Studying an Eclipse from Deep Underground (with a picture of two princesses investigating plasma physics) · 8:45pm Aug 20th, 2017
New Particle Physics Gadgeteering post: Studying an Eclipse from Deep Underground, which might look like a contrived attempt to attach an eclipse tag to an underground science story, but this is a true report of what I was doing during the 2006 solar eclipse.
Already saw the post on your other blog, and it's fascinating! Hope they get some better results this time!
Meanwhile in the magical land of Equestria... I wonder, can you research plasma physics with Celestia's mane? It does look rather similar to the plasma in that picture...
I wish that I could smell magnetic fields. Maybe, you mean “magnetic noise”.

Thanks. Celestia's mane as plasma is an intriguing idea. It does raise a lot of interesting questions, such as what shampoo she uses.

Thanks. This is the result of writing blog posts when jet-lagged. (Apparently pigeons can smell magnetic fields).

Pigeons see magnetic fields. They have photoactive chemicals for sensing magnetic fields, but they only work under light.
