my nichest little take on twilight is what the fuck was esme doing all day. like imagine being literally immortal and centuries old and the author who created you was so encrusted in gender roles that you’re forced to be a housewife for eternity

I think about the Beast Below episode an ungodly amount because it just shows how kind the Doctor is. I know there are other episodes that also show this but Beast Below has my heart.

The fact that the Doctor knew exactly what was going on because a child was crying, then going through everything to see why this was happening. Then the heartbreaking discovery of the star whale. How the star whale came from the stars to help the children- because it was so old and so kind just like the doctor

I know this is like base level stuff but god- such a good episode

✦ @booksociety​’s To the Stars event: The Martian by Andy Weir LOG ENTRY: SOL 475 I’m in trouble. I watched two Phobos transits yesterday and sighted Deneb last night. I worked out my location as accurately as I could, and it wasn’t what I wanted to see. As far as I can tell, I hit Marth Crater dead-on. Craaaaap. I can go north or south. One of them will probably be better than the other, because it’ll be a shorter path around the crater. I figured I should put at least a little effort into figuring out which direction was best, so I took a little walk this morning. It was over a kilometer to the peak of the rim. That’s the sort of walk people do on Earth without thinking twice, but in an EVA suit it’s an ordeal. I can’t wait till I have grandchildren.

Top Study Tips from NASA

Study smarter this school year! We asked scientists, engineers, astronauts, and experts from across NASA about their favorite study tips – and they delivered. Here are a few of our favorites:

Study with friends

Find friends that are like-minded and work together to understand the material better. Trading ideas with a friend on how to tackle a problem can help you both strengthen your understanding.

Create a study environment

Find a quiet space or put on headphones so you can focus. You might not be able to get to the International Space Station yet, but a library, a study room, or a spot outside can be a good place to study. If it’s noisy around you, try using headphones to block out distractions.

Take breaks

Don’t burn yourself out! Take a break, go for a walk, get some water, and come back to it.
