Drawings of the moon by Galileo in 1610. How cool! Thought I’d share.

people call on the ‘science side of tumblr’ because generally scientists are eager lil nerds willing to help others

people don’t call on the history side of tumblr because all historians are - without fail - sarcastic angry assholes looking to start a fight

Cyanuric triazide or 2,4,6-triazido-1,3,5-triazine is white crystalline solid when pure and is an organic primary explosive with a detonation velocity of about 7,300 m·s-1. More than enough to remove a few fingers, so don’t even think about making it.

It is a quite interesting compound, since it only contains carbon and nitrogen, 3 carbon and 12 nitrogen in each molecule and 9 of these are in 3 azido groups. The compound is highly shock sensitive, it explodes while grind in a mortar. It has a sharp melting point a bit under 100 °C but it explodes upon heating above 200 °C giving nitrogen and elemental carbon as graphite and maybe some diamonds.

Since this compound is a highly sensitive energetic material I would recommend to do not try it out how this works. On the picture and the gif approx. 40-50 mg (0,04-0,05 g) cyanuric triazide was ignited. Even this small amount could be enough to cause serious damage, injury. 

Anyone want to read short reviews from energetic materials?

2,000 Year Old Olive Tree of Vouves

This ancient olive tree is located on the Greek island of Crete and is one of seven olive trees in the Mediterranean believed to be at least 2,000 to 3,000 years old. This tree still produces Olives and they are highly sought after.
