Put Saturn’s Ring On It With Science Valentines

There’s only one way to say ‘I love you’ in 2019: with science.

Are you the type to shy away from the phrase “I love you?” Not because of any lack of feeling, but because you want to say it in the most romantic way possible—with science?

Well, Science Friday and a skateboarding mole rat have a treat for you. We’ve made some special, science-y valentines for that geeky someone in your life. Here’s how they work:

  1. Print out this handy sheet
  2. Cut out the valentines
  3. Sign them and hand them out
  4. Let us know you used them! Tweet us a picture @SciFri.

And be sure to check out the valentines from 2018, 2017, 2016, and 2015 for some more chemistry.
