Delightful NightLife news, delivered weekly.
Gear up for the first ever NightLifeCon! Featuring all things anime, comics, and sci-fi.
They live anywhere and everywhere there’s water, they're invisible to the naked eye, and they're essential to life on Earth: They're diatoms!
Sometimes called “floating solar panels” and “nature’s glass houses,” diatoms are likely the most under-appreciated (and strikingly beautiful) organisms responsible for the air we breathe. Take a tour through the Academy’s world-renowned diatom collection, get a closeup look at these microscopic jewels, and learn how researchers are studying phytoplankton in Antarctica through community science.
NightSchool is live on the first & third Thursdays of every month.
All NightSchool virtual programming is intended for audiences 21+.
