Anyone who knows me will be aware of my love of SciFi (not “syfy” bleurgh). Two of my favourites being Star Trek and Doctor Who. 

Both have been “around” since the early sixties and I thought it interesting to see where one had trodden on the feet of the other.

Someone write and remind the Doctor Who Tumblr that Mickey Smith and Martha Jones got married in the series.

“If A and C are each in thermal equilibrium with B, A is also in equilibrium with C.”

Which Law of Thermodynamics is this?

…but more importantly, why is it called that?

This picture is just too cute for words.

What a philosopher likes: Fat man and the railroad - cracking an age old ethics thought experiment

philosopherlikes:

There is a philosophical thought experiment, retold in many ethics classes, that goes like this:

You are sitting on a bridge above a railroad. A fat man sits next to you. You notice that 5 people are tied to the railroad track just a few hundred feet from where you are, and a train is headed…

Yesterday I posted an idea about the Doctor Who 50th Anniversary.

it went like this…

Moffat has penned a Doctor Who 50th anniversary special where all his classic past selves are captured by the Zygons.

Breaking the highest Gallifreyian law, he enlists the help of his previous incarnation (The Tenth Doctor) and his favourite, feisty companion Rose Tyler.

As I lay in bed this morning, the idea became a little more fully formed in my head. The lead up to the bit above now goes like this.
