Researchers make a plastic that includes bacteria that can digest it

Bacterial spores strengthen the plastic, then revive to digest it in landfills.

Watch this satellite obliterate the Kuiper Belt object moving through this set of images.

The dumb satellite is so bright that our auto-detect software threw out the whole stack, because it destroyed the average brightness.

It pisses me off to no end that my taxpayer-funded telescope time is now less and less effective because of one for-profit private company.

(P.S. software dudes: please don't try to mansplain workarounds, believe me, a LOT of astronomers are working hard on this)

A gif of a Kuiper Belt object slowly moving across a set of images. It just looks like a fuzzy dot. Toward the end of the sequence, there's a super bright diagonal line that covers up the moving dot - that was a satellite.

@sundogplanets oh damn :sadness:

Why in god's name would ANYONE pay someone to type words into Google/OpenAI when they could just quickly do it themselves???

@nixCraft because people even lack that skill

Running htop and other random Linux/Unix terminal commands are always associated with scams or hacks. LOL.

Just a reminder we won’t ever be using AI tools for articles 👍

We also don’t chase search engines with clickbait SEO crap either. By humans for humans.

@gamingonlinux well... technically we are an infinite amount of monkeys and one of us already has written the works of Shakespeare, so.... there is already plenty of writing in existence

I've been watching the Duke Nukem Forever 2001 E3 trailer at least once a year for over two decades now. 😅 Still great.
I really don't remember ever being intrigued so much by a videogame trailer ever again. Ever. A close second would probably be the Metal Gear Solid 2 trailer.
