Below is a 🧵 of recent (since mid-late July) science news as it relates to what Trump is doing to federal science and related topics. This is meant to keep track of his dismantling and also so I myself don’t miss anything. Also my apologies for any repetitiveness.

Timelapse of the aurora over North America last night. Real-time THEMIS ASI data are plotted (low-res). There were relatively quiet solar wind data, but aurora was still present at high-latitudes under the auroral oval. Fairbanks saw aurora late in the morning.

Sunday is the Winter Solstice in the northern hemisphere. The point in the year when daylight is at its shortest

Across the UK, daylight will be in short supply:
Less than 8 hours in the far south 🕑
And under 6 hours in the far north 🕑

I like places where a lot is going on, but it’s subtle. Stone, water, moss, distance, weather. Each plays a small part in the bigger picture.

The fossil record preserves bones, not biodiversity.
But extinction happens at the scale of bacteria, fungi, mosses, microfauna, parasites, soil invertebrates.
Entire kingdoms of life disappear without leaving a mark.
