50 Of The Cleverest Science Memes That Perfectly Blend Humor With Knowledge
Many of you sitting behind your screens have long forgotten what it's like to fall asleep in a science class only to be awakened by a teacher asking you to explain a principle of Newtonian mechanics in front of the whole class.
The truth is, not many of us have given physics, chemistry, or cosmology a chance to actually learn to like them. Equally few have the brain, willpower, or patience to have done so. Luckily, there are no science tests anymore and we can finally sit back, relax and enjoy the most entertaining part of it.
The Facebook group titled “The Lighter Side Of Science” is a perfect source of it, sharing anything “from bizarre science discoveries and experiments to weird and unusual creatures, scientific studies, theories and much more.”
Boasting 691.3K members, the community is growing strong as it joins people who share the fascination with science into one bunch of a family. Scroll down for the most interesting posts shared on the group!

As someone who works at a safety inspection, I talk to the driver/owner of the car UNLESS: Driver has a passenger. I switch eye contact back and forth. Wife/spouse partner seems jealous of uneasy of me (I'm female) I then speak directly to her. I'm not about to cause a hour long fight after they leave. Driver tells me they want me to speak to their mechanic who is present, I then STILL alternate eye contact, use different lingo, to the mechanic they will get the tech talk, to the driver they will get the basic English version because they need to know what I've explained to the mechanic so they can hold them accountable if I can tell said mechanic isn't kosher. Driver cannot hear me, I will then explain to their more audible passenger and continue to alternate eye contact. I'm genuinely kind when people are rude, because it says a lot more about me than it does them, and my reputation and name are something I worked hard for. Never assume, always listen to your gut and be kind.

I used to work at a lighting, fans, lamp and shade shop where we also did repairs. My boss, a beautiful, young woman was approached by a male customer with a broken fan motor. It was a simple fix and she proceeded to work on it. The man squirmed around for a minute, then asked if there wasn't a man around who could fix it. She stopped and told the customer he could certainly have a man fix it-- but it wouldn't be ready for 2 weeks. She had it fixed in 10 min.😂😂😂

What separates a prejudice or an assumption from a scientific fact is the hard evidence. Scientific evidence is evidence that serves to either support or counter a scientific theory or hypothesis, although scientists also use evidence in other ways, such as when applying theories to practical problems.
Scientific evidence is information gathered from scientific research, which takes a lot of time (and patience!) to conduct. But there are a few things that all this research needs to have in common to make it possible for decision-makers, and ultimately all of us, to accept it as “evidence”.There are some criteria we want scientific evidence to fit into. First, it has to be objective and unbiased, which may be a hard thing to do keeping in mind that the majority of researchers constantly apply for funds.

It's beautifully apt. Not only for the obvious reasons, but because they were originally domesticated by the indigenous people of South America and are particularly kept for a food source (sorry!) by indigenous people of the Andes. The potato was also originally domesticated in Peru and Bolivia, partly because it was a great carb that could be grown and processed at high altitudes. The meat that is most appropriate to go with the potato is therefore guinea pig! /sorry i'll stop nerding now lol

According to Manu Saunders, a researcher and PhD candidate from Charles Sturt University, mostly, funds are distributed fairly. “But if an organization funds a research project that will benefit them financially, then we cannot accept the findings as 'evidence' unless different researchers (from unrelated organizations) come to the same conclusions through their own independent research.”
Moreover, since scientific evidence relies on data, it’s vital for researchers to ensure that the data they collect is representative of the “true” situation. Saunders argues that it means researchers have to use proven or appropriate ways of collecting and analyzing the data and ensuring the research is conducted ethically and safely.

Which is heavier, a pound of feathers or a pound of gold? Correct answer: a pound of feathers. Why? Gold is measured in Troy ounces, where 14.583 make one pound. Feathers are measured in Avoirdupois, where 16 ounces make a pound. 16 ounces weigh more than 14.583 ounces, so one pound of feathers is heavier.

The seeds are useless. Apple's are not "true to seed," they're like people, it's baby is not a clone it's babies are unique. Most seeds produce crab apples since those are the dominant genes. So the seeds of these will never produce the same apples. If you want the same apples you have to graft them, which is basically cloning.

Peer review and professional consensus is the most crucial step since it turns research into the “evidence” that we all talk about and rely on. “The researcher has to present their data, results and conclusions in the form of a scientific report or paper. This must be reviewed by their scientific peers – only they are qualified to assess the validity of the methods and the accuracy of the conclusions the researcher has drawn from the results,” Saunders explains.

It’s also very important to note that most scientific facts reach us though media and press, politics and opinion makers. Oftentimes, we don’t have the opportunity, time nor want to spend effort checking facts for ourselves.
Saunders argues that it’s a good idea to check if “scientific evidence” backs up its case by asking a couple of questions: “Who funded the research and why? How much evidence is there and how was it gathered? Was the sample size or location representative of the 'real' situation?”

What's worse is when news organizations and pundits want to give equal claim credibility between your research (which 99% of people in your field agree with) and the claims of one other guy who happens to be funded by businesses that are causing the problem. Lawmakers use that sole voice to stall/prevent legislation to prevent or rectify any possible solutions. Saw this with climate change, tobacco, and vaccines. About half the general public believe the sole voice guy because his theory is presented in a way that is basic and easy to understand, they are afraid of the cost/ results, and/or they want to feel smart and superior to everyone else but don't understand the effort and work to achieve that is greater than watching a few hours worth of videos, making a nonsensical argument, and having a of their social media followers/ friends/ family agree with them.

Yeah i know sounds strang but the trick is to read book that you can really enjoy and get into. I highly recommend that all parents of children with dislexia help there child explore fictional books until they find that great type they love. Once they get into it they will even stay up late rwading i know I did. I like video games as well and i had them but I would get so into the books I would go without playing them for sometimes a week or more. Now i can read upside down, backwards, upside down mirrored whatever you can toss at me. As long as I know the word as long as the first and last letter of the word are in the correct place the rest of the letters can be put whever you want I can still read it.

Some humans have better night vision than normal. I am one of those. It sucks to be out in the day and really bright lights can cause massive eye strain leading to headaches and bruses under the eyes like you have not barely slept for a week. I litteraly recoil from bright lights and if I close one eye it helps reduce the light stress. Benefit is that when you would be unable to see at all if there is at least a little light i can still see clouds and can roughly make out objects due to them haveing a reflection. Not much detail but it works. Sadly light exposure to those like us make our vision degrade horribly. When I was a child I had 20/20 vision. Now I have horrible distance vision like probably around 20/120 and 20/180. Can not see road signs until they are usually right up on me without glasses. So yes humans natrually have evolved some of us to watch over the others while they slept. Study of history shows that all cities and towns had to have night guard proffession. We evolve

Being indoors and looking closeup at things like books or screens, actually cause some eye problems. Corrective lenses prescriptions went up during Covid because people stayed home and stared at screens or books. Obviously it's not wrong to read, but it's recommended to get outside, especially for kids to reduce and prevent eye problems. So if you had been a hunter or a farmer, your eyesight would probably have been much better than it is now. https://www.canr.msu.edu/news/the_benefit_of_daylight_for_our_eyesight

I can back this up. Many optometrists recommend making kids go outside and look at things far away to help protect their eyesight. Great reason to take up cloud watching as a family activity

German engagement ring from the 16th century; It was designed to turn into small astronomical map with a sentence: "The whole universe is in your hands."
April Caron 3 years ago (edited)
It’s not an engagement ring, though. It’s an astronomy tool. It’s an armillary sphere. And it’s a replica that is quite widely available for sale. There are some in museums, from as far back as the 16th century, but most have biblical Latin phrases written on them. They were a status symbol, worn by men to indicate how knowledgeable they were. But you CAN buy one. Either a less expensive sterling silver model or an expensive solid gold model. Just search for “armillary sphere rings.”

If it's a ring shape, then it absolutely can be an engagement ring. Might not always be its primary function, but considering the engraving it's most likely this one actually was an engagement ring

That degree can be a good start to another career and even getting an associate's degree in an area that interests you and look into grants and funding through employers because there are a lot of hidden resources out there that people don't know about. And if you have any interest in health care, they are looking for people and are desperate and may pay for your schooling because they need people so badly! Hospitals are working with universities to fund students in healthcare programs because they are so desperate for employees and you can make good money depending on the field you choose. I'm a former nurse and mental health professional but I didn't work clinical and I went out on disability in 95 making $15 an hour and that was a decent wage then for being hands on, in the field, which is what I wanted. It's not where you the most money but I didn't care about money, I care about people.

Water is not massless. If you put water in a glass or tube it is not flat it slightly is raised around the edges of the cup or tube. So the insect is utilizing surface tension that allows it to be pushed up instead of sinking. If it moves too rashly it will start sinking. If you actually look at the wasps feet the surface is slightly depressed. Humans do this when we float on water but we are too heavy to sustain it without a lot of training. Also this is why people die when jumping off bridges in to water. The surface tension will act as a solid surface for just a few seconds this is why it hurts to jump into water from a high position. So yeah you shatter like a glass if the hight is too much. When spacecraft do a re entry they would land it in the ocean. If not for the parachutes to slow them down they would just get demolished when hitting the water.

Then steaming the baskets. Then getting in the baskets. Then falling out. Then trying to capture eachother with the baskets & the whole time she's retrieving them & trying to get her work done.. the entire video is like 30 minutes long & in the end she gets nothing done. In fact the place looks 20x messier & the pandas have now stolen all her supplies & materials to clean up with. So basically..... she did negative amounts of work. She unworked.

I took a geometry class in college, and the first task was to prove a straight line without using measuring instruments. There were two acceptable answers: a bug walking with even steps or putting two pieces of wood together with no gaps. Well, what if the bug was drunk or if the two pieces of wood had matching curved parts?

The newspaper industry in the united states alone requires 1000 football fields worth of trees every week for the sunday edition alone. Imagine how many trees we could save if we had a device, something that could be handheld that you could view the news on it without the need for paper. Could even make it a phone as well.

Instead of chopping down trees and using them for lumber or paper or whatever.. why not grow hemp it grows 10 times faster than trees and can be used for virtually anything paper, clothes, ropes.. you can build houses out of it I mean utilizing hemp could stop deforestization but big lumber will never allow it..

One of the oak trees in my yard has been hit by lightning at least three times. It's mostly bare trunk devoid of bark and it's truncated to half its normal size. It's a shadow of its former majesty. However, every year, its one remaining branch buds new leaves and grows acorns, so I refuse to have it cut down.

When I was a kid, my Dad showed me a similar phenomenon about how hard it is to twiddle your thumbs the opposite direction. In the forty-odd years since then, not one single person I've shown it to has been able to do it at all when I first ask them to try it, but most can manage it after about ten minutes of practice once I show them how.

Actually if you draw the six backwards starting from the bottom of it your foot goes clockwise still but if you start at the top of the number six your foot reverses to counterclockwise

I got it right! There's this rub-your-stomach-pat-your-head thing where you put your hands in front of you and one of them makes a circle that goes down AWAY from your body and the other simultaneously makes a circle that goes down TOWARD your body and you keep going. I got really good at it by making them meet up at the top and bottom. So I used that technique with the above exercise and it worked! Just takes some practice I guess lol

There's a debate about the correct pluralization of octopus. Octopodes, which is one of the options, is pronounced oct-ah-puh-dees. So if someone tries to correct you and tell you it's octopodes and not octopi or octopuses, you can respond octopodes nuts (like deez nuts). And according to dictionary.com: Deez nuts is an expression used to deliberately interrupt or divert a conversation. It is not a literal reference to testicles; rather it is used figuratively to disrupt and show disrespect to whatever discussion is currently occurring.

Fyi, we evolved in small bands of humans averaging around 50. We worked, slept and played together 24/7. "It takes a village to raise a child" we evolved to be together, share the work, the pain and the joys. Our weird solitary lifestyles aren't healthy for us. As COVID as proven to everyone, humans need other humans. We are social creatures and a multi generational home was the norm up until the 1950s and the birth of the atomic family. Also the choice to live with your parents can be a wise and financially sound plan, as well as a loving one, caring for their aging parents. I was able to buy my own house because I lived with my parents. People who live with their parents are aware of how you and society sees them, and because of society's warped ideas, it pressures people to move out even when they are not financially ready.

A young sea lion was reported on the side of the road in central California. The Highway Patrol was called and after arriving on the scene, the sea lion climbed onto the hood of the CHP vehicle and chilled out until Fish and Game got an appropriate vehicle to transport the wayward sea lion back to the bay. It was assumed that the sea lion was feeding and kept swimming up the various sloughs. They named him "CHIPS".
