You’re going directly to the deepest circle of hell.
WOW.
TL;DR:
Vladimir Putin is f*%ked.

Cool, Dan Snyder will finally be out of the American public sphere.
Now, can we change the name again to a name that doesn't suck?
Now this is a level of lighting geekery that I appreciate:
Detailed spectral breakdowns comparing the light on a nanometer to nanometer basis to Planck (sunlight), tungsten, etc.

This is a fantastic deep dive (written to be digestible by a lay audience) about the interstellar visitor ‘Oumuamua (“Is it aliens? Or just a rock? But, it accelerated!”) specifically, & scientific controversy generally.
H/T @planet4589 for the heads up.

Hall of Fame tweet.
One of the all-time greats, right up there with Greta Thunberg’s breathtaking murder of Andrew Tate.
