Thank you @bsky.app and @jay.bsky.team for Bluesky!
Not really relevant. It’s where we were in the 70s that’s different from today.
Hear, hear. && Details matter.
This 3 January 2025, several scientists received the National Medal of Science (www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-roo...). One highly meritorious colleague is Penn State Professor Richard Alley, a geoscientist studying climate and glaciology. Congrats Richard! @agu.org @agucryo.bsky.social
