Welcome to Steemit @panda.bear I found you from @amariespeaks featuring you in her Minnow Mondays post. I see a few have already mentioned some things, since no one else mentioned @steemstem, to you I will. They are the science people of steemit. "Community Project to Promote Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics Postings on Steemit" And no they are not all stuffed shirts and old guys, One of the smartest people is @suesa and she is only 21, and has a great sense of humor, and she loves to write also, you should read a few of her short stories. So don't let anyone tell you that you are reaching to high, you go and keep that interest in science. When you feel a little down about it all, I am sure you will find a story of hers to help, and she always includes links to the science that she mentions in her stories.

Once again, welcome to steemit.
