Q for my fellow Trek fans:
To my surprise, my husband's been watching - and enjoying TNG. He's never seen Trek before. I'm tempted to show him TOS next, but wondering if I should interrupt TNG to do it so he has background info for upcoming episodes like "Sarek", "Unification", and "Relics". We just started Season 2.
I'm not sure what he'd think of TOS, and it's a long detour, but I think it'd enhance his appreciation of tho…

The two relics of exploding stars are black holes and neutron stars.
Both were discovered by women.
Jocelyn Bell discovered neutron stars, in the guise of “pulsars”, in 1967.
Since then, three Nobel prizes have gone to male scientists for their work on pulsars, but none to Bell.
Louise Webster, the co-discoverer of black holes, has been largely forgotten.
Unless, of course, you remember her name.

ERA 100 (FF)

English Alt Text:
A black and white image of a utility pole overwhelmed by a chaotic tangle of wires. The wires loop, twist, and hang in various directions, some appearing disconnected or frayed. The dense mass of cables creates a visual maze, suggesting poor maintenance or infrastructure overload. The pole itself is weathered, and the scene hints at potential hazards. The image emphasizes the complexity and disorder of urban electrical systems.

English Alt Text:
A monochrome image of a deteriorating urban area. A brick wall with peeling paint stands in the background, partially damaged and surrounded by scattered bricks and debris. A concrete curb runs along the bottom edge, and a manhole cover is visible nearby. Overgrown weeds and plants emerge from cracks in the pavement. Electrical boxes mounted on metal frames and a chain-link fence suggest infrastructure. The scene evokes neglect and decay, contrasting nature’s per…

A close-up black and white photo of a morning glory flower blooming on a vine wrapped around a metal railing. The flower is on the right side, its delicate petals and central opening clearly visible. The vine’s tendrils and leaves intertwine with the railing, creating a contrast between organic curves and industrial lines. The background is softly blurred, emphasizing the flower’s gentle beauty. The image captures a moment of quiet resilience in an urban setting.…

English Alt Text:
A black and white photo of an outdoor tiled surface made of hexagonal tiles. The tiles are worn and uneven near the top edge, with some broken pieces and scattered debris. In the upper right corner, a small stack of square slabs tied with string sits atop a short stand or stool. The slabs appear heavy and utilitarian, possibly construction materials. The scene captures a gritty urban texture, with strong contrasts between the geometric tile pattern and the roughn…
