A (fictitious) joke paper titled "Could the interstellar visitor 1I/'Oumuamua be a giant coprolite?" The abstract answers it fairly succinctly: Probably not. And that's all there is to say about that kind of story, no matter what Avi wants you to believe.
Citations for two asteroids that were newly named on 11 August 2025. One (2005 CO2) after Charles Keeling, the other (2011 EN19) after Eunice Newton Foote. The citations read: Charles David Keeling (1928-2005) was an American climatologist who developed the first reliable instrument for measuring atmospheric carbon dioxide. In 1958, at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, he began a long-term monitoring program, showing by 1961 that carbon dioxide levels were rising. This ongoing record is now known as the Keeling Curve. Eunice Newton Foote (1819-1888) was an American scientist and women’s rights advocate. In 1856, she demonstrated that carbon dioxide and water vapor absorb heat and hypothesized that changes in their atmospheric levels could alter the climate. She was the first to propose this phenomenon, now known as the greenhouse effect.
