NIST has updated the National Marine Mammal Tissue Bank, a collection of 80,000 marine mammal specimens. Scientists use it to study marine mammal health, the ocean itself and human health. This is a collab between NIST and @NOAA at the Hollings Marine Lab in Charleston, SC. htt 2K views · 10 likes · 3 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

We call this making mountains out of molehills! This image shows one of the fingerprint ridge patterns that NIST researchers studied while working on contactless fingerprint collection calibration targets. Each of the ridges shown below is only about 300 to 400 micrometers wide. 2.6K views · 26 likes · 2 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

@NIST The moment the steel stops sticking looks like a magic trick, but it is really a visible threshold where heat disrupts the magnetic order inside the material. 8 views · 0 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

Did you know that a material can change its magnetic properties? In this video, our researcher shows how a magnetic steel sample sticks to a magnet (shown in yellow), but once it’s heated above a certain temperature, it loses that property. https://t.co/GNqZQbFUz4 4K views · 34 likes · 8 reposts · 11 replies Open on X →

Knowing an IV’s flow rate — the volume of fluid entering the patient each second or minute — is crucial to delivering the right amount of medication at the right time. A NIST intern spent the summer helping us better understand these important flows. 🔗 https://t.co/9IGKhGoNbV h 3.1K views · 23 likes · 1 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

@NIST A question for the American press: why do you believe that the execution of tasks set by the President—specifically, the presidential directive on maintaining U.S. leadership in new technologies and artificial intelligence—does not merit coverage in national news?
