China is carrying out the solar revolution at scale. Here panels float on a reservoir in northwest China. This is just one of many massive solar power plants. See more here:

Meanwhile Trump is fighting solar power and pushing coal. These days the Chinese call him 特朗普, "Comrade Jianguo". Literally this means "Comrade Building the Nation". It's a joke about "Make America Great Again". It hints that Trump is a comrade building the greatness of China by holding back the US.

TIL about the super cool phenomenon of supercooled freeze pop popsicles when my son took one out of the freezer in a still liquid form and we watched it crystalize after he squeezed it. Physics is amazing!

I see from the "Mayday"episode currently playing on the Real Disaster Channel that the Embraer involved in the de-icing boot bridging myth crash HAD WINGS CURVED BOTH TOP AND BOTTOM.

According to all the Bernoulli principle brainiacs out there, this wing should not work.

I imagine the Coanda effect cerebrals might still explain it, but would have to explain why the curved underside doesn't result in a reverse lift downwards! ...

Happy Space Science Saturday! Did you know that today Saturn begins its retrograde motion? Normally, Saturn moves eastward against the background of stars, but during retrograde it appears to pivot and move westward through the constellations. This apparent backward motion isn’t because Saturn actually reverses its orbit, but rather because of Earth’s own motion around the Sun. As Earth passes Saturn in its orbit, our changing perspective makes Saturn appear to move backward in the night sky.

Hi fam, have a fulfilling day! #SummerVibes with fascinating #physics: #reflections and #refraction Raindrops on a tent wall act like a magnifying glass for the fabric. They cast shadows! At the same time, they focus light rays into focal points. #macrophotography #PhotographyIsArt
