I am happy to announce that the maintainer of this FB page, Greg Good (me), retired as Director of the Center for History of Physics at the American Institute of Physics at the beginning of 2022. I am trying to update the page to make it my personal, professional page, but FB is resisting my efforts. I want to change the name of the page to GeoCosmoHistory to reflect my focus as a historian on the history of the sciences of the Earth in the Cosmos and change affiliation details, but I have not figured that out yet. I am now focused on writing books in this area and I am a Visiting Scholar in the Department of History at West Virginia University in Morgantown WV.

Commentary: Is physics too specialized? Graduate students investigate the advantages of research that spans different fields.
