#PublicationAlert! A recent paper describes seven new species of Lepidonotopodini #scaleworms from deep-sea chemosynthetic ecosystems, including some samples collected by #EVNautilus in the #Galapagos in 2015. Read it in Marine Biodiversity here: bit.ly/4ofrhws

Hi, hippopotamus expert here! You might think this is cute or funny, but hippos only mug for the camera like this when they are super sick of hearing a terrible holiday song about them that should have been taken off the radio 70 years ago. Do better

I gripe a little bit about the ambiguity of the word "day" — astronomically speaking, of course — and also present you with a *gorgeous* Hubble shot of a face-spiral galaxy that turns out to be part of the puzzle that tells us how the universe expands.

Happy solstice, and a gorgeous galaxy with which to measure the Universe
The longest night is now behind us, and a Hubble image of a galaxy used as a ruler

In the 13.7 billion year history of the universe, you just happen to live in the incredibly brief sliver of time in which bits of that universe congealed into beings who managed to discover that the universe is in fact 13.7 billion years old.

PSA: if anyone in your life is trying to dissuade you from getting the shingles shot, you should probably assume that person hates you, and wants you to suffer. There is literally no other explanation.
Shingles hurts worse than childbirth. Worse than knee surgery. Worst pain of my life.
Shingles hurts worse than childbirth. Worse than knee surgery. Worst pain of my life.
I am baffled by this because I have had so many friends with shingles and NONE of them made it sound fun. Not one. A vaccine that made me absolutely miserable for 48 hours would still be a huge improvement over the mildest case of shingles I've heard of. (Also it made me tired for 1 day.)
All over my FB people talking about their bad experiences with shingles vax and dissuading each other from getting it! We need to give people real info on how to mitigate the symtoms caused by vaccines because vaccines are always better than meeting a virus unprepared. Yet drs aren't coaching ppl

We're getting together in Philly to create art. Why? For community & GOOD.
I'll provide all the art supplies you'll need & a little inspiration on what you can create art about.
We hope to create art that inspires action. Art is great at that, even if you think you're bad at it

In celebration of #WorldMaritimeDay, let's remember our first-ever research vessel, Atlantis!
From 1931-1966, Atlantis helped researchers investigate the secrets of the ocean. The legacy continues with today’s R/V Atlantis, the support ship for deep sea sub Alvin!

Coral & crustaceans! 🪸🦐 Dr. Brenda Doti Dr. says the larger of these crustaceans is a Valvifera isopod fr the Antarcturidae family. These filter-feeders can't lift sediment particles & must find their next meal suspended in the water column.
