If you thought the story of Frankenstein was intense, wait until you hear about the life of its author.

Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley’s personal life was fraught with death, life, and a summer of volcanic ash.

Buckle up. 🧵⬇️

Happy Halloween! ✨ 👻 🎃 Jack-o’-lanterns aren’t the only signs of life that glow in the dark. Some organisms on Earth do, too. Would a distant planet full of glow-in-the-dark aliens be detectable to our telescopes? 🔭

Short break, not a stop. Recharging. Coming back sharper.

The blue whale loses 770-1900 calories every time it lunges to get a bite of krill.

Luckily, with a successful lunge, it can get almost 500,000 calories in one mouthful.

Of course the biggest animal to ever live knows how to maximize gains.

The entire month of September 2025 on the Sun! The month saw some strong coronal hole and geomagnetic storm action, but lacked significant solar flare activity. #spaceweather #astronomy

If you ride the entirety of the Trans-Siberian railway in Russia, you will cross through 8 time zones.

For an optimal experience, we recommend the Trans-Siberian Orchestra for background music.

You may have to listen to the playlist a few times.

Everyone who loves migrating birds, join us in thanking THE PITUITARY GLAND!

As the days get shorter, a bird’s pituitary gland responds by secreting hormones that affect metabolic processes, such as the accumulation of fat, which provides the necessary energy for migration.

The difference between utility and meaning is arrangement. A pile of objects is just stuff; arranged with intention, they evoke response and create experience. That’s where interior design becomes art.

Progress is dialectical: we grow by the tension between encouragement and resistance, not by one alone. One fills the sails, the other builds the ship.
