Welcome to the eleventh 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 - What Will Earth Become? [A View Through the Looking Glass]

Tuesday - Why It Is Impossible To Fly An Aeroplane Right Into Space. (Aerodynamics Busted)

Wednesday - Deriving Energy Levels of the Hydrogen Atom (Atomic Physics Video Series – Part 4)

Thursday - How Cells Use Logic To Do The Impossible

Friday - How every life on earth is powered by the sun

Saturday - Ikaria; an Island Where People Forget To Die

Sunday - Our relationship with gravity (Part 3)- The Knees

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.
From November 18 to November 25, we rewarded 84 different authors who have written a total of 129 different articles. The authors who received both a @steemstem and a @curie vote that week are:

Nice articles. I would love to live at Ikaria. Reaching the 90 years point is quite an achievement. I am jealous of the inhabitants
Thanks for the comment. I personally don't like to think about what to do when I will be 90+. I have too many years in front of me, and I am not to sure I Will be able to get there :p
You can get there,just keep on keeping on :)
Well, regarding how crazily I live, ai am not so sure. But we will see ^^

They have made me very happy with your support
I send you a warm greeting from Maracaibo - VenezuelaThank you @steemstem for supporting my natural science project
We enjoyed a lot reading about it. Thank you for writing about it! :)
I'm honored to be a part of such a great community. Everyone I've met in the chat, and within the tag are very passionate about STEM subjects.
That passion and kindness among one another has made SteemSTEM one of the best communities I've ever been a part of.
Thank you very much for the support @steemstem!
It was also a great pleasure to us to read your posts and to chat with you (okay I didn't myself chat with you yet, but I noticed your activity on the chat :p) !
The community is also built through its members! So thank you too!
excellent post I follow you, if you want you can follow me
Technically speaking the steemstem account follows everyone who is posting in the STEM-related categories. Therefore, there is no need to follow individuals :)
I am inspired by the great minds in this growing community. I'm glad to be part of something that can produce great contact. I wish I had more time to read what people in the steemstem community are weighting about but traveling makes finding wifi a fleeting luxury. I'm thankful for these distilled article because I can find great content quickly and easily with the limited time I have. I hope the community enjoyes my article I just posted on natural medicines and fighting jungle infections. Please comment if your also interested in Natural medicines. I'm looking for more minds to communicate with in this topic.
