Have you noticed the Milky Way has huge dark patches where the stars seem to be missing? That's Stardust. Or, the "Interstellar Medium". That's the stuff that makes apple pie from scratch.
So when you're looking at the pretty stars, remember that the darkness is pretty too.

@hankgreen I wonder if they're trying to scrape education resources from around the world for some reason?

[TheMotographer @LiamMurphyAstro]

@JuleahKaliski They brought that into Australia a few years ago, a million Karen's and Dennis's screamed into the void for a while but ultimately the world ended for other reasons.

Pretty happy with how my capture and editing skills are getting better, still have so much to learn, especially with editing and being patient on location and not rushing/taking short cuts.

I FREAKING DID IT CHAPS AND CHAPPETTES!

@pmarca Whatever the second and third highest funded experiments/research fields in any institution.

Certainty gets funding for guaranteed boring results, I want to know the results of the research so radical nobody wanted to fund it, that's where the science is.

@We_Martians Legit heroes tho

@frogs4girls I heard a rumour that lesbians can find multiple solutions to Fourier transforms without a delta function?

[TheMotographer @LiamMurphyAstro]

Downplaying discrimination because you haven't experienced it is like saying someone else's headache isn't that bad.

There's a difference between fixing a problem and solving a problem.

@WKCosmo What if we invented fusion, then we could put a reactor in space and beam unlimited free energy down to the rooftops of every building?

[TheMotographer @LiamMurphyAstro]

@Lizteratures Building Lego sometimes helps. But I'm running out of places to put them

@frogs4girls Mine loves attention, bordering on needy really.

@mafflepaffle I forgot to set a timer and I accidentally spent the whole rest of the day being freak weird.

@physicsgangsta @Kaju_Nut Robert Ludlum's lost work 🤣

@Alan_Taylor_314 @Diraccone @angryfermion physicists apply the same rules to language as they do to mathematics. The maths of physics is "hard", which is approximately equal to "rigourous", therefore the maths of physics is rigourous.

[TheMotographer @LiamMurphyAstro]

@angryfermion "...of course it isn't a PERFECT harmonic oscillator, and anyway, Hooke's law is an approximation which is approximately zero about the origin and approximately linear for small enough regions of integration. So anyway, that's everything you need to know about the universe."

@KieranStoneAU PBS Spacetime is probably the best cosmology channel on youtube.

[TheMotographer @LiamMurphyAstro]

@KieranStoneAU Possibly, yes. It could also mean we're inside a black hole because the event horizon is in our finite past, and the singularity is in our infinite future, and the "expansion" of space is actually an illusion caused by our collapse.
