If the oxygenator breaks down, I’ll suffocate. If the water reclaimer breaks down, I’ll die of thirst. If the hab breaches, I’ll just kind of implode. If none of those things happen, I’ll eventually run out of food and starve to death. So, yeah. I’m fucked. - The Martian, dir. Ridley Scott

Eratosthenes was an ancient Greek mathematician who calculated the Earth's circumference over 2,000 years ago. On the summer solstice, he measured the angle of a shadow in Alexandria, where it was about 7 degrees, while no shadow was cast in Syene. By determining the distance between the two cities and using basic geometry, he estimated the Earth's circumference to be around 40,000 kilometers, which is remarkably close to the modern measurement of 40,030 kilometers.
And it has Carl Sagan in it. The video doesn’t just demonstrate a science fact, but how critical thinking works, asking why and how, then design a way to test if something is true,
Being the only girl in a maths class of 12 students and yet getting the highest grade has to be one of the best feelings ever
I think about the Beast Below episode an ungodly amount because it just shows how kind the Doctor is. I know there are other episodes that also show this but Beast Below has my heart.
The fact that the Doctor knew exactly what was going on because a child was crying, then going through everything to see why this was happening. Then the heartbreaking discovery of the star whale. How the star whale came from the stars to help the children- because it was so old and so kind just like the doctor
I know this is like base level stuff but god- such a good episode
I am FEELING THINGS about this book
my nichest little take on twilight is what the fuck was esme doing all day. like imagine being literally immortal and centuries old and the author who created you was so encrusted in gender roles that you’re forced to be a housewife for eternity
Don't you just love it when women in stem
