Apropos of nothing, if a nine minute video about the #pencils in the movie Tár sounds intriguing, then I’ve got just the link for you:

This is the latest in a series from #FranBlanche on the “Pencils of Hollywood.” Fran is an engineer, a #ScienceNerd , a guitar effects pedal designer, and a social and cultural commentator. In the best possible way, her YouTube channel seems to be a pure expression of her interests and personality. I love it.

Certain people were making fun of me for taking photos of this velvet mite today. I will not apologize.

Gravity: Obey It. It’s the Law.
Judge: You’re under arrest.
Me: What for?
Judge: You ignored gravity. It’s the law.

“A #ScienceNerd” who wanted to collect all the elements of the #PeriodicTable could face jail time after ordering #radioactive material over the #internet.

But Emmanuel Lidden, 24, will have to wait to learn his sentence after breaching nuclear non-proliferation laws by shipping samples of plutonium to his parents’ suburban Sydney apartment.

Lidden pleaded guilty to offences under #Australia’s #NuclearNonProliferation Act ☢️ that carry a possible 10-year jail sentence, and is due to receive his sentence from the judge Leonie Flannery on 11 April.

The importation sparked a major hazmat alert, with Australian Border Force (#ABF) officials, #firefighters, #police and #paramedics all attending the scene in August 2023.

Far from there being any intention of building something nefarious like a nuclear weapon, Lidden’s lawyer John Sutton described his client as an “innocent collector” and “science nerd” who had been left flipping burgers after being sacked from his job because of the investigation.”

Smart but not well read.

Can anyone think where #Pu might be found on the ground in #Aus?

WRONG ANSWERS ONLY

I'm a massive science nerd, and space is my greatest love!

I may not always understand it, but I'm captivated by it.

Neil deGrasse Tyson and many others fuel my curiosity, inspiring me with their insights.

The vastness of the universe, black holes, exoplanets, and the possibility of life beyond Earth are all mind-blowing!

Who else shares this obsession? 🚀✨

Fun is:
Nerd talking about Therac-25 with the radiologist while she's taking my images. She even let me look at the software's UI 😁

Warning! Nerd 🤓 Alert ⚠️...
Just watched a #SpaceX #Falcon9 rocket from our house in #LasVegas, following the launch from Vandenberg Space Force Base. Very cool - caught the launch simulcast online, and then could see it just minutes later. #ScienceNerd

@maisiesummers Thanks, that's lovely. No I hadn't heard them.

Have you caught older videos from Tim Blais and his A Capella Science channel? He's an actual scientist who used music videos to teach about physics. I'm a #ScienceNerd so I love the ideas. Here's Entropic Time. The singing's not quite as good but the video's fun.
