Co-host @melissatruth recently shared her favorite fun science facts about @TheFastSaga movies at #EmeraldCityComicCon. Can @TheRock push a torpedo on ice? Probably! Can Dom drive down a dam? Absolutely not! How many people has the family killed? A lot! https://t.co/rsRT9jgKvJ

Nerd Nite returns to San Diego January 25! We're putting together a fun night of talks, games, and drinking in a room full of people who love weird science. Join us! https://t.co/UjHCQS5Nty

[Melissa Truth Miller @melissatruth]

The finale of my science of @TheFastSaga podcast is up! We answer important Fast X questions like: is driving on a dam possible? Can a bad guy cushion your fall? There's much left to speculation though like: is Han bisexual? How much therapy did Jakob get? https://t.co/VZkELNzHuo

[Melissa Truth Miller @melissatruth]

Remember when @TheFastSaga went to space?! Astrophysicist @dustchick and #NASA systems engineer @tweetsoutloud answer all my silly questions about whether a Pontiac Fiero could really go into orbit. Delightful movie and a delightful nerdy chat. Enjoy! https://t.co/Yu1aBnBlEl

[StarWarsologies @StarWarsologies]

Cool job alert! Did you know scientists consult on pop culture projects including the MCU, How To Train Your Dragon, and How To Get Away With Murder? Our latest episode is our @comicconla panel of experts sharing stories about their work

[Melissa Truth Miller @melissatruth]

I chat about the physics nonsense in Fate of the Furious with physicist @dustchick and hacking nonsense with @beagandica. We all love the franchise and had a lot of fun watching the movie and then overthinking it! Give it a listen https://t.co/HnG5oWdzxv

[Melissa Truth Miller @melissatruth]

Tickets are still available to @comicconla this weekend. Come geek out with us!

[Melissa Truth Miller @melissatruth]

I'm hosting two panels at @comicconla next weekend! "The Science of Ahsoka" and "Science Advisors in Science Fiction" are both going to be fun discussions about the real science in your favorite science fiction. Come geek out with us!

[Melissa Truth Miller @melissatruth]

You know I love to talk about @starwars animals! Loved this conversation with @StuartSumida and @jamesjawa.

[Melissa Truth Miller @melissatruth]

Listen to The Facts & The Furious episode 7 for details on the physics nonsense (courtesy of @dustchick) and how it helps us process the grief of Paul Walker's death (insights from @ArkhamAsylumDoc), then re-watch Furious 7 because it is a masterpiece https://t.co/cwRDe9BwOW

[Melissa Truth Miller @melissatruth]

It's time to rewatch Fast & Furious 6, learn about just how unlikely Dom's leap to save Letty is, and hear from a locations scout who worked on the film. Enjoy this episode of The Facts & The Furious aka Fast & Curious 6!
