Research fields Memes

The three-headed dragon meme perfectly captures the spectrum of physics research intensity! Two fierce heads represent the hardcore physicists studying the universe's deepest mysteries - astrophysics and particle physics - looking all serious and intimidating. Meanwhile, the third head is just vibing with crystals, complete with a derpy face and random capitalization. It's the scientific equivalent of having two siblings with PhDs while you're just collecting shiny rocks from Etsy! Condensed matter physicists everywhere are feeling so called out right now. The irony? Condensed matter physics actually impacts our daily lives WAY more than the other fields - smartphones, computers, and superconductors all come from crystal studies!
