"The biggest (misconception) in general is people think that the mantle is made of magma, or the mantle is molten or liquid.” Earth sciences professor @brenhinkeller.bsky.social discusses misunderstandings about the Earth’s structure with Indy100.
You probably don’t know this about the Earth – and museums get it wrong too

Let's talk about Ernest Everett Just, a cell biologist who unraveled the mysteries of fertilization in spite of the obstacles he faced as an African-American.
Just's story weaves together good, rigorous science with racism & tragedy.
He was born in 1883 in seaside Charleston, South Carolina.
