− | + | ===Official T-shirt explanation=== | |
+ | This comic was made into a T-shirt, but is no longer available. | ||
− | + | On the xkcd store, there was both an '''explanation for the title:''' | |
+ | <!-- Begin Quote DO NOT CORRECT This is a copy paste from xkcd with errors.--> | ||
+ | Science: We finally figured out that you could separate fact from superstition by a completely radical method: observation. You can try things, measure them, and see how they work! {{w|Bitch (insult)|Bitches}}. | ||
+ | <!-- End Quote DO NOT CORRECT --> | ||
− | + | And specifically an '''explanation for the graph:''' | |
− | + | <!-- Begin Quote DO NOT CORRECT This is a copy paste from xkcd with errors.--> | |
− | <!-- | + | The graph on the back of the shirt is data from the {{w|COBE|COBE mission}} which looked at the background microwave glow of the universe and found that it fit perfectly with the idea that the universe used to be really hot everywhere. This strongly reinforced the Big Bang theory and was one of the most dramatic examples of an experiment agreeing with a theory in history -- the data points fit perfectly, with error bars too small to draw on the graph. It's one of the most triumphant scientific results in history. |

− | * | + | *This was the 48th comic originally posted to [[LiveJournal]]. |
− | * | + | **The previous was [[50: Penny Arcade]]. |
+ | **The next was [[51: Malaria]]. | ||
+ | *This comic kept its original title: "Science" | ||
+ | **It is part of the last six comics on LiveJournal that all had a title without the word "Drawing" in it. | ||
+ | **Five of these had exactly the same title on both sites. | ||
+ | **Only 11 comics have the same title on both sites. | ||
+ | **Apart from the [[:Category:First day on LiveJournal|thirteen first comics]] posted to LiveJournal, there were only three other comics without the word "Drawing" in the title before these last six. | ||
+ | *Original [[Randall]] quote: "Bonus points if you can identify the science in question." | ||
+ | **Only difference between this and the title text on xkcd is the last period: "." | ||
+ | **It is rare that these two texts are so similar. | ||
+ | *This comic was one of the last 11 comics posted on LiveJournal. | ||
+ | **These 11 comics were [[:Category:Posted on LiveJournal after xkcd|posted both on LiveJournal and xkcd]] after the [[xkcd]] site opened on the 1st of January 2006. | ||
+ | **The first six comics were posted on both sites on the same day. But not this one. | ||
+ | *For some reason, this comic was first posted a week later on xkcd (25 January 2006), on the day that [[53: Hobby]] was released on LiveJournal. | ||
+ | **On the day 54: Science was released on LiveJournal (18 January 2006), another comic ([[51: Malaria]]) was released on xkcd. | ||
+ | **[[51: Malaria]] also became the next comic released on LiveJournal, but this meant that three comics in a row were posted a release day earlier on xkcd than on LiveJournal. | ||
+ | **Only with the last comic released on LiveJournal, [[55: Useless]], did the two sites release the same comic on the same day again. | ||
+ | * "It works, bitches" has been quoted by Richard Dawkins in 2013, when questioned on the superiority of science. It is not sure whether he was quoting xkcd, though. See https://www.theverge.com/2013/4/2/4173576/richard-dawkins-on-science-it-works-bitches | ||
