A really good thread on the complexity of the subject....worth it just for the insightful remark that “...we should also recognise that we stand on the shoulders of bastards, whether we know it or not” thank you @AdamRutherford
Good thread on naming things after people whose views are now considered unacceptable, in this case the phenomenally brilliant RA Fisher, who was also an staunch eugencist.

This is how home office with a 3 y-o looks like.
I recorded only 20 minutes, but you can see that it is hard to keep focus.

Wanted to share my closest view yet of asteroid Bennu from yesterday’s rehearsal!
This series of images was captured during the 10-minute span between the Checkpoint burn, ~394 ft (120 m) above the surface, and the back-away burn, which occurred ~213 ft (65 m) above the surface.
What better way to celebrate the International Day of Women and Girls in Science than by going to a talk by Nobel prize winner Donna Stickland, only the 3rd Nobel laureate in physics and all time awesome scientist. #WomenScienceDay

@EliudKipchoge’s splits so far are what you would expect – incredible.
He’s on course to make history but we've had some rain and the next 10km will be crucial.
