Possible to glitch in the least likely edge cases /= impossible. Should have addressed the probability of weirdness. It's low.

Nobel prize in Chenistry awarded to David Baker at UW and 2 others for their work related to protein structure prediction.
About as close as I'll ever get, colloraborated ~20 yrs ago with his lab to get an article in Science that was awarded the Newland Clevand Prize (arti le of the year) bitd. Turns that the paper I'm an author on is the reason for the Nobel.
Let me be the first to say "congratulations for that, it's one helluva lot closer to a Nobel than this schmuck will ever get!"Quote:

Came here to post this: https://lumenategrowth.com/
I only heard of this today and haven't tried it yet (but plan to, later on), but the concept is pretty cool and apparently it works, from the little I've had a chance to read so far.

Perhaps more cool engineering than pure science, still amazing: SpaceX caught their 230ft tall Starship heavy booster on their 1st attempt!

Nobel Laureates get personal parking spots on the Berkeley campus. More valuable than gold medals.
Francis Crick had a personal parking space at The Salk Institute.

Standing up for science.
I hope some here were able to participate.
I saw good turn outs at some of the well publicized protests yesterday, including at my alma mater, ucsd. At the middle school that my mother subs at (semi-retired), there were focused lectures to the children about some of what was going on and the students and faculty made signs and marched around during lunch the edge of their campus, adjacent to a residential neighborhood and large community park. My wife, twins, and I took the afternoon off and completed our monthly volunteer gig a day early, collecting water samples and completing water quality analyses from a local creek.

It looks like an interstellar object is visiting our solar system
An Interstellar object, named A11pl3Z, is currently approaching Earth at over 152,000 mph. This object is traveling on a hyperbolic trajectory through the solar system, indicating it is not gravitationally bound to the Sun. It is only the third known interstellar object to be identified. Its closest approach will happen in October passing between the orbits of Mars and Earth, Its max velocity relative to earth will be over 200,000 mph. On its current trajectory there's no fear it will hit the Earth but might pass close enough to Mars to be observed by the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter.

Man, that is smoking. I think Omouamoua(?) was around 50k mph.

Can't believe NASA is trying to rebrand the sun when the Sydney Sweeny's pants issue remains unresolved:

Completely insane to think about our sun being on the smaller side compared to whats out there. I think there is a sun larger or as large as our galaxy.
Not even just the smaller side. A mere spec on some of the monsters out there. There are a couple of those progressive scale vids of the universe that are completely mind bending
Also, am curious if anyone else is getting Halloween 3 vibes of that pic of the sun? Watch the magic pumpkin!
