Top researchers consider leaving U.S. amid funding cuts: 'The science world is ending' / PBS
Right in time for #Halloween 🎃
The VLT Survey Telescope has spotted a spooky bat flying over Paranal in #Chile. But fear not, it's located 10,000 light-years away.
What looks like a "cosmic bat" is in fact a large cloud of cosmic gas and dust where new stars are being born. Let's fly through it in this video...if you dare! 🦇

"75% of scientific researchers in the U.S. are considering leaving the country" - must-watch if you haven't fully grasped yet the attack of Trump on US science.. It's somehow more impactful to see actual testimonies instead of facts and numbers:

The whole #Trump thing is sad but the long-term damage of what he is doing against research and science, not just in the US but worldwide, is horrible. Just like the damage on the planet, it is not too late to resist of and fix it though! Universities should stick together, people should come out in support of scientists, PIs should come out of their silence - as in this video - to alert the public on the ongoing destruction.

Fascinating graph shows the estimated total mass of all the mammals living on Earth.
In 1850, it was evenly divided between wildlife and humans + domesticated animals. Today, humans and their livestock account for about 95% of the total.

Wireless chip placed in the eye gives people with advanced macular degeneration enough vision to read books and subway signs.
Can't help but think we'll someday have implants like this that communicate with our devices, with the net, lightyears beyond Meta glass or Vision Pro.

Just chatted about the future of molecular modeling and realized we lean too much on automation. AI is powerful, but those “aha” moments from years of intuition still drive breakthroughs. Human‑in‑the‑loop lets us spot patterns, tackle edge cases, and guide data toward creative solutions. How do you balance automation with expertise in your work? 🤔

Answer: Because most #doctors who see patients all day know nothing about #COVID & even less about #longCOVID. They are ~17 years behind #scientists. If they were at all familiar with the #science they'd be wearing #respirators.
