Last night was President Obama’s eighth and final State of the Union address. While the usual chat of nationhood and foreign policy set the tone for the annual speech, Obama made several arresting and exciting references to science.

The speech addressed the United States' advances in science and technology over the past year, along with teasing a handful of new initiatives to support the spirit of science, technology, and the environment.
