#BillNyeFilm

I don't know about you, but I would love to see a documentary about Bill Nye's personal mission to change the world via enthusiastic science education. Please, help make this thing a reality!


Personally, I'm also looking forward to seeing Bill Nye's notes on the Hamm on Nye debate, since it seems to me a slightly more intimate look into the mind of the man... and there's a certain childish glee involved in those Emojis, isn't there?

Our Robotic Agents Continue to make History

So is everyone else bursting with excitement?

We should shortly be receiving images of New Horizons' close flyby of the distant icy dwarf known as Pluto, but in the meantime, we have its previous efforts to keep our imaginations busy.



New Horizons Spacecraft Displays Pluto’s Big Heart

Did you know that Pluto's diameter is roughly equal to the driving distance from St. John's to Quebec City?

Or that because Pluto's mass is roughly 60% ice, if it were as close to the sun as we are, it would be instantly recognizable as a comet due to the long tail it would form?

Or that I watch/listen to a LOT of Neil deGrasse Tyson's interviews?
