JUST IN: Falcon Heavy is vertical at pad 39A. Sunday 7:26am ET: NASA’s Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope. • Rolled out to 39A this morning • Dark energy, exoplanets, astrophysics • 4K pad video from SpaceX

Falcon Heavy is vertical at pad 39A in Florida ahead of Sunday’s launch of @NASA’s Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, designed to study dark energy, exoplanets, and astrophysics →

Including today’s liftoff, our Falcon fleet of rockets have launched 13 missions for @NASA’s Launch Services Program since 2016, spanning everything from Earth climate monitoring to astrophysics and planetary defense

SpaceX has rolled out the Falcon Heavy rocket horizontally on its transporter to Launch Complex 39A at Kennedy Space Center ahead of NASA’s Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope mission. Roman is an advanced infrared observatory designed to map billions of galaxies, study dark energy by measuring the universe’s expansion, and search for exoplanets with its wide-field imaging capabilities. This mission will mark another major NASA science payload for Falcon Heavy, further demonstrating the rocket’s role in launching ambitious deep-space astrophysics missions.

Nvidia $NVDA CEO Jensen Huang says Nvidia’s new AI PC can run “everything the world has ever created” “This is the N1X that we built in partnership with MediaTek.” “100% of Nvidia’s software stack runs here.” “If you want to run digital biology, no problem. Seismic processing, no problem. Astrophysics, no problem.” “Every single application Nvidia has ever created and every single application that Windows has ever run.” “This computer literally runs everything the world has ever created, plus it now runs agents.” “An incredible computer. I’m so proud of it.”

Stockholm, 1930. The Nobel ceremony begins. One name is missing. Meghnad Saha nominated again. Ignored again. His equation explained how stars work—how light reveals temperature, pressure, composition. Every telescope, every observatory, every astrophysics textbook relies on it. His math made it possible. He came from nothing, a poor village in Bengal. He taught himself physics while others doubted him. He was nominated for the Nobel Prize five times. Five times, the committee said no. The scientist who used his equation won prizes. The man who gave them the tools received silence. He died in 1956, still waiting. The stars he decoded shine every night. His name almost forgotten. Remember Meghnad Saha.

Quantum Matter Can Collapse Into Stellar-Like Structures. Take the same underlying system as the previous phase-helicoid scene we just posted, but now we stop looking at phase geometry and focus directly on how the density evolves under self-gravity. We note that self-attracting quantum waves do not always spread out. Under Schrödinger-Poisson dynamics, the density begins to cluster into bright gravitational condensations, forming turbulent filaments, rotating cores, and star-like structures driven entirely by the wavefunction’s own gravity. Result looks less like particles moving through space and more like Spacetime teaching a quantum fluid how to organize itself. #QuantumPhysics# #WaveFunction# #SchrodingerEquation# #Astrophysics# #ComputationalPhysics# #Mathematics# #Physics#
