Second all of these video choices! The “Future of” series of short docs is terrific. Highly recommend “Future of Water” and “Future of Cities”. Great for several subject topics. 💛 🎥

Thank you very much for these updates. My 8th Graders are studying hurricanes and we are following the development & progression of Melissa. I truly appreciate that I can share your reports with them. We are worried for the people of Jamaica.

Debris from Halley’s Comet lights up the sky with the Orionid meteor shower! 🌌🧪

This meteor shower will be active from Sept. 26 to Nov. 22, and will peak on October 21. These are actually fragments from Halley’s Comet, which orbits the Sun every 76 years.

Brewers b/c of Yelich, Chourio, Contreras, plus I like seeing new teams make it, not the same ones every year. Once Red Sox are out, I like cheering for other players I like. Toronto, Seattle, & Milwaukee are such fun teams to watch.

Salt marshes are powerful protectors—buffering coastlines from storms, supporting fisheries like lobster and scallops, and locking away carbon. But what happens in these vital ecosystems during the winter months?

We were sent home from college (in Eastern Massachusetts) & had to tape up dorm windows before leaving. People were blasting U2’s “Gloria” while packing.

Did NASA just discover the best evidence yet of ancient life on Mars? 👽🪐🧪

NASA’s Perseverance rover recently discovered colorful mineral deposits on the Bright Angel formation in Jezero Crater, features that scientists think could be biosignatures, or fossil-like traces of ancient microbes.
