I love the announcer diligently awaiting the separation of the stages even minutes after it's extremely obvious that that is not happening. I'm sitting there like bro.... It's flipping over his head and it's on fire. You're not going to get the stage separation. It's going to crash.

There's no way they can separate whatever's special about this glacier that made it do what it did even though it's neighbors did not behave the same way from natural shifts in climate (because didn't most of these glaciers form kind of around the same time) and then human causes. Any...

Seems like if so much debris was going off the smaller body, the larger body would attract and be impacted by some of that, gaining mass and shifting the center of gravity even more towards itself, which would pull the smaller body toward it.

Ive never understood this: wouldn't rock be less dense than magma, because magma is basically super hot liquid that's been compressed so how... if the crust gets cracked why does magma come through it? If you crack something that's extremely buoyant the liquid it's floating on doesn't seep...

Uh yeah if I'm a pilot I want to be able to see what's in front of me with my eyes not with a computer screen that can malfunction

Are you literally Eric Lerner or did you just name your account in his honor or something?

She's so badass. Love this.

No no. Skip all of this. Why is the ocean floor all the same age if subduction is happening which is like necessary for the current model that they're building off of? If these major events are not happening then play tectonics doesn't work how we think it does and you have to start considering...

"Can't duplicate in space the capabilities of major ground operations such as planetary defense" Yeah I don't need my internet coming from space. I like not being struck by damacloids

Cringe apologetics. They aren't thinking about that one bit

Quantum stuff.

Can we download or buy full size digital copies or prints somewhere? I've never figured that out

This is the most embarrassingly forced article I've ever witnessed. All that schooling and this is how it turned out. Devastating. Diversity will not change science at all. if you arbitrarily force it, which is what is suggested and it's what mudd and Caltech at least are doing, science will...

Shoot them down. Shoot them down. Shoot them down.
