Hello Science, Reason, and Irish for a day (or more), Inclined Readers,
I’m going to go much lighter this week. Last week was loaded with a lot of links and content.
I missed it last week but Feb 11 it was International Day of Women and Girls in Science. I personally think more than a month should be “allotted” for this rather than just a day. But keep in mind that today is the illustrious St. Pat’s Day and There have been many Irish scientists and inventors that should be given credit where credit is due! Scientists should have many days throughout the year dedicated to them! You might consider getting ready for Nov 10-17! Here’s one more article of stimulating thoughts and conversation.
Last week, science faired well at the Academy Awards with Oppenheimer taking the best picture award. Too bad women were so underrepresented. If you haven’t seen it, I recommend it.
So let’s take a look at some upcoming opportunities coming in the next week. I think these look particularly interesting.
1- Virtual Tour: Caltrain Electric Trains Deep Dive Wed @ 12:30
2- The UFO Movie THEY Don’t Want You to See – Livestream Th @ 4:00
3- Rocketfest Wed 10:00-4:00 Oakland
4- Twilight Marsh Walk Sat @ 6:30 Fremont
5- Historic Women of Mycology – Livestream – 03/21/2024 06:30 PM

A request for you… Please share this with others. Have them subscribe. The only thing we get out of all of the work we do, Bob in particular, is the feedback and thanks we get from you and the satisfaction of getting the word out that science has something for all of us. Thanks for reading and all of the support you give in feedback and suggestions. Keep them coming!
Have a great week learning new cool things and enjoying old familiar things in a new way with new friends.
