USGS Volcanoes🌋 auf Twitter: "Geologists measure heights of lava fountains to assess eruption dynamics. You can measure too! How? Measure angles to top & bottom of fountain; estimate distance using a map; use trig to calculate vertical distances for each angle; add together for height. https://t.co/UcM3F7Urqg https://t.co/E45FHGmq4h" / Twitter

And that kids is where you need your #math skills in real life-

Excactly how many people need to go to space to say:

… the atmosphere is so fragile from up there now I really understand those who said the atmosphere was .so fragile we need to protect it.

    Uhm, well, at least you noticed but see Shatner, other people have said so before. and it takes quite some energy to get you up there

… but it’s oxygen!!!

    Oh Shater, you know what? argh forget it.

So my question is how many of these fucktards need to go up there?

#Math - #English - #Science #learning #Book disappeared!

Hi guys,

this is something that is driving crazy my wife and my self, we are realizing that do no exist real, or physical, books where the kids can study on. Everything is completely aleatory.

Here in #Florida exists for instance some guidelines but you cannot find a book. I help my son doing his homework when I ask him the source or I need myself to verify something there is nothing, we have to rely on Wikipedia only!

It is crazy!

My nephew in Italy has her books of Italian, Geography, Math & Algebra, Geometry, History etc... I did the same back to my time. I had books to read and to study, every years!

If you do a research, for instance, in Amatson you can find thousand of workbooks and practices book but not a learning book!

Ohmy god! What is happening?

This is insane, and if we express our concern to the other parents look that we are the only ones that feel this situation so unusual...

I recently took a course at the college and I remember that all the books that I had to read were accessibile only through an online paying subscription and only for a very limited time! Absurd! I still have at my parents' home all the books I studied for my graduation, I will send those to me when we will have enough space to take them.

I do not understand when in this county the right of having learning books has been revoked!

HNF Paderborn auf Twitter: "Heute feiert Margaret Hamilton ihren 85. Geburtstag! Wir gratulieren der Mathematikerin ganz herzlich, ohne deren Software der Flug zum Mond 1969 sicherlich nicht so erfolgreich gewesen wäre. https://t.co/fuNfCh1u73 https://t.co/NqgDbwUWN6" / Twitter

Happy Birthady!
