Dinosaur Expert Critiques Dinosaur Toys

Posted by

We wondered what an expert would have to say about the scientific accuracy of dinosaur toys. So we asked Dr. Paul Olsen, a Columbia University professor and researcher at Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, to share his thoughts on a plethora of plastic dinos.

So yeah, sorry Jurassic World.

Hubble Observes One-of-a-Kind Star

Posted by

Astronomers using NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope have uncovered surprising new clues about a hefty, rapidly aging star whose behavior has never been seen before in our Milky Way galaxy. In fact, the star is so weird that astronomers have nicknamed it “Nasty 1,” a play on its catalog name of NaSt1. The star may represent a brief transitory stage in the evolution of extremely massive stars.

First discovered several decades ago, Nasty 1 was identified as a Wolf-Rayet star, a rapidly evolving star that is much more massive than our Sun. The star loses its hydrogen-filled outer layers quickly, exposing its super-hot and extremely bright helium-burning core.

Please join +Tony Darnell Dr.+Carol Christian and +Scott Lewis  for this week’s #HubbleHangout as they discuss these observations with the astronomers who made them!

Our superheroes in Training are in the second half of their transformations, and they’re facing down the Big Bad of Frustration. How will they face down this menace and continue on their mission?!? Subscribe: http://goo.gl/9AGRm

Our heroes’ bodies are changing, but they’re starting to worry that the few weeks left in training won’t get them where they expected to be. But, as Superstar Trainer Steve Zim reminds them: they’ve got to keep working, to keep those changes happening.

And they’ll definitely want those changes to happen, because they’ll need to look good in our SUPERHERO MOVIE!!!
