A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
Silly question but what would it look like if you cut the tree? Would it have so many rings that it's essentially a solid color? Do trees stop growing rings at a certain point?
This type of spruce produces needles instead of rings. So there are 9,000+ needles on the tree, and they add on a hundred or so years to account for people picking them off in passing.
Only 1000 more till it reaches cactaur status!
