The car is efficient enough for it to do something (20-30 miles a day in summer if I remember), but yes it’s mostly marketing and they say as much. “Solar electric car” sounds a lot better than “this car is pretty normal but it’s super efficient”

You know, sometimes I forget there are in fact forces in space. For some reason I was thinking about it like a small explosion of dust in atmosphere, but obviously all sorts of things can affect a massive nebula that spans light years. I think it was the fact that they look so blobby and constrained even when they aren’t really

I should know this given I’m a huge space nerd, I think I desperately need more sleep lol

I have a question and wondering if anyone can answer: why are nebulas not round or more spherical? If there isn’t anything to push the gasses around, why done they expand into a rough sphere shape?

Large online communities like this gathering is one of my favorite things about the Internet
