  1. Curiosity's “bobble” had a silver lining 🌍: a tiny rock slipped from its scoop door and drifted in Mars’s thin air before it fell back.
    🔍 Key insight: the event gave scientists a live demo of Martian dust/aerosol dynamics *and* how the rover’s instruments respond to unexpected motions.

    - Unexpected test of Mars’ atmosphere
    - Real‑time data on dust lofting
    - Lessons for future rover designs

  2. "We explore because we are curious, not because we wish to develop grand views of reality or better widgets." — Brian Cox 🌌✨

    A beautiful reminder that at its absolute core, science isn't just about building the next piece of technology or forcing the universe into a rigid box. It is about the pure, unfiltered human desire to look at the stars and simply wonder "why?" 🚀🔭

  6. A quotation from Samuel Johnson

    The desires of man increase with his acquisitions; every step which he advances brings something within his view, which he did not see before, and which, as soon as he sees it, he begins to want. Where necessity ends, curiosity begins; and no sooner are we supplied with every thing that nature can demand, than we sit down to contrive artificial appetites.

    Samuel Johnson (1709-1784) English writer, lexicographer, critic
    Essay (1758-11-11), The Idler, No. 30

  29. #AI could make humans less intelligent, warns Royal Observatory

    Liv McMahon, May 18, 2026

    Excerpt: "The rise of #AITools that instantly answer questions and complex problems could make humans less intelligent, the Royal Observatory Greenwich has warned.

    "The Observatory, one of the UK's oldest purpose-built scientific institutions, is known for its contributions to astronomy.
    Paddy Rodgers, director of the Royal Museums Greenwich group which oversees it, said its rich history of research showed the power of #HumanKnowledge and #curiosity - and the need to avoid 'complete dependence' on AI.

    " 'A reliance solely on instant answers risks losing the habits of questioning and evaluation that underpin knowledge, expertise and innovation,' he said."
