Hypnotized by the universe from early on. But @StephenAtHome, must my pubescence have been awkward to make the cut? #PuberMe

Intriguing Thermal Physics in #GameOfThrones: BlueDragon breath would be at least a factor of 3X hotter than RedDragon breath
Good Biology in #GameOfThrones: As in #LordOfTheRings, Dragons forfeited their forelimbs to make wings, like birds & bats.
The sensibly large wingspan of Dragons in #GameOfThrones contrasts with aerodynamically useless wings of Renaissance cherubs.
Good Bio-Physics in #GameOfThrones: The Dragon Wingspans are sensibly large, as their body weight would require for flight.
Bad Physics in #GameOfThrones: Pulling a dragon out of a lake? Chains need to be straight, and not curve over hill and dale.
Farewell Cassini, how far you’ve come. On this eve, in fiery death, Saturn & you are one. VIP (Vaporize In Peace): 2004-2017
Cassini gave us Saturn, but also gave us Earth — as only deep space could reveal: Small. Frail. Lonely. Steeped in darkness.
FYI:@NASA’s Cassini mission cost less than what Americans spent on Lip Balm. @TODAYshow archive 2004: youtube.com/watch?v=V82B0Y…
Welcome back, intrepid Moon — a growing, thin-crescent view. Days ago, we stood in awe of your solar rendezvous.
The divided United States of America will unite today, sharing a cosmic event predicted by the methods and tools of science.
Hayden Associate @JoeRaoWeather interviewed me (and others) about tomorrow’s eclipse. [Video: 6 min]

HEADLINE: "Chimp Returns From Space". That’s a lie. We sent a man up there. That’s what he looked like when he got back. (D. Gregory 1961)
Comedian Dick Gregory always told it like it is. Our laughter was fuel to fight for justice in an unjust world. RIP 1932-2017
Moon’s shadow landfalls Oregon. Crosses USA at 1800mph. Exits SCarolina. Touches no other country. Behold 'Muuurica’s Eclipse

Laid end-to-end @JeffBezos' 90B dollars can circle Earth 273 times, then reach the Moon & back 4 times. Then stack 10 km high
The (Coriolis) Force is strong with Aussies. Like southern hemisphere storms, revolving-doors rotate clockwise in @Australia.
Yup, @IAmSteveHarvey blew a gasket after I told him pronouncing Uranus as “Your-Anus" was okay for 8-yr-olds, but not adults.
