"This still doesn't make me a birder", I whisper to myself as I read about the Great Backyard Bird Count. "It's for science", I tell myself. #birds
This is a real thing. You can help.
Its good for you and relaxing.

Why the Artemis II Crew Stays in Quarantine Before Their Journey to Moon
For two weeks, medical experts monitor the astronauts as they remain indoors, live in isolation, and avoid physical touch, all to prevent harmful microbes from traveling to space.

Elephant seals take short naps while on deep dives. On the way to 7000 ft below, they fall asleep while diving in spirals downwards. When they get there, they wake up and forage for food

Rx Inspector, our free, searchable tool, allows you to look up where your generic prescription drug was made.
From patients and doctors to researchers, it is already reshaping how people make decisions. “This is a godsend,” one professor told us.

It's bad enough we have to put up with their 3rd grade understanding of genetics and of climate - but really?
No, class, gravity cannot "turn off," unless the planet gets obliterated and breaks into tiny pieces, in which case you have way bigger things to worry about, like...breathing.

Nature rarely builds solid. Bird bones, seashells and honeycombs use clever, porous designs to stay strong without the extra weight.
Now, #3Dprinting is letting engineers copy those natural blueprints — “printing air” into products that are lighter, safer and more efficient. ⬇️
