DONALD TRUMP: "I'm requiring everyone in America to speak English." AMERICA: "You first."

NASA Goddard's entire Early Scientist Spotlight series is down, including some really cool interviews with underrepresented people who've since had to leave the field due to the lack of jobs! That's extremely cowardly and whoever is doing this should not know peace.

The Air Force will no longer teach its recruits about the Tuskegee Airmen, Black pioneer pilots honored for their service during World War II. Also halted, teaching the history of Women Airforce Service Pilots, or WASPs, the female World War II pilots who were essential in ferrying warplanes…

If you are a federal employee, it is advised to set your social media accounts to private to prevent outside viewership, as reports suggest that loyalty screenings have begun.

Stay strong. For us, this is more than just a job-it’s a calling. Together, we will stand to protect our parks, environment, and wildlife. Four years… we remain hopeful that the attack on our public lands will be less brutal this time.

Nothing special but getting outside to look at the regular birds is still nice

Oh this is a legit fascinating article!! Go read about magnetic field sensing and GPR being used to survey the enormous archaeological site at Ephesus in Turkey!!

JPL is one of NASA's major science and climate centers—home to the Mars rovers and 1000s of people. Firefighters held back the flames at JPL’s gates, but many of our coworkers lost their homes. Here’s a thread of their public GoFundMes if you can share & support however possible:

These extraordinary photos of the LA fires have been shared widely on social media, often without crediting the photographer. These are all the work of Ethan Swope, an LA-based photojournalist working for AP. You can follow his remarkable reporting here👇 www.instagram.com/ethanswopeph...

The insanity of being a fire ecologist in the epicenter of a major fire event, bags packed and ready to evacuate, watching active fire from my window, while taking media requests and explaining to the public, for the 100,000th time how climate change is largely responsible for this

This time tomorrow ‼️

Great to see that Bill Nye, CEO of The Planetary Society, received the Presidential Medal of Freedom. He is also guest editor of the current issue of The Skeptical Inquirer magazine. www.king5.com/article/news...

Still trying to understand how this app functions, feels more like a void than community but then again I am a shy quiet person. What am I missing to make me keep this besides the threat of Ads & AI from Meta?

Happy birthday to #mathematician & #astronomer Nicole-Reine Lepaute (1723-1788)! 🧪🐡🧮🔭👩🏼‍🔬 #histsci My #linocut celebrates her calculated path of the solar eclipse of 1764.

🚨The USFWS needs your help! 🚨When the father of the Copper Creek wolf pack was captured in Colorado in August, officials noticed he had a gunshot wound. The gunshot wound and his resulting poor condition are what led to his death in early September while in captivity, according to USFWS.

Two very photogenic eruptions of plasma from the eastern edge of the Sun this morning! Neither are Earth-directed. (Observations from the GOES/SUVI instrument). #spaceweather

New opinion piece from me on why we're failing on climate... too much compliance, not enough resistance. The AGU ought to be ashamed #AGU2024 bit.ly/3VzOTQO

The EU is “painting the wolf as a villain.” “It sends a very bad signal about the EU’s commitment to nature conservation because we ask other regions to protect their biodiversity...but we ourselves cannot accept to live together with the wolves,” said Sabien Leemans of WWF Europe.
