AMAZING! I am writing, with coauthors, a paper on the Enceladus plume and this sequence of images is being studied to address a possibly very exciting idea I've had Yet to prove that idea works but can't wait for it to be done. It's been in the works for 6 yrs! But it shld be worth the wait 🧪📰🔭🚀

Despite generally high trust levels overall, the gap is largest for climatologists. 5 interventions failed to increase trust, suggesting attitudes resistant to interventions 🧪
