First on LateNighter: Stephen Colbert told viewers exactly where they'd find him after 'The Late Show.' Turns out he wasn’t kidding.

🚀 Breakthrough on Mars! Mars Curiosity rover just discovered its most diverse collection of organic molecules yet. 7 of these 21 compounds have never been seen on the Red Planet before, proving Mars’ ancient chemistry was even more complex than we thought. #Mars #NASA #SpaceExploration 1/4

This is a composite image of a planetary system that's still growing. This is what the Solar System looked like when the planets were being born.

The FY 2027 NASA budget request hides its science cuts by omitting mission names instead of explicitly zeroing them out. We did the work and found 54 missions cancelled in this proposal. This is another extinction-level event for NASA science. Full list: planetary.org/save-nasa-science

Stick with me here, but what if we used baseball’s ABS system for presidents, so their bad decisions could be instantaneously overturned.

Yeah! Thank you for this. I suspected there might be some camera finagling like that going on, but it’s good to have confirmation. Great photo. But how they made it matters (to me).

The political gulf between zoomer men and women is worldwide thing unfortunately.

I like this idea. Watch when you want, do re-watches of your favorites, enjoy good weather instead of staying inside to watch a game, skip the inevitable late season collapse.

The US National Academies of Sciences refused to remove a climate change chapter from the Reference Manual on Scientific Evidence, despite pressure from Republican attorneys general.

Proud to say that I write for that infamous woke organization, SB Nation. Maybe we can rise to first place in next year’s rankings. 😂

Bill Belichick will, however, be making the AFC Pro Bowl roster as a quarterback.

JPL's press release calls this planet a "cold Earth" because it orbits right at the icy edge of its habiable zone. I didn't go with that framing because we literally only know this guy's radius and rough orbital period. And with the right (wrong?) atmosphere it could still actually be Venus-hot.

per my point about the mercator projection being the root of this whole thing

The rate of global mean sea level rise has increased from ~2.1 mm/year in 1993 to ~4.5 mm/year in 2023. www.nature.com/articles/s43...

🚨 December 2025 #Arctic sea ice extent was the *lowest* on record for the month... This was 1,620,000 km² below the 1981-2010 average. December ice extent is decreasing at about 3.5% per decade. Data: @nsidc.bsky.social at nsidc.org/data/seaice_...

👉 It's Week 12, let's look at some data... Pressure vs. Sacks: In an ironic twist of fate, the Falcons now have a pass rush... BUT, they rank 18th in EPA/pass & 17th in Success Rate. They are elite in man coverage (4th in EPA), but not so much in Zone (26th). ...

Global warming solved!

Now that the Sept and Oct data are (belatedly) in, it looks like 2025 will be the second warmest year in the record (~80% probability). The last three years are in a class of their own.

New York millionaires: threatening to flee the city since 2009

“A study, published on Wednesday in the New England Journal of Medicine, showed that last season’s 2024–2025 mRNA COVID vaccines reduced people’s risk of emergency department visits by 29%, their risk of hospitalizations by 39% & their risk of death by 64%” Benefits were seen even if 0 risk factors

A really amazing image. It was theoretically expected that many gaps in protoplanetary disks are associated with planets, but imaging the planets in action is elusive. Note that there is still gas flowing through the gap, and accreting onto the star; the planet-disk interaction that makes the

This is a pretty amazing bit of history. I was unaware of Carl Borgmann previously. Note Manabe's pioneering work on CO2 and global warming came out 2 years later than this, so Borgmann was ahead of the game in realizing the growing importance of CO2. We had so much warning,

Is sea level around the US accelerating? If you actually do the analysis, instead of just repeating talking points from decades ago, the answer is yes. tamino.wordpress.com/2025/08/03/s...

I always find survey results like this staggering (almost to the point of unbelievability). The US was spending around 1% of its federal budget on foreign aid. The average guess among 1,000+ surveyed Americans was 26%. 15% thought it was over half of the budget (?!) www.kff.org/global-healt...

🧵 On 14 July 2025, the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA (LVK) collaboration announced to have detected GW231123, a gravitational wave signal generated by the merger of the two most massive black holes ever observed. With masses of approximately 100 and 140 times that of the Sun, these cosmic giants 🔭 🧪 #cosmology

The frequency of the longest and most dangerous heatwaves is increasing as the planet warms

The National Climate Assessment may have been deleted but the planet keeps reminding us what it said

“We must pray for the conversion of many people, inside and outside of the Church, who still do not recognize the urgency of caring for our common home,” Pope Leo XIV said while celebrating a new formulary of the Mass “for the care of creation.”

NEW: Bishop Rojas of San Bernardino has dispensed his Diocese from the obligation to attend Sunday Mass due to ongoing ICE raids.
