*"March Full Moons 2018: When to See the 'Worm Moon' and a (Blue) 'Sap
Moon.' The month of March opens and closes with a full moon this year, making
this the second "Blue Moon" month in 2018.
The moon becomes full on Thursday, March 1, at 7:51 p.m. EST (0051 GMT) and
again on Saturday, March 31, at 8:37 a.m. EDT (1237 GMT). The first Blue Moon
of 2018 was the spectacular Super Blue Blood Moon of Jan. 31."

*"Poop Stains Lead Researchers to Hidden 'Supercolony' of 1.5 Million Penguins.
Explorers beware: The Danger Islands — a remote handful of rocks huddled
among sheets of treacherous sea ice near the northern tip of the Antarctic
Peninsula — are full of penguins.
One might not imagine penguins to be dangerous, per se, but then again one has
probably never seen (or smelled) 1.5 million of them breeding at once. According
to a new paper published today (March 2) in the journal Scientific Reports, that's
about how many Adélie penguins were recently found nesting in a previously
unknown "supercolony" on the seldom-studied Danger Islands."

Ol Pejeta Conservancy, the wildlife sanctuary in Kenya where the last three
northern white rhinoceroses on the planet live."

*"Floating 'Brain' Will Assist Astronauts Aboard the Space Station. The crew on
board the International Space Station (ISS) will soon welcome a new member —
one that is 3D-printed from metal and plastic and is described by its creators as
"a kind of flying brain."
It goes by the name CIMON, short for "Crew Interactive Mobile Companion."
Built by the aerospace design company Airbus in collaboration with IBM, CIMON
houses artificial intelligence (AI) in an autonomous, spherical body that would
"float" in the space station's microgravity environment, with a screen that can
display data readouts for astronauts — or present an image of a friendly face —
as well as a voice shaped by IBM's AI technology.
The robot is tasked with supporting the ISS astronauts as a type of assistant, and
free-flying CIMON would be the first AI-based mission on the ISS, Airbus
representatives said in a statement. [From Reactive Robots to Sentient Machines:
The 4 Types of AI]."

"A stunning video from space shows a winter storm – also known as a "bomb
cyclone" – slamming into the northeast United States today (March 2). Flooding
and sheets of snow and rain accompanied the storm, along with strong waves
along the coasts."
The images from the GOES (Geostationary Operational Environmental

*"Stephen Hawking Says He Knows What Happened Before the Big Bang.
Stephen Hawking has an answer, which he gave in an interview with his
almost-as-famous fellow scientist, Neil deGrasse Tyson. Hawking discusses these
ideas and others on the series finale of Tyson's "StarTalk" TV show, which airs
this Sunday (March 4) at 11 p.m. ET on the National Geographic Channel.
Hawking's answer to the question "What was there before there was anything?"
relies on a theory known as the "no-boundary proposal.""
