Happy to discuss more if you’d like. Essentially we have a database of geochem measurements from that site going back about 10-15 years. As a science education class/outreach program, the purpose was primarily educational and not research. Feel free to email at Michael.d.kubo@nasa.gov if to discuss.

We ran the NASA/Lassen Astrobiology internship program. It’s a science education class offered through red bluff high school. At That site (we dubbed it the alkaline site) we focused on the Cyanobacteria, but it’s super cool that you isolated those amoeba from that stream!

This looks like a high temp spring on the uphill side of drakesbad guest ranch. Can you confirm? We have done a lot of work there, but never looking for enrichment of euks. Looking forward to reading your paper!

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source.

Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

Thank you for speaking up about this. Please call it what it is — a coup. Tell the American people what we can do to stop this hostile takeover of our democratic institutions.

I feel like we are in that opening scene of Red Dawn where the Soviet Army parachutes into middle America. The media & congress are that principal of the high school that walks onto the field of paratroopers & says “what’s going on here my friend?!” The rest of us are already shouting “Wolverines!”

It’s official: Elon Musk’s staffers have now illegally obtained classified information from the USAID office.

Here’s a recap of what’s happening:

It’s terrifying and demoralizing. We need to press congress ti intervene.

The Young, Inexperienced Engineers Aiding Elon Musk’s Government Takeover Engineers between 19 and 24, most linked to Musk’s companies, are playing a key role as he seizes control of federal infrastructure.

This is a hostile takeover of the machinery of the government by non-governmental employees. In other words, this is a coup.

This is a coup. Why is the media (with a few exceptions) not calling it what it is?!

Gorgeous! Where is this?

Not that you need validation, but 100% this.

It’s just like twitter, but not owned by a fascist megalomaniac, so better.

Hey Sarah! Thank you for connecting on Bluesky. FB is turning into a real cesspool. I’m hoping to shift my social engagement to this platform. It will take some effort and habit forming.

Hey Lydia! Glad you are on Bluesky! I’ll follow you back.

Hey friends! Thanks for following me on Bluesky! I’m looking forward to moving over to this platform.

Elon Musk Ignites Online Speculation Over the Meaning of a Hand Gesture Speaking at a celebratory rally in Washington, Mr. Musk twice extended his arm out with his palm facing down, drawing comparisons to the Nazi salute.

In this moment when antisemitism has reached a new high, this is outrageous behavior. At a Presidential rally no less.

Donald Trump should condemn it. And Elon Musk owes our country an apology.

I’m so excited to hear that you are a lover of the green bean casserole! FTW!
