Who thinks all of these white women had been in church the Sunday before?!?!?!??

Toto, I've a feeling we're not in New York anymore.

I’d like to boost this project on Donor’s Choose. Mr. Snethen is trying to raise funds to buy some entomology (insect study) supplies for his Lakota students. $1400 is not a huge ask when starting a science project from scratch. I’m sure any amount would be appreciated - the project runs until the end of November. Please boost for reach and donate if you are able. Thanks.

Back in the year 1006 AD, light reached Earth from a stellar explosion in the constellation of the Lupus, that appeared brighter than Venus and lasted for over two years.

The #supernova SN 1006 occurred about 7000 light years away and has left a large remnant that continues to expand and fade today.

Pictured here is a small part of that expanding supernova remnant dominated by a thin and outwardly moving shock front.

'Much guidance on statistical training in STEM fields has been focused largely on the undergraduate cohort, with graduate education often being absent from the equation. Training in quantitative methods and reasoning is critical for graduate students in biomedical and science programs to foster reproducible and responsible research practices.'

Now that The Expanse is finished, I wanted to go behind the scenes and explain how they created the best space show of the last decade. Of course, I start with design and concept art!

Here's my interview with Lee Fitzgerald devoted to Season 2!

It's really just the beginning of what (I hope) will be a great resource dedicated to the making of #TheExpanse
Enjoy!

"South America has suffered one of the warmest January-to-July periods on record. Chile has been among the worst affected countries with fires at the beginning of the year and now extended droughts. Cordero said Santiago was sweltering in its ninth heatwave since January and was expected to break the annual record of 10 heatwaves, set in 2020."

"We evaluated the risk of death, cancer, and autoimmune disease among adult patients who had undergone thymectomy as compared with demographically matched controls who had undergone similar cardiothoracic surgery without thymectomy. T-cell production and plasma cytokine levels were also compared in a subgroup of patients."

'I love libraries because time and again, they have been my literal lifeline. As an abused child and as a financially insecure adult, library access to books has often kept me this side of suicidal levels of despair. The thought of anything threatening public libraries makes me ready to fight someone with my actual teeth.'
