Houston, We Have A Book: A Review Of β€˜Star Bound’ A history of America’s space program, STAR BOUND is a vividly depicted, comprehensive telling that digs impressively deep β€” and is occasionally a whole lot of fun.

A miserable early moment in the United States space program was a response to the Soviet Union’s Sputnik. The US rocket carrying a satellite fell to the ground within moments of leaving the launchpad. The satellite rolled into a swamp, whereupon it was nicknamed Kaputnik. bit.ly/StarBoundRev...

Kelsey Johnson's new book INTO THE UNKNOWN winningly explores some of the biggest questions of cosmology. In ambition, scope, and tone, this book is exquisite. Here's my review for Forbes.com. www.forbes.com/sites/rebecc...

How is it that the richest person in the world is also the most ignorant?

Lake-Effect Storm Precipitation May Increase 14% During This Century Will a warmer climate reduce the intensity and frequency of lake-effect storms? A study of the effects of global warming on the forces creating those storms suggests not.

The snow is walloping the Great Lakes region. Over the course of this century, global warming may make matters worse. (My article from earlier this week.)(www.forbes.com/sites/rebecc...

Trump and what (white) women want White women are souring on Donald Trump. While 58% of them voted for him in 2016 (according to a New York Times exit poll), as of the Sept. 10 Quinnipiac poll more than half (51%) think he’s …

Last election cycle, for the NY Daily News I wrote this op-ed about Trump. I'm a science journalist. I often write about evolution. This year the stats are different, but I think my evolution argument still holds water β€” and is fun. www.nydailynews.com/2018/09/22/t...

For political content, I’m really enjoying Elizabeth Cronise McLaughlin (bsky.app/profile/ecmc...). On Threads she posted, β€œ[Meta algo] is specifically engineered to actively suppress progressive political content. Decide whether this is where you want to spend your time." Indeed. Thank you!

I draw pelicans. Too many pelicans, truth be told. I wrote an article once about interspecies intimacy if anyone wants to see it. (I write more than I draw.) Just offering it as an afterthought to this pelican picture. Enjoy! β€” and please feel free to share.
