There’s something oddly comforting about the fact that, while we’re up here arguing about pumpkin spice versus peppermint mocha, ocean scientists have just discovered dozens of new species hanging out at the bottom of the Southern Ocean including, a carnivorous “death ball” sponge. Yes, you read that right. […]
People love a good mystery especially one that involves vanishing ships, spooky fog, and compasses losing their moral and magnetic direction. The Bermuda Triangle usually hogs the spotlight, but little do most know there’s a Midwestern cousin lurking quietly up north: the Lake Michigan Triangle. Or as I […]
Apparently, according to some clever neuroscientists (the kind who spend their days scanning brains instead of doom-scrolling LinkedIn), we humans average about 6,200 thoughts a day. That’s 6,200 neural costume changes. One minute you’re thinking about breakfast, the next about that email you forgot to send, and suddenly […]
So apparently, there’s a 4% chance an asteroid could smack into the Moon in 2032. NASA scientists are already brainstorming ways to save us from a lunar mess. Like “kinetic disruption missions” involving nuclear explosives to blow it apart. Basically, high-stakes cosmic pest control. But honestly? I think […]
Sometimes, science is serious. Penicillin. MRI machines. Vaccines. And then sometimes science is cows dressed up as zebras. Yes, a team of researchers in Japan actually painted cows with zebra-like stripes. Why? To see if it would cut down on pesky fly bites. Turns out, it worked. The […]
So apparently, scientists found a Martian sample that may contain evidence of ancient microbial life. The headlines sound grand: “Life on Mars!” But then you squint at the fine print. No, it’s not exactly proof of life, more like a faint fossilized whisper of something microbial that once […]
Just when you think 2025 can’t get any weirder, China goes and discovers a new species: a short-legged toad with a head so disproportionately large it could headline its own cartoon franchise. Scientists describe the head as “enormous, extremely wide and flat, about 1.5 times as broad as […]
Let’s talk about Skynet. You know, that fictional AI from Terminator that sent shivers down the spines of tech lovers and conspiracy theorists alike. Every time I see some new innovation—like DeepSeek or whatever magic AI trick is next—there’s a small part of my brain that goes: “Is […]
It’s a typical Monday morning. I’m sipping my coffee, trying to summon the energy to tackle the day, when my phone pings. “Rain will stop in the next hour.” Oh, really? My weather app seems to be convinced it has a direct line to Mother Nature’s whims. Spoiler […]
Starship, a powerful rocket was launch-tested by Elon Musk’s Space X team. The goal is for these rockets to take us to Mars and beyond one day. Albeit, still historic, Starship did experience what is being referred to as a rapid unscheduled disassembly. The phrase describing the explosion […]
