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.

I tried jumping as high as I could, but it turns out my momentum is keeping me in orbit around Sol, and it would take an astonishing amount of energy to overcome that.

Plus, I have a suspicion that I'd succumb to the Death Space before I could get close enough.

It can definitely kill you though.
