Subtitles From Science Gossip, 1900

Yeah I have tumble friends *likes mutuals post* see we are communicating

Ruth Awad, from “Let me be a lamb in a world that wants my lion”

i think its fucked up that so many people have to constantly justify their existence, or even their right to exist. just a thought!

I was stuck in the space between terror and awe

“Noether” is such an absurdly perfect name for a scientist involved with relativity

I made this after dumping a bunch of info about leptons onto my friend today skfjdkkdjd

When Everything Everywhere All at Once said “The only thing I do know is that we have to be kind. Please, be kind, especially when we don’t know what’s going on" 

When the Good Place said “Why choose to be good every day when there is no guaranteed reward now or in the afterlife… I argue that we choose to be good because of our bonds with other people and our innate desire to treat them with dignity. Simply put, we are not in this alone.” 

When Jean-Paul Sartre said ”‘Hell is other people’ is only one side of the coin. The other side, which no one seems to mention, is also ‘Heaven is each other’. Hell is separateness, uncommunicability, self-centeredness, lust for power, for riches, for fame. Heaven on the other hand is very simple, and very hard: caring about your fellow beings.“

Accretion Disk Binary System - December 26th, 1995.

"Our Sun is unusual in that it is alone - most stars occur in multiple or binary systems. In a binary system, the higher mass star will evolve faster and will eventually become a compact object - either a white dwarf star, a neutron star, or black hole. When the lower mass star later evolves into an expansion phase, it may be so close to the compact star that its outer atmosphere actually falls onto it. Such is the case diagrammed above. Here gas from a blue giant star is shown being stripped away into an accretion disk around its compact binary companion. Gas in the accretion disk swirls around, heats up, and eventually falls onto the compact star. Extreme conditions frequently occur on the surface of the compact star as gas falls in, many times causing detectable X-rays, gamma-rays, or even cataclysmic novae explosions. Studying the extreme conditions in these systems tells us about the inner properties of ordinary matter around us."

i love pictures of the international space station which are just completely overexposed because that is just.. unequivocally an angel.
