Welcome to c/science_memes @ Mander.xyz!

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.



Rules

  1. Don't throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.

Interesting, I just finished reading Rendezvous With Rama.

If a massive object like that was to pass through our neighbourhood I think it could fling planets out of the solar system.

You may enjoy Fritz Leiber's short story, "A Pail of Air", which involves the Earth being ejected.
