Don’t know why I should care about the science literacy of others. But I do.
Maybe it’s because the future of civilization depends on it.

Humans have been making calculating machines for millennia, from the ancient abacus to the mysterious Antikythera mechanism.
However, the history of modern computing began in the 19th century with the work of Babbage and Lovelace.

Christopher Nolan’s attention to detail in #Oppenheimer was so thorough I’m giving him a hall pass on this one:
July 16, 1945, 5:30am Los Alamos, New Mexico is in full dawn of summer twilight. But cinematically, the atomic explosion looks more striking against the dark of night

In @BarbieTheMovie, the Moon's orientation places Barbie World between 20 & 40 deg North Latitude on Earth. Palm trees further constrain latitude between 20 & 30 deg. The Sun & Moon rose & set over the ocean. If it’s in the US, Barbie World lands somewhere in the Florida Keys.

This deadly backflip, Dead Loop, is one of the most life-threatening tricks and its also known as the Korbut Flip because it was first performed by Belarusian gymnast Olga Korbut in 1972 at the Munich Olympics. However, the trick was only documented once and was banned in 1972 due to its dangerous nature 😲🤸♀️
She gained a 9.8/10 by standing on a high bar and performing a backflip before gripping the bar again. Korbut has forever etched her name in gymnastics history for the finesse she flaunted while performing the Dead Loop back.
