The Stars Revolt: Why Me? · 6:10pm Feb 24th, 2020

Shepherd: "Why did I end up here and not someone more qualified to analyze all this magic stuff? Like Neil deGrassi Tyson? Or Michio Kaku? Or Michael Collins?"

Twilight: "Who?"

Shepherd: "He was the third astronaut on Apollo 11."

Dash: "The guy who didn't land on the moon? Why him?"

Super Science Friends · 1:21pm Nov 19th, 2015

If the idea of the likes of Marie Curie, Einstein and Darwin as time-travelling superheros battling zombie robot monsters appeals, then take a look at this new animation.

The work of a super-talented team of animators, who have made a special effort to make sure no interfering experts with petty concerns about the accuracy of the depictions of science or scientists could get in the way of their creative vision.

Bradel Needs CS Advice · 5:34pm Dec 5th, 2015

Hey all.

Sorry about dropping off-grid for a lot of the last month. I'd been expecting to get a lot of pony stuff done lately, but I got hit with a sudden change in my plans for the winter just before Thanksgiving. In fact, that's what I'd like to talk about here.

Science Post: Our Coming Robot Overlords · 2:45pm Oct 5th, 2015

Had a slow hour today, and realized there's a subject I've yet to breach outside Sufficiently Advanced itself. And even then, only in subtext so far.

The robots coming for our jobs.


Oh, and on a minor but important note: SA might be getting a restructuring soon to make the horrible current description go away in a satisfying manner.

So bored... · 1:01pm May 4th, 2016

I'm in science right now. Teacher's nice, but HOLY CRAP she's boring! It doesn't help I have science right at the start of the day, so I'll be especially tired and sleepy, let alone bored with my current location. Does ANYONE have any ideas I can use to aid me in waking me from my sleep? I could really use the help right about now.

It is physically a struggle to keep my eyes open. :rainbowlaugh:

Kickstarter for preserving a vital part of space history · 1:42pm Jul 22nd, 2015

The spacesuit worn by Neil Armstrong as part of the first moon-landing is apparently degrading, and the Smithsonian can't afford preserving it on their own. :facehoof:

Yes, that one tiny-tiny mile-stone I'm sure nobody remembers. Not that important, I guess. It's not like we...

Captain Picard needs our help to build flying robots that steal the snot from whales · 12:16am Jul 26th, 2015

Yes, you read that head-line right.

No, I am neither drunk, nor making that up.

Captain Picard does indeed want our help to build flying robots to steal whale snot.

For science!

Wow has it really been three weeks since I last did a blog post?

First news this week: Quillo Manar did a rather nice reading of The Art of Eclipse Engineering on YouTube, so you can now enjoy listening to this short story accompanied by appropriate music and pictures of eclipses. You don’t need to wear goggles.

SciComm with Fanfic – Further details · 9:03pm Aug 8th, 2019

It was great to see lots of interest in the proposal in my last blog post. This has convinced me this project is worth pursuing, but also highlighted a few things I need to think about. I will now work on preparing a more detailed description of what I want, a full brief of the particle physics topics (I think my abstract on antimatter was perhaps a bit too abstract an illustration). I will then invite anyone interested to pitch me a (very brief) story idea. If I manage to stick to my summer

Speculations on Pony Magic · 4:57am Nov 29th, 2016

Many words have already been spoken and written about this: doorknobs, quills, and whatever things that are problematic to use if you have to operate them with hooves. Some say those are remnants of a human civilization, and that definitely could make Lyra happy. But how do ponies manage to deal with all that stuff?

Magic!

Okay, ponies have magic, but not every pony, isn't it so? Nope!

State of the Science Communicator · 12:14am Jan 28th, 2019

Apologies for not posting so much over the last two months. I have not been so active on Fimfiction for a while for various reasons. The past year has been difficult in more than one way. But I am hoping to be more active for 2019.

It seems a good time to reflect on what I am doing.

The Family is Most Important, Part 1: Sluts Should Be Shamed · 5:31pm Dec 4th, 2020

The family is the backbone of our entire society, and right now, it has osteoporosis. There are so many attacks against the traditional family and the values of sex and responsibilities that the rising generation is is trouble. Millions of children grow up without fathers, being raised to believe that men are worthless or that women should be sexually free, and you can change their gender or come out of the closet at age 8 or lower. Indoctrinating children with this is not only foolish, it’s
