Something happened in year 774 that was so powerful we can measure the radioactivity in old tree rings. Best guess is a solar flare, 10 times more powerful than the Carrington Event in 1859 that zapped telegraph wires. Worth considering the effect of the next one. Details:…
The return-on-investment for the SDSS surveys is truly extraordinary. It is mid-scale, it is efficient, it is open, it is reasonable, it is diverse, it is inclusive. All of the data is returned to all of humanity for the benefit all of humanity.
This goes on my list... really enjoyed "Some Assembly Required"
"Paleontologist Neil Shubin’s Ends of the Earth offers readers a comprehensive overview of the geology, oceanography, glaciology, geopolitics, and climatology of the planet’s polar regions: Antarctica and the Arctic." Read the #ScienceBooks Review: scim.ag/4hQTJC8
I spend a lot of time looking down, but it pays to look up sometimes! These carbon dioxide ice clouds appear seasonally and offer clues about the Red Planet’s atmosphere and climate. go.nasa.gov/3EvY2nT

The public has a distorted view of science, because children are taught in school that science is a collection of firmly established truths. In fact, science is not a collection of truths. It is a continuing exploration of mysteries. - Freeman Dyson
Government-censored science ruined the USSR. Is the USA next? Back in 1928, the Darwin-and-Mendel rejecting scientist, Trofim Lysenko, was put in charge of Soviet agriculture. This is why you don't want a government that embraces anti-science policies! bigthink.com/starts-with-a-…

Something that makes me really sad is seeing the teachers who write the testimonials on AI edtech products having to get second jobs as stock photography models. Teachers like "Michelle (8th Grade Teacher)" deserve a living wage!

Happy birthday to Wikipedia, which launched #otd in 2001. Their homepage has changed a bit in the past 24 years.
As one researcher said: "This is starting to look like the perfect system to democratize high-end fluorescent microscopy and bring it to classrooms." For @newscientist, I wrote about a device that could bring biochemical science to so many new places newscientist.com/article/246261…

"Despite political divergence, there is strong scientific consensus that effectively tackling plastic pollution requires coordinated interventions across the entire plastics life cycle," write Stephen Fletcher and Tegan Evans in a new #ScienceEditorial. scim.ag/3PwQ4NG
A cool new atom has entered the quantum realm - and researchers expect to be surprised by whatever new forms of matter it ends up making. I was excited to write about an experiment that may produce truly new, unpredictable discoveries for @newscientist newscientist.com/article/246250…
