I did not do anything nearly this exciting today. #scicomm

Yum! I can smell it from here. " A new hot air oven, delivered to the Tiangong space station by the Shenzhou-21 spacecraft has provided astronauts with the first-ever food cooked in space. The first meal the astronauts ate was barbecued chicken wings, followed by a beef dish."

Cute old post; good to hear from See Arr Oh again! I used to have lucky fuchsia NMR caps... ok I may not have 100% believed in their power but I still used them when I really needed the compound to be correct/pure 😂

What a week is had been. #scicomm

Good stuff here. The gorilla may be my favorite. #scicomm gizmodo.com/the-funniest...

Some seriously needed good news. "UBC-developed enzymes successfully converted a kidney to universal type O for transplant, marking a major step toward faster, more compatible organ donations." #scicomm news.ubc.ca/2025/10/univ...

How about some feel good nature photos?

Here’s what people are saying about “Grad School Sucks!”, the new comedy-science-improv show at the Indy Fringe Festival. Rated 4.5/5 We’re scientist-comedians and we know that’s damn good data! “Brilliant idea!” “The improve folks were really good” “This was awesome! Great fun! Great performers.”

"A group of 287 scientists and current and former NASA employees has issued a declaration lambasting budget cuts, grant cancellations and a “culture of organizational silence” that they say could pose a risk to astronauts’ safety." You can add your name to the statement in support below. #scicomm

Most Sundays for the last 20 years at this time I'd be watching CBS Sunday Morning. But never again now that we know the CBS corporation is anti-American. @cbssundaymorning.bsky.social

Out now from Pencil Tip Publishing, "What the Fans Think: Space 1999." I was thrilled to write 4 chapters on this show I loved as a kid in the 70s. If you are so inclined, check it out now. www.penciltippublishing.com/articles/out...

Indianapolis friends, come see the newest Weird Science show “Grad School Sucks!” Friday August 15th, Saturday August 16th, and Sunday August 17th as part of the Indy Fringe Festival. indyfringe.org/performance/...

If you're a Weird Science follower, you know we've looked at people's preferences for lab grown meat in the past. But now it's cheese! "The process starts with yeast that has been genetically modified to produce casein, the key protein in milk, instead of alcohol."

Time to get funky. "Hundreds of scientists are set to take part in the first performance of a new Scottish country dance inspired by the ripples in spacetime whose existence was first theorised by Albert Einstein." www.gla.ac.uk/news/headlin...

Really cool news, but it's not definitive. The story is still developing as we get more data. "There’s a new object in the solar system headed toward the sun, and it may have come from interstellar space. We only know of two other interstellar objects that have entered into our solar system before,

Neat story mixing science and history. "The Geiger counter starts flashing and buzzing as I hold it against the 100-year-old Parisian doorknob. I am standing in the doorway between the historical lab and office of Marie Curie,

You possibly love dogs. I doubt you love diarrhea. But have you ever wondered which dog breeds are more likely to get diarrhea? Wonder no longer!

Damn good dog! "Archaeologists from the Arctic University Museum of Norway have revealed a 10th-century Viking boat grave on the Norwegian island of Senja. The buried individual is likely a woman... Most notably, the team found a dog carefully buried at her feet."

Amazing!

I love it! Today was a parade of the people.

I'm proud to have been part pf this protest today. #nokings

More of this please!

Founded in 1823, The Lancet is one of the oldest medical journals. This is the copy of this week's edition.

Fun? Maybe? "A growing number of young Chinese looking for low-maintenance companionship are turning their attention to jars of activated yeast that only need flour and water." www.odditycentral.com/news/pet-yea...

Happy Pride Month from Science!

Artists are paired with scientists who have been fired by the current Republican administration to tell their stories. silencedsciencestories.com

Wasn't expecting that.

As the current Republican administration continues their war on science, the NSF is one of their main targets. You can contribute to saving the incredible science that they do at this link: www.savensf.com

Huh maybe some fun fake science? www.ign.com/articles/the...
