Term used by Irish college/uni students. Like the Golden week (where one goes to every class in a week on time) except every night throughout the week one goes out on the piss, and making it into class the next morning.

The safeguarding of Earth and other worlds from biological cross-contamination (i.e. billionaires with too much time on their hands).

Also known as “planetary protection.” Planetary protection / quarantine “reflects both the unknown nature of the space environment and the desire of the scientific community to preserve the pristine nature of celestial bodies until they can be studied in detail.”

There are two types of interplanetary contamination. Forward contamination is the transfer of viable organisms from Earth to another celestial body. Back contamination is the transfer of extraterrestrial organisms, if such exist, back to the Earth's biosphere.

A term used by students in Ireland. Refers to a week where one goes to college every day for a week, staying in college for the duration of each day, but attends no lectures or other academic activities. Seen by less ambitious students as an achievement greater than that of completing a golden week.
