I LOVE all these "everybody contributes to science" projects, but PLEASE stop calling them citizen science and start calling them COMMUNITY SCIENCE projects (and community scientists) instead.
It's a far more inclusive and non-limiting term.

Two citizen scientist groups (including high school students) contributed to academic studies confirming the existence of different planet candidates. One project was led by Dr. Dan Peluso and the other by Dr. Lauren Sgro, both using the Unistellar Network. 🧪🔭🛰️👩🔬

“Israel” isn’t “failing to protect civilians,” it’s not even willing to kill civilians as collateral damage in order to kill Hamas fighters. These framings obscure what should be obvious at this point: “Israel” is TARGETING CIVILIANS. You don’t kill tens of thousands by accident!

Forget IMRD!
ILMRD is the logical structure of papers.
This:
1. Introduction: What did I want to know and why?
2. Literature Review: Who else has written about this?
3. Methods: How did I study it?
4. Results: What did I find?
5. Discussion: What do these findings mean?
