Welcome to the ninth issue of SteemSTEM Distilled, a curation effort by the members of the @steemstem team.
SteemSTEM is a community driven project which seeks to promote well-written and informative Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics posts on Steemit. The project involves curating STEM-related posts through upvoting, resteeming, offering constructive feedback, supporting scientific contests, and other related activities.
For more details click here.
Our team scours the platform for original and quality content.After working through thousands (literally!) of STEM-related posts and upvoting more than 200 that we deemed to be worthy, we proudly present you our top 7 handpicked choices:
Monday - How Many Balls Are In The Vase At Noon? (or The Ross-Littlewood Paradox)
Tuesday - On the colorful Chemistry of Autumn
Wednesday - Protein Design: Nature's Math Origami
Thursday - Quantum Cryptography and China's Quantum Satellite : A New Era of Hack-Proof Communication
Friday - The Amateur Mycologist - The Importance Of Fungi, Part 1: Saprobic Mushrooms, Eaters Of The Dead
Saturday - If We Lived on a Sphere, Wouldn't Buildings Appear to Lean?
Sunday - EGYPTOLOGY: Magic in Ancient Egypt
For the sake of transparency we feel we need to clarify how our nomination process works; each issue is compiled by certain members of the SteemSTEM community. This week's editorial team was comprised of @ruth-girl & @trumpman. A special mention goes to @locikll for helping with the markdown coding.
The editorial team chooses their favorite posts for the week and each issue is the result of their joined effort. In order to keep the process fair, posts written by the editorial team are excluded from the nomination process.
Don't be discouraged if you didn't make it on this issue. The competition is harsh and there is always a next time :) In the meantime, you may wish to check these guidelines for extra tips on how your writing can be more effective.
In the same spirit of being transparent about our actions that are now supported by @curie, we will release every week a list of authors who have caught the attention of the @steemstem curation team.
If you want to discuss this with us, please do not hesitate to join the steemSTEM channel on the Steemit chat or to follow our curation trail on Streemian. If you are not on Streemian, we have a plan B through a homemade voting bot. You can contact us on the chat in order to be added to its trail.
