Welcome to c/science_memes @ Mander.xyz!

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.

If they were orbiting a star for long enough, maybe. (Long enough = thousand or millions of years) Maybe a skeleton in a small cloud ?
