Hello! I’m a professor of planetary science based at Harvard, interested in rocky planet evolution, #climate, habitability, and related topics.
Finally decided to get a social media account and Mastodon seemed like a logical choice right now. Looking forward to figuring out what this site (or sites??) is all about…
Given that Half-Life has now been around for 25 years, I mentioned to my kid he should try it out. He took the Black Mesa route instead of the original, which is fine. But, I watched him for a bit helping him find a crowbar, and now I am nauseous and need to sit down.
Can't do FPSs like I used to. Oof.
Been a while, but recently got a chance to fly some rockets with the club. Put up 11 flights. Silo flew again, on a D12-5 and it was perfect.
And, did the Astrocam two staged this time, C6-0 to C6-7.

It was 48 years ago tonight, at about this time, that the Edmund Fitzgerald sank in Lake Superior. This song always gets me.

This is a fun Q&A with the creator of "Pepper X," which is the new hottest pepper ever—by a lot. He tasted it raw once & was miserable for six hours https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/what-makes-pepper-x-so-hot/
That didn't feel too good, but I'm ok. Only took out a dead tree by the roots at >20mph... #MTB #BikeTooter
Trying to find people I relate to on Mastodon. Please boost if you:
-want to say y'all but do not because you are not a southerner and it would feel inauthentic.
-once saw a psychic who told you that you will die in a Jimmy Fallon-related incident.
-think that cops should give you a chance to get out of a speeding ticket if you can make them laugh.
-poke the ground in front of you with a stick before each step to make sure it is not quicksand.
