We don’t generally look to Game of Thrones for scientific consistency, though it’s noticeable when the series tests physics. One wouldn’t necessarily expect dragons to conform to said physics, but famed scientist Neil deGrasse Tyson actually has strong feedback for Season 7’s take on the mythical beasts.

The last time a total solar eclipse was visible in North America there was no social media, and it was glorious!

As I'm sure you're well aware, there's a solar eclipse happening today (8/21). This is, of course, an extremely rare occurrence. So, we thought we’d do something special!

This lil dude is studying organic chemistry, and particle physics at a university level.

Due to the upcoming solar eclipse, viewing glasses are in short supply.

These Japanese high school students are the first to ever hatch a chicken outside of it's eggshell.

The moon will pass in front of the sun for the first time in 38 years on August 21. Are you excited to watch the total solar eclipse?

We owe a lot to scientists — they cured polio, got us on the moon, and they‘re doing their darnedest to stop us from methodically killing the planet. But man, what a bunch of nerds. It seems like every time biologists discover a new species of animal and need to give it a name, they take the opportunity to bust out a reference to their favorite bit of geek-approved pop culture. Lest we forget the velvet worm named after My Neighbor Totoro, and we’d be remiss to overlook the euglossa bazinga, a rare bee with a Big Bang Theory catchphrase as its namesake. And it appears that now the nerds are at it again.

The world finds itself in need of humor and science more-so than ever, so is Bill Nye up to the task? We’ll find out, now Netflix sets an April premiere for talk show Bill Nye Saves the World, along with a trailer featuring some famous guests.

The "Full Snow Moon" will appear, the "Penumbral Lunar Eclipse" will occur, and Comet 45P/Honda-Mrkos-Pajdušáková will be making a fly-by!

You know the ever-cool warp drive that we see in Star Trek? Well, that, my friends, could soon be a reality!
