@no-quarter Not going to happen. Way too expensive.

Watched an Episode on Nat Geo Super Structures, Engineering Marvels, which was on the construction of the International Space Station.
It was excellent!
Talks about the construction of it, oxygen, water, impact from objects in space, was really interesting.

Interesting read, not sure where else to put this.

I know the vastness of space, 4,000,000 km is pretty close, but still...
Leonard swung extremely close to Venus at the weekend, coming within 4 million kilometres.

@taniwharugby Great video. I'm always fascinated by fluid dynamics, particularly aerodynamics in motorsport where they determine the correct amount of flow and where to place the boundary between laminar and turbulent flow - best seen in Formula 1.

In the study of nearly 1.7 million women, the vaccine’s efficacy was particularly pronounced among girls vaccinated before age 17, among whom there was a nearly 90% reduction in cervical cancer incidence during the 11-year study period (2006 through 2017) compared with the incidence in women who had not been vaccinated.

Now we turn to phenylephrine. As you can see, that's a somewhat different structure - there's a phenol on the aryl ring, and there's no longer a chiral methyl group bretween the hydroxy and the N-methyl.
Oh yes absolutely. Stood out like dogs bollocks

Pretty cool, but at the same time also a bit lame...
To get the picture the eight telescopes had to co-ordinate so closely “in a process similar to everyone shaking hands with everyone else in the room”, said astronomer Vincent Fish of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
The project cost nearly US$60 million with US$28 million coming from the US National Science Foundation.
“What’s more cool than seeing the black hole at the centre of our own Milky Way,” said California Institute of Technology's Katherine Bouman.

The cool bit was the work they used to achieve it, they should have big up that!
