This joke needs a good ending, but I can't think of one: "A coronavirus walks into a bar…” ...or shall we all wash our hands of such humor? — PolitiTweet.org

@GYardbird76 @OSIRISREx While coming out of Ice Ages, its takes thousands of years for Earth’s temperature to warm. We see that same level of warming in the last 100 years - the era of fossil fuels. — PolitiTweet.org

@ThomasWNorman @OSIRISREx A good and important question. 1) The Pentagon always prepares for worst-case scenarios. 2) News tends to gravitate towards singular research results without the patience to wait for experimental or observational verification.

@ThomasWNorman @OSIRISREx Thanks for sharing your concerns. I will just point out that appealing to authority is entirely different from appealing to data. Hence the carefully selected phrase “Research shows…” in the Tweet. — PolitiTweet.org

SCIENTISTS: “@OSiRISRex intercepted asteroid Bennu, 300-million km away, to retrieve samples for lab analysis. RESPONSE: “Oooh!” SCIENTISTS: “Research shows humans are catastrophically warming Earth” RESPONSE: “That conflicts with what I want to be true, so it must be false.” — PolitiTweet.org

@x1yeons Rumor has it that Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin agreed to fake the Moon landinig. But to make the footage look as authentic as possible, they urged NASA to film it on-location. And NASA agreed. — PolitiTweet.org

@MrsAllyMich Nope. Actually, we do have plans, but none of them are funded. — PolitiTweet.org

Asteroid 2018VP1, a refrigerator-sized space-rock, is hurtling towards us at more than 40,000 km/hr. It may buzz-cut Earth on Nov 2, the day before the Presidential Election. It’s not big enough to cause harm. So if the World ends in 2020, it won’t be the fault of the Universe. https://t.co/eiy9G9w4Ez — PolitiTweet.org

The urge to impart meaning on random events in our lives runs deep. But just once, in response to the stock market dropping, say, 300 points in a day, I want to hear a Wall Street analyst say, “We have no idea why”. https://t.co/qy499YQ9s6 — PolitiTweet.org

This week, Mars & Earth are as close to each other as we’ve seen in 20 years. Have a look — with its tipped axis and a cute little icecap. And, I double-checked, no canals.
