AI is constantly hallucinating papers and is making up stuff and research that doesn't exist. And to a relatively significant margin, too. This plus the fact that Google scholar is right there just makes it incredibly hard to trust anything @hankgreen.bsky.social put out going forward.

This rate of change in methane gas use is insane. 25% decrease in one year. "That growth in battery capacity managed to shift about three times as much power from the daytime...It has caused the need for gas-fired generation to drop by more than a quarter from the same time last year"

Hello. I have science questions for #AstroSky, specifically Satellite operations. It's for a story I'm writing:) 1.) Can a very strong CME destroy a satellite? 2.) Can turning off the satellite prevent the worst destruction? 3.) Can you actually turn off satellites? Like turn them into stand-by?

This is a picture from last year's lunar eclipse. But just for reference, this is roughly where the now newly named crater "Carroll" is located. #Artemis #ArtemisII #Artemis2
A picture of a mostly full moon, with a slight shadow on the top right corner of the moon. 
On the left hand side roughly 10°N above the equator at the very edge of what's visible of the moon is a small white circle and a purple arrow further indicating this spot of the rough location of moon crater Carroll

After reading this paper by @lowbacca.bsky.social I must oppose a publication in the current state. The core value of 1.8% reduction of solar radiation to offset a doubling in CO2 is not supported by the cited source. Govindasamy and Caldeira estimate that a "shielding of ~1.7%" would suffice. (1/2)

Attention Science Communicators! We are conducting a survey on the landscape of science communication & need your help gathering experiences. Please send this to #SciComm ppl you know. We want to get as thorough a sense of the state of the field as we can. umiami.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...
A block of text that says "Scientists at the University of Miami are carrying out a research study on trends in the field of science communication. 

For this survey we are defining science communication as work that is done: 

• by a technical subject area expert in some field related to science, technology, engineering, or mathematics, 
• outside of classroom settings 
• aimed at the public 

If you are 18 years of age or older and work or recently worked in this field (full-time, part-time, or as a side project), please click the link below to complete a short survey. If you are interested in learning more about this research study, please e-mail us at Julia.wester@miami.edu. In the body of your email please provide your full name, and if you would prefer to be contacted by phone, your phone number and the best time to reach you. Contacting us for more information does not commit you to participating, and should you decide to participate you may terminate your participation at any time."
