For this (100 - 1)th issue of the SteemSTEM Distilled series, we are a bit late. However, better late than never, especially for this episode that is the last one before we enter the three-digit era. So... without keeping you in suspense, welcome to this new episode of our curation effort!
As usual, before moving to the main dish, let us advertise the SteemSTEM discord server where most our active members are available to chat with anyone on a daily basis.

We present in this distilled our top two handpicked post choices for the last week (from a couple of hundreds of STEM-related posts on Steem). As usual, our selection committee consisted in a one-man team made of @lemouth. In order words, please consider writing about physics to see your chances to get featured higher... or not ;)
Some statistics are given at the end of this post.
Please do not be discouraged if you did not make it on this issue. The chances to be picked are low. In the meantime, you may wish to check these guidelines for extra tips on how your writing could be more effective (or ask for a mentor on Discord).
Our top choices

Have you ever wanted to have fun with urchins? If yes but if you do not know how, @tking77798 proposes a fun activity with a bunch of urchins. In his post, he explains how one can get urchin’s sperm and eggs and then produce a potentially fertilized egg. Tip: he also give hints on how to get fresh urchins...
