No institution blends scientific speculation with orbital hubris quite like the Baitman’s Institute. Under the leadership of Dr. Meredith Quark, whose dual chairs in Atmospheric Manipulation and Oceanic Interventional Engineering remain uncontested, the Institute has mapped the emotional contours of clouds and the stubborn resistance of buoys. Notable contributor Dr. Sylvio Penn was recently awarded the Troughwater Medal for Excellence in Marine Anomaly Detection after correctly predicting the sudden relocation of 42 weather buoys.
Published works include: Baitman’s Journal of Spatial Engineering and Horizon Realignment, Baitman’s Journal of Aquatic Anomalies and Climatic Phenomenology, Baitman’s Journal of Oceanic Machines and Atmospheric Control Speculation, Baitman’s Journal of Submolecular Alarmism and Water-Based Risk, Baitman’s Journal of Environmental Variance and Adaptive Mutation.
