Morning, its Wednesday & heading towards the weekend, it is always a good feeling.
I stayed at this spot in Scotland a wee while watching the light, the rainbows (posted previously), the rain clouds, it was like watching nature own light show. 💜

Mankind no longer fears the spirits that dwell in the deepest forests. We have lost our respect for those who came before us, who watch us still with eyes not of this realm. We have forgotten what our ancestors knew by instinct: the world is to be feared, not understood.

Not to be THAT dictionary, but…
It’s ‘per se,’ not ‘per say.’
It’s ‘dog-eat-dog world,’ not ‘doggy-dog world.’
It’s ‘hunger pangs,’ not ‘hunger pains.’
It’s ‘one and the same,’ not ‘one in the same.’
It's 'buck naked,' not 'butt naked.'

In the last 6 days, 9 asteroids passed inside the Moon’s orbit. Estimated sizes: ~1–38 m. All were discovered this month, a reminder that countless small, faint NEOs slip by unnoticed until they make a close pass.

Hot-carrier solar cells just got a boost!⚡
New research shows they stay efficient even when electrons and holes run at different temps, simplifying design + pushing solar tech closer to its 86% efficiency potential.

The government's welfare Bill is a cruel and disgusting attack on disabled people and their right to live in dignity.
MPs should ask themselves: did you become an MP so you could push thousands of disabled people into poverty?

Okay I truly need a break from reading molecular biology papers. Would you all (especially the scifi-writing/non-science community who follows me) be interested in a sci-comm thread explaining what a Hopf bifurcation is? 🙂
