Was hoping to see @SpaceX but it’s delayed. Instead we saw TWO BABY SEA TURTLES being rescued from their nest. 65 others had hatched on their own last night, these two were found after the @SeaTurtlePS checked the nest. (turtles need to reach beach on own for strengthening) – at Florida, USA

You don’t have to be a formally trained scientist to accomplish meaningful science. I think everyone should embrace the love of exploration. Puppies do it, squids do it and elephants do it, but people, perhaps, do it best of all: explore, remember and pass information along.
