Foam blobs on slowly moving water in canal acting as shear strain indicators.

Similar structures occur in shear zones where rocks undergo plastic deformation at depth - they can tell us the amount and direction of shear.

Why should 🧪 be talking about the Trump illegal attacks on science and freedom at universities? For the reason @jdmortenson.bsky.social gives here.

If we don’t say the Vought/P2025 science actions are illegal now, their future actions will stand on firmer legal ground.
For nonlawyers, it’s worth noting that statements like this have—as a formal matter—important legal effects as a matter of international law. If such statements are *not* made, and in volume, future arguments that Trump’s invasion sets a legal precedent will stand on much firmer legal ground.
Norway’s Foreign Minister Espen Barth Eide: "International law is universal and binding for all states. The American intervention in Venezuela is not in accordance with international law."

Science should be there to inspire and bring joy. I've got some ideas I'm looking to explore science-wise, but worried about funding. Here's hoping things work out for everyone in science 🔭🧪🤞
I do science because it brings me joy, despite everything, and because it can bring others joy. What else is planetary science for, except to share the kind of knowledge that makes people excited to learn?
