Thread 🧵 of important science news as it relates to Donald Trump
Below is a 🧵 of recent (since mid-late July) science news as it relates to what Trump is doing to federal science and related topics. This is meant to keep track of his dismantling and also so I myself don’t miss anything. Also my apologies for any repetitiveness.

The Allende meteorite is a 4.5-billion-year-old time capsule. How do we read this ancient history? Join Museum Curator Denton Ebel as he reveals the key: chemical thermodynamics. It’s the same science that explains why it takes longer to boil pasta on a mountaintop than at sea level. Watch.👇

Heavy lake effect snow and gusty winds, with local blizzard conditions, will continue into Thanksgiving Day across the Great Lakes. Another winter storm looks to develop over the northern and central Rockies Friday and track across the central Plains through the Midwest and Great Lakes this weekend.

The Trumpetfish is such a ridiculous looking creature, they always make me smile. They are masters of color change as well, shading from brown, reddish, orange, and bright yellow. They often drift head-down like this, especially when hanging out in clumps of soft coral. 🦑 #scuba #diving #oceans

In what's been an extremely steady month temperature-wise, today will end up the most anomalous day. 4 shy of the record for the date. Overall November will finish a bit cooler than average, though.

The first snows of the season are beautiful, but beware the Unique Hazards of Early Season Cold and Snow!
The main risks are: falling tree limbs from leaf-loaded trees, icy roads catching drivers off guard, and unstable outdoor recreational areas. Slow down and be prepared! weather.gov/safety
