keep amassing scientists the jenny harem will save the world

ozone at the surface only makes smog and acid rain we need that stuff way up there so i guess ozone chemtrails are on the table

the Chapman Cycles are cool because sometimes sunlight just splits o2 apart into atomic oxygen which really hates existing and normally would form back into o2, but if it bounces off another molecule just right it can instead bind to another o2 molecule, giving us back our ozone

it's still not quite good yet, but it's far better than it was for a long while. sunlight in the upper atmosphere will slowly turn some oxygen into ozone over time through what we call Chapman Cycles, so now all we can do is wait for those to work and not put any more CFCs out

i am a scientist and love when this happens so much please feel free to harass me with questions about the atmosphere

two years hrt :3 two years finally i enjoyed living in its entirety

ok you know what? [fourier transforms you into momentum space] there. much better.

finally have bangs and i cannot stop smiling single most gender affirming thing i've done since starting estrogen

This woman is a handpicked Trump supporter from Arkansas and she is less anti-trans than the median Atlantic columnist

we had maybe three people who approached out of genuine interest and left with useful information all night, but i watched my colleague play air guitar on the sensor for a while and that alone was amusing enough to have made the night worth it

in a war between Past Star who keeps signing me up for things and Present Star who would rather stay home and then ends up having fun anyways

me holding our air/soil sensor combo, a long pole-like device, looking as if i were a mage attempting to aura farm with their staff serious note if you are a farmer, are in land management, or otherwise could benefit from having one or more air/soil moisture/temperature sensors that give real-time data installed somewhere in the midwestern united states, for free(!!) please DM me and ill send you our link

today i got my storm spotter certification and did a STEM outreach event and im still gonna wonder why im tired on monday

I'm one of those trans women. I worked ground ops for Artemis I.

I am torn between celebrating the success of my friends and peers and grieving how my dream of working for NASA was shattered by hateful assholes in Tallahassee

i think a cool thing is that every time some right winger is revealed to have, let’s say, a non-normative sexuality, i get to hear what liberals really think about me but feel they can’t voice :)

Top image with Jerry saying, "You're crying because of Artemis II?" Bottom image with George saying, "The spirit of space travel got to me." Jerry then says, "Alright."

3/3 on personal programming projects lately im scared

i laughed so hard when they felt the need to confirm breaking bad and talladega nights were still made in this timeline

take two seconds

thinking about how artemis 2 waste dumps are on the same trajectory as them, so in approximately a week we're gonna piss into the atmosphere at like 10 km/s

all the while everyone else is looking at you weirdly for being slightly nervous that the sky is becoming weird colors and the sirens are harmonizing into what sounds like the angels beckoning me away from academia forever

i love grad school where else can you get positive feedback on zoom from your boss while the sky behind his 4th floor office window gets darker and the tornado sirens make it harder to hear what he's saying but you just gotta sit there and nod along until the tornado either kills you or misses

i am intently listening to a toilet being debugged 26,000 miles from earth i love the future

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARTEMIS

sitting at my desk at HOME and still trying not to explode out of sheer hype

I do NOT have beef w/ this article I just want to push back on this narrative. the "anti-trans tipping point" as I call it was 2021, the year Biden took office
