I have been assessing the status of snails from all across North America and had been a bit confused about the lack of data for most everywhere....except Los Angeles. Until I read about their Snailblitz!
L.A., you ROCK!! ๐ ๐

Also it is definitely a raven in the picture and not a crow. I know how to ID them. In the photo you canโt see the field marks but I saw them irl.. so stop calling it a crow

Went to get coffee and was watching this raven, and it started tearing the โhigh voltageโ sign off the pole.. I collected the pieces and left it some bagel so it would not think Iโm stealing

So this is pretty neat: Although will measure the magnetic field of Asteroid Psyche, the spacecraft also generates its own magnetic fields that need to be understood before it carries out its mission. Check this visualization out: solarsystem.nasa.gov/resources/2788

The Orbital Marine tidal turbine really earns its sci-fi aesthetic considering that it's harvesting residual lunar energy

This is maddening. I don't know why all these places feel entitled to use our work for free.

God, and the way this is worded in Japanese, holy shit.
It's very VERY clear, and the tech kids who were so pumped are just stopped cold.
We need more big names to speak up seriously like this.

The #StellersSeaEagle was NOT on my list of contenders for 200th bird in NB! While we were celebrating our initial view after it had flown away, it was found again on a side street and could be easily seen across that road. I feel like I met a celebrity!
