I disagree with Belle’s. Her smarts helped her figure out what was going on and her humanity made her want to save the whole castle.

You need to care about net neutrality. You need to care about protecting it.
The creepiest happy hat ever.
I could easily imagine this being part of the official dress code in some creepy dystopian society.

They did it! NASA successfully lanuched the Ares 1-X this afternoon. The rocket, a prototype for NASAs future shuttle, is the tallest ever built and nearly reached hypersonic speed.
Mission managers watch as the Ares 1-X launches from NASA Kennedy in Cape Canaveral, FL. The photo was taken by Bill Ingalls.
This.
This is the next big step toward interplanetary exploration. This excites me so very much.
I feel very excited, and at the same time quite nauseated thinking about the price of that sucker.
I hear this so often when I talk about exciting scientific research. “But, the cost” or “how many hungry could we have fed without hat” and more. But I’d like to point out that every dollar ever spent by NASA has more than paid for itself at a rate much higher than inflation. Similar numbers can be found on every scientific endeavor that has ever tried to be measured. Now, not specific experiments, the nature of the scientific process is learning from repeated failures, but across time and subjects, increased investment in research has always produced exceptionally high monetary rate of return.
Notably, this does not factor in how much life has changed thanks to the innovations first conceived in basic research. Remeber, the modern computer (and therefore the computer industry) is built on innovations produced by two guys dicking around with million dollar magnets.
Investing in war - yeah, screw that. We could feed and educate all children world wide for several years with what was spent on Iraq thus far.
Investing in GM - clearly, that has gone well…
Investing in the Banks makes me want to hurl too.
I plead with you though, never let investing in science make you queasy. I know the benefits are not always clear, but I promise you it is worth every penny.
