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.

Rules

  1. Don't throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

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

Two possibilities exist: either we are alone in the Universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying.

Honestly I'd take the "we are alone" route, Chrysalids and Floaters from XCOM can go fuck themselves.

If we're alone then its ours to take.

If we arent then we must embrace our oldest tendency and become alone. They will either become one with mankind much like the Neanderthals or they must simply perish.
