I just recently found your newsletter and I’m thoroughly enjoying it and have shared it with colleagues.

Such an incredible show! I plan to see it a third time before it closes.

That’s absolutely amazing!! 😍

If asked i would say that the Rosetta images of the comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko are tied with those of Satrun by Cassini as the most dramatic and incredible of a solar system object ever returned via spacecraft. Just look at the mood here.

THIS. Did you know sickle cell is curable, now? FULLY curable.

If you're feeling down or despairing about what FEELS like technology/advancement/science "standing still" or being fully malicious, I have great news: You're not paying attention to actual science. Just tech industry marketing.

been waiting for someone to take this on and pleased it is Joel!

This photo taken on Dec. 16, 2024 shows the central detector of the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) in Jiangmen, south China's Guangdong Province. The world's largest transparent spherical detector began operation in China on Tuesday, making it the world's first operational ultra-large scientific facility dedicated to neutrino research with ultra-high precision.

The world's largest neutrino detector has just begun operations in Jiangmen, China. 🧪🔭

@hankgreen.bsky.social More fascinating facts about evolution! Might need a follow up to your last video.

Amazing technology from the 1930's in the Yates Hoist room. These giant pulleys, originally built for the Homestake Mine. The Sanford Lab repurposed them to transport scientists and engineers to build the DUNE Science experiment more than a mile underground via the headframe.(photo 3)

This is the most amazing thing I've ever seen re: city history/digital history resources. 58k photos of properties across Kansas City from a 1940 assessment program.

Remnants of another time

Looking great!

These buildings are great!

With #LPSC2025 about to start, it's time to share what I've been working on during the last months and will be presenting at the conference.
This is a new high resolution 3D model of the Mont Mercou outcrop in Gale crater, that I made during my recent internship at LPG Nantes. #planetsci 🧵

Looks like the evidence for this weird chemical abundance in an exoplanet atmosphere has gotten stronger with new JWST data: www.nytimes.com/2025/04/16/s...

Is it really a sign of life? That’s still not clear; lots of analysis left to do. But it’ll be interesting to see how it all pans out! 🧪 🔭

This is one of the coolest things I’ve ever read about and I’m really proud of @stlcitysc.com for being the first MLS & US pro sports team to offer this.

Innovating the accessibility game to the max. #AllForCITY

We cannot afford to be hopeless. Cynicism is not the right response right now. It feels like we are at the end of the story, but we are in the middle of the story and together we have to fight for a better end. -John Green

A sample of the first 3D #photogrammetry scan I’ve done as part of my coursework with CyArk and the heritage documentation grant I received.
The building is a reconstruction of Borromeo Church from 1791 in St. Charles, MO. Each little white triangle in the image is where I took the photo from.

The guidebook writer Rick Steves believes in the transformative power of travel. “I want to go home a little bit different, a little less afraid, a little more thankful, a little better citizen of the planet.” Read or listen to more on The Interview. nyti.ms/3ZApmZi

The area of Mars Percy landed on. Jezero crater is on the far right.

Jezero Crater zoomed in and showing the path of the rover up to the rim.

A more detailed view of the path.

A picture of the surface of Mars from the rover looking down into the crater.

Perseverance has reached the rim of Jezero Crater!

Sometimes I think, "Compared to geological time, living things exist for only little blinks," but other times I think, "actually, life is one continuous chemical chain that first formed billions of years ago and every mountain range that existed back then has long since crumbled away to dust."

YouTube video by Christophe I tracked down my WhatsApp crypto scammers

“Lead with empathy.”
An excellent video out about cryptocurrency scams, and the methods are alarming and lean into social engineering hard.
People are getting taken in subtle ways for lots of money. Absolutely worth a watch.
