@wampastompa & @kookoo grew B2-1 in a lab! 🦠🧪🧑‍🔬 Each "pixel" in this image is actually a bunch of bacteria cells designed by scientists to glow a specific color. The entire process went something like: 1.) Wampa designed a pixel art of B2-1 2.) The team at @ginkgobioworks determined which of the 11 available colored strains of fluorescent E. coli to use for each "pixel" 3.) Bacteria cultures were precisely, automatically deposited onto a specialized tray containing a growth medium with all the nutrients the bacteria needs to divide (ie. grow!) 4.) After allowing the bacteria to grow at a precise temperature for about a day, the "fluorescent bacterial artwork" was ready to be photographed! FUN FACT: The specific strain of E. coli used to grow this artwork is called "BL21," which is almost the same as "B2-1." What a fun coincidence!

welcome back, Glitter Monster! 🌎🚀🌑 Glitter Monster took part in the Artemis II mission and launched aboard the SLS rocket -- nestled inside Lucas's awesome zero-gravity indicator (ZGI), "Rise" -- from Florida's Kennedy Space Center. after an exciting ~10-day mission involving looping around the "fricking moon," naming craters after loved ones, photography of the far side of the moon, and maybe even Microsoft-related technical issues, GM is back safely on Earth! thanks to @nasaartemis for the opportunity to give a @kookoo pal a ride on one of the greatest human endeavors of our lifetimes ❤️💙

Happy Halloween from Bryan and Neil! What are you dressing up as? Do you like the blue vanilla tootsie roll candies as much as Bryan? Will you give Neil a king size hundred grand if he is a good boy? We have a Halloween song called “Monster Moves” and National Day radio will be spinning it all day. So tune in. @natdaycal Art by @wampastompa
