Originally, Church started ‘Bad Science Jokes’ over a decade agoon Tumblr. “Since then, it branched off to every corner of the web. Bad Science Jokes, these days, is mainlyon Instagramwith 800k followers looking for the latest in bad science humor! I think science and educational memes resonate with so many people because so many people can relate,” she told Bored Panda in an email.“The humor doesn’t need to be at a PhD level. Bite-sized one-liners can help people learn and laugh at the same time! A great science meme is just that, something everyone can smile at,” she said.

We were curious to get Church’s thoughts on what could make science more appealing to students, as well as what anyone hoping to switch careers to something more STEM-related might want to consider.

“I appreciate the push the last couple of decades have done to try to increase STEM awareness. I think the main thing society itself needs to do is show STEM fields are a cool, interesting, needed career path. Having more people see scientists in the real world being just as cool as the latest trend is what’s going to bring people to more highly consider STEM fields,” Church told Bored Panda.

“I think middle and high schools should push more experiments in lessons—I know that’s asking a lot—but from what I hear that is something that helped push tons of children to pursue STEM careers. The excitement of lab day in school!” she said.

Something that recently captured our imaginations was the successful launch of theEuropa Clipper mission. The spacecraft, which is meant to conduct a detailed study of Jupiter’s moon Europa, will spend nearly 6 years traveling 1.8 billion miles across our solar system to its destination.

The reason why the Europa Clipper won’t be orbiting Europa is because of the intense radiation zone around the moon, which would fry the nine sensitive science instruments housed within the spacecraft.

NASA writes: “There is strong evidence Jupiter’s moon Europa has a saltwater ocean that may be one of the best places to look for environments where life could exist beyond Earth.”

It’s tough to find the time and energy to be curious about the scientific world if you’ve got a full-time job, have kids, are studying for a degree, or have any number of other important responsibilities.

Taking even a few minutes to exercise, study something new, or work on that creative project of yours (the one you keep procrastinating on) is worth the effort. All of that minusculeincremental progressquickly adds up!
