OTD in 1954, a Westinghouse color television went on sale in New York. It was the first publicly-available color TV using the NTSC standard. Only 30 were sold—perhaps due to its $1,295 cost (equivalent in purchasing power to $12,600 in 2021). https://t.co/XN1GQilk7m https://t.co/xeoIGI0aZl — PolitiTweet.org

OTD in 1533, Michel de Montaigne was born. In time, the French philosopher would popularize the written essay as a literary genre. And he would become a master of the epigram (example: "Nothing is so firmly believed as what we least know."). @Britannica: https://t.co/T4NtOKaKfQ https://t.co/0HJSKp3fvA — PolitiTweet.org

A benefit of eavesdropping on a medical spouse’s CME: being able to listen to a fascinating lecture on the development of a mRNA vaccine for #COVID19. Especially in context of previous vaccines, what’s been developed so far, so fast represents an incredible accomplishment. https://t.co/bhF8IRakR6 — PolitiTweet.org

Neural organoids are "three-dimensional clumps of cells, typically a few millimeters in diameter, that begin in the lab as stem cells that are then chemically coaxed into becoming neurons." They could give us unique insight into brain-related disorders. https://t.co/HPj4csHKRS — PolitiTweet.org
