Schutzprioritäten, etwa Erhalt und die Wiederherstellung vielfältiger Küstenlebensräume. Die Studie liefert wichtige Erkenntnisse für den modernen #Meeresschutz.‼️
DUNE uses observational data from the Euclid mission (analysed by @uniinnsbruck.bsky.social , who is also coordinator of the new SFB) and the James Webb Space Telescope (analysed by ISTA); comparing them with simulated ‘virtual universes’ (co-)developed at @univie.ac.at
The new SFB "Dark UNiverse Explorations“ with participation of Oliver Hahn @cosmohahn.bsky.social and Sylvia Ploeckinger @univie.ac.at aims at shedding light on the dark universe by (dark energy and dark matter) - see 👉 fgga.univie.ac.at/en/dune/
Their message for all interested young women and girls, the scientists of the future: Join the "Team Science"!
