It's early January and my brain hurts from doing real work again. Shall we review some funny space memes instead?! The first 100 people to go to www.blinkist.c... are going to get unlimited access for 1 week to try it out. You'll also get 25% off if you want the full membership.
This seemed like a great idea at the time, now I feel like I sapped the fun out of it and ruined them all by making them educational 🤣 send me any other space memes you think I'll enjoy on social media to keep me laughing throughout the week.

👩🏽💻 I'm Dr Becky Smethurst, an astrophysicist at the University of Oxford. I love making videos about science with an unnatural level of enthusiasm. I like to focus on how we know things, not just what we know. And especially, the things we still don't know. If you've ever wondered about something in space and couldn't find an answer online - you can ask me! My day job is to do research into how supermassive black holes can affect the galaxies that they live in. In particular, I look at whether the energy output from the disk of material orbiting around a growing supermassive black hole can stop a galaxy from forming stars.
