Alliterative/Endless Knot<p>Happy <a href="https://toot.community/tags/PlutoDay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PlutoDay</span></a>! It may (or may not?) be a planet any more, but the story of Pluto, and of its namesake deity, is still fascinating. We talked about it in one of our first podcast episodes: <a href="http://www.alliterative.net/podcast/2015/7/31/episode-3-from-plato-to-pluto" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">http://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">alliterative.net/podcast/2015/</span><span class="invisible">7/31/episode-3-from-plato-to-pluto</span></a></p>
Dan Falk<p>Happy <a href="https://sciencemastodon.com/tags/plutoday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>plutoday</span></a>! The former planet was discovered <a href="https://sciencemastodon.com/tags/OTD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OTD</span></a> by astronomer Clyde Tombaugh in 1930. It lost its planetary status in 2006. A while back, I reviewed the kerfuffle over <a href="https://sciencemastodon.com/tags/Pluto" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Pluto</span></a> -- a debate that never seems to go away -- for NBC News: <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/mach/science/pluto-planet-or-dwarf-planet-nasa-chief-picks-sides-emotional-ncna1047806" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">nbcnews.com/mach/science/pluto</span><span class="invisible">-planet-or-dwarf-planet-nasa-chief-picks-sides-emotional-ncna1047806</span></a> <a href="https://sciencemastodon.com/tags/astronomy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>astronomy</span></a> <span class="h-card"><a href="https://newsie.social/@nbcnews" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>nbcnews</span></a></span></p>
Rich Miles<p>On National Drink Wine Day, let's raise a glass to the power of innovation and the mysteries of the universe! Did you know the voltaic pile, the first battery, used wine goblets to create an electrical current? Coincidentally, it's also National Battery Day, so let's pour one out for Pluto, the former planet that still captures our imaginations and inspires us to explore the far reaches of the solar system. 🍷🔋🪐 <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/NationalDrinkWineDay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NationalDrinkWineDay</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/NationalBatteryDay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NationalBatteryDay</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/PlutoDay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PlutoDay</span></a></p>
