I don’t like thinking about #space too long because every time I do it makes everything I’ve been working so hard on seem like inconsequential bullshit.

I *love* the exoplanet/solar system posters from JPL (they are the inspo for my #SpaceGym, see here if curious: https://www.tumblr.com/starrytimepod/707702040904843264/space-gym-saga-finishing-the-project?source=share)
But I might have been sleeping on these #Space #Telescope posters... they're awesome!

Great TED talk by Ali Hajimiri on solar power satellites.
But if this tech can be deployed to power the world, it can even more easily and cheaply be adapted to build a solar sunshade. The sunshade doesn't need complex electronics, it's just thin-film solar sails. To repeat: IF we can power the world using solar power sats, we can MORE CHEAPLY and EASILY stop global warming in its tracks by deploying a sunshade.

Eleni Ravanis' post https://mars.nasa.gov/mars2020/mission/status/467/boulder-bonanza-science-and-sampling-attempts-at-the-onahu-outcrop/ lives up to expectations (set by #Curiosity's team) for a good progress report by #NASA, IMO. It not only explains what happened with the recent sampling attempts, but lays out #Perseverance team's plans for the near future, too.
It also provides a number of unofficial names the team has given to ground features, albeit without a map.

How much did the heavy rains help California's water crisis? @nasa NASA's GRACE-FO satellite has the answer.
The greatest net gain of water in nearly 22 years. Think of the state’s Central Valley region as a giant swimming pool: GRACE-FO measures all the water contained in the lakes, rivers, soil, snowpack, and underground aquifers. Winter storms raised levels about 20 inches.
