Georg von Hevesy je sumil, da mu gospodinja pripravlja jedi iz ostankov.🤔Ostanke hrane je posipal z radioaktivnim sledilom.💡Ko mu je gospodinja postregla isto hrano, je z detektorjem potrdil,da je radioaktivna.🤨

Research posts on Bluesky are more original — and get better engagement
Bluesky posts about science garner more likes and reposts than similar ones on X.

Overheard the earthling and her friends talking about "vintage websites," so I asked about it. "Oh, you know, the ones it's easier to trust. Like if they're copyright 2012 or they still have that 2005-looking design."
We've taught the youth to distrust up-to-date information. Great work, AI.

I went from finishing my PhD, straight to the private sector and have thoroughly enjoyed my job for the last 19 years. There are so many opportunities outside academia, but I agree, non-academic #careers are not really discussed inside of academia. #AcademicSky 🧪

Here are some of the most curious and promising places to gather solar energy, according to the Swiss.
1. Why not do something with the unused space between Switzerland’s 5,300 kilometres of railway tracks?

We are seeing an increasing number of satellite launches where the owner, and even the owner's country, is not announced, contrary to the spirit (and arguably letter) of UN Res 1721B.

🛰️ To bo prvi evropski sondirni satelit v geostacionarni orbiti. Zagotavljal bo izboljšane podatke za napovedovanje vremena in zaznavanje neviht. Na vsakih 30 minut bo tudi nad Slovenijo posodobljal meritve hiperspektralnega infrardečega senzorja s talno ločljivostjo 4 km.

Wow! I’ve never seen anything like this 😱
This CCTV footage captures the powerful M7.7 earthquake that struck Myanmar in March. You can clearly see the dramatic shift in the ground.
You need to watch it a few times to take everything in. Don't be distracted by the gate. Absolutely surreal.

How do past floods shape future preparedness? While flood-affected households expect future impacts, they don’t always see them as more severe. The key to better adaptation? Boosting self-efficacy and social support, not just risk awareness. Learn more from Dominic Sett (PICO4.6, Fri, 8:53). #EGU25

Žiga Malek (UL-BF) in Blaž Repe (UL-FF) o rodovitnih tleh in drugih površinah, ki jih izgubljamo vsak dan.
"Ne zavedamo se, kako malo imamo površin, na katerih lahko pridelujemo hrano"
Slovenija ima zelo malo površin, ki so primerne za kmetijsko dejavnost, a smo jih v zadnjih desetletjih vseeno uspeli veliko izgubiti. Večino tal so porasli gozdovi, a precej bolj problematična je poz...
