Earth-sized #exoplanets must possess at least 20% to 50% of the water volume found in Earth's oceans to maintain the critical natural climate cycles required to sustain surface water and support life. Planets with limited surface water—often classified as desert worlds—are highly unlikely to remain habitable, regardless of their position within a star's habitable zone.

Great chat this morning on the #BBCBreakfast sofa with Nina Warhurst and Roger Johnson on the #UKSpaceIndustry and the importance of funding #Physics and #SpaceSciences. Physics sector is an engine of our #economy, not a drain on it. Without it we'd have less money for schools, hospitals, etc. 🧪🔭

Quantum entanglement is unbelievably bizarre.
This incredible phenomenon occurs between two interconnected subatomic particles. A change in one particle will affect the other particle instantaneously, no matter the distance between the two.
‘QE’ could be the key to the cosmos.

“KEY POINTS
• Workplace experiences in the geosciences differ by gender, race and ethnicity, sexual orientation, ability status, and career stage
• Historically excluded groups report more negative workplace environments and negative career outcomes
• Diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts need to address hostile behavior effects on careers and retention in the geosciences..."
