This kid is an inspiration to us all.

Bishop Curry V may be young (10 years old, to be precise), but the little kid from Texas has some big ideas. He’s currently working on a device that could help prevent children from dying in hot cars.

The number of children who died in hot cars increased across the country last year, and Texas had the highest number of cases. Sadly for Bishop, the issue also hits close to home because a baby died in a minivan last summer outside a home near his own family’s home in McKinney.

Bishop was inspired to create a device he calls “Oasis,” which would attach to a car seat and detect if a child is left inside the vehicle, prompting it to blow cool air until parents or the police are notified.

“It would be a dream to have lots of inventions that would save many lives,” the precocious 10-year-old told the news station.

A lot of people don’t realize how easy it is to leave something in a hot car. It’s easy to forget something when it’s not in your daily routine, especially if it’s asleep or under a blanket or something. This is a nightmare. I don’t have kids myself, but I can absolutely understand how this could happen- everyone’s sick so you’re probably kind of out of it, you run in thinking you’re just going to be a minute, get distracted with the task at hand… and then your child dies in a horrific way because of it…

I’m all for any methods or technologies that can help prevent it from turning tragic.

Please, please do research before you buy a bird. Visit a bird rescue, foster if you can. Then see if birds are right for you. Birds are messy, loud and need love and attention. The bird in comic, broke my heart.

TW: animal death / animal neglect

I wanted to draw this comic for a long time, but I never knew how to approach this issue. In my childhood all my friends had budgies, all of them were put aside somewhere and left alone. Treated like “annoying” decoration. Don’t get a bird if you can’t meet its needs.

How will the James Webb Space Telescope change how we see the universe? Ask an expert!

The James Webb Space Telescope is launching on December 22, 2021. Webb’s revolutionary technology will explore every phase of cosmic history—from within our solar system to the most distant observable galaxies in the early universe, to everything in between. Postdoctoral Research Associate Naomi Rowe-Gurney will be taking your questions about Webb and Webb science in an Answer Time session on Tuesday, December 14 from noon to 1 p.m EST here on our Tumblr!

🚨 Ask your questions now by visiting http://nasa.tumblr.com/ask.

Dr. Naomi Rowe-Gurney recently completed her PhD at the University of Leicester and is now working at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center as a postdoc through Howard University. As a planetary scientist for the James Webb Space Telescope, she’s an expert on the atmospheres of the ice giants in our solar system — Uranus and Neptune — and how the Webb telescope will be able to learn more about them.

The James Webb Space Telescope – fun facts:

Webb is so big it has to fold origami-style to fit into its rocket and will unfold like a “Transformer” in space.

Webb is about 100 times more powerful than the Hubble Space Telescope and designed to see the infrared, a region Hubble can only peek at.

With unprecedented sensitivity, it will peer back in time over 13.5 billion years to see the first galaxies born after the Big Bang––a part of space we’ve never seen.

It will study galaxies near and far, young and old, to understand how they evolve.

Webb will explore distant worlds and study the atmospheres of planets orbiting other stars, known as exoplanets, searching for chemical fingerprints of possible habitability.

Make sure to follow us on Tumblr for your regular dose of space!

This. This right here is why I REPEATEDLY said I didn’t believe it and why I felt the need to tell several people to stop spreading rumors and check your sources.

Every single photo op and autograph session ran late this weekend. EVERY single one, and for a variety of reasons. All of which boiled down to, you have a lot of people signing up for these things and both ops end up taking forever. And sometimes things get paused, ALSO for a variety of reasons (like, for example, they’re running late and the talent could, oh I don’t know, use a fucking break).

A lot of this was started and SPREAD by people who weren’t there. And yet this nonsense went down, making Chris have to address it PUBLICLY (which I PROMISE YOU means it’s going to get picked up by the news media, and he’s going to have to KEEP addressing it).

Next time, check your fucking sources. Get PROOF. And stop turning the Marvel fandom into a crazy place. A lot of us like it here.

I like this! Explains their relationship perfectly! ^_^

McKAY: OK. We think we’ve found a way to uncouple the nanite cells from Elizabeth’s cells. We create a distraction. What were the nanites originally designed to do? DEX: Fight the Wraith. McKAY: Exactly. So that’s what we’ll get them to do now. We think by implanting a small amount of Wraith tissue into Doctor Weir’s body… the nanite cells will essentially attack it. They have to - it’s what they are programmed to do, which will draw them away from Elizabeth’s cells, effectively unbinding them….that’s all we need; momentary distraction to draw them away from her so we can zap ‘em with the E.M. pulse.
