When Janet Planet focuses on its sixth-grader protagonist, it's frequently stunning. When it pauses for adult talk, it slows way down.

Writing workshops will sometimes discuss an idea called the imitative fallacy. It’s a pitfall of fiction writing where the author will shape the narrative to mimic a character’s personality: making the writing style related to a bored character intentionally dull, for example, or making a story about an abrasive person equally difficult to spend time with.

Mother and daughter both have what Janet later refers to as “forthrightness” while seeming, to some extent, at a loss for how to make each other happier. In the first scene of the film, Lacy calls home, asking her mother to pick her up early from summer camp in the most dramatic terms possible . When Janet dutifully retrieves her, and Lacy realizes that at least one of her campmates considers her a friend and Wayne will be staying with them, the girl reconsiders – too late, of course.

Astronomers discover first step toward planet formationAstronomers discover first step toward planet formationAstronomers have gotten very good at spotting the signs of planet formation around stars. But for a complete understanding of planet formation, we also need to study examples where planet formation has not yet started. Looking for something and not finding it can be even more difficult than finding it sometimes, but new detailed observations of the young star DG Taurus show that it has a smooth protoplanetary disk without signs of planet formation. This successful non-detection of planet formation may indicate that DG Taurus is on the eve of planet formation.

Plants could worsen air pollution on a warming planetPlants could worsen air pollution on a warming planetNew research shows that plants such as oak and poplar trees will emit more of a compound called isoprene as global temperatures climb. Isoprene from plants represents the highest flux of hydrocarbons to the atmosphere after methane. Although isoprene isn’t inherently bad — it actually helps plants better tolerate insect pests and high temperatures — it can worsen air pollution by reacting with nitrogen oxides from automobiles and coal-fired power plants. The new publication can help us better understand, predict and potentially mitigate the effects of increased isoprene emission as the planet warms.
