  1. Science’s three big hopes for finding alien life One of humanity's biggest hopes (and fears) is to find evidence of life beyond Earth. We now have three scientific methods for seeking it, with one likely to pay off soon. bigthink.com/starts-with-... #space #astro #astrobiology #exoplanets #life

  2. Ask Ethan: What do surveys of physicists actually reveal? A recent survey of physicists was conducted by the American Physical Society. We learned a lot about their arrogance and willingness to opine, but about nature? Not so much. bigthink.com/starts-with-... #space #astro #physics #survey

  7. Just experienced with Astro:

    If you instantly dismiss issue reports or suggestions from your community—especially for bureaucratic reasons, not even considering merit—, you’re neither doing good engineering nor are you honoring your community.

    Said in full empathy for open-source maintainers.

  12. Why “galactic archaeology” is not archaeology at all There's a science for studying the assembly, history, and evolution of our galaxy. Infrared astronomy has taught us so much, but calling it "galactic archaeology" is too much. bigthink.com/starts-with-... #space #astro #physics #history

    Why
