The Ig Nobel is incredible , one year an Indian guy won it for calculating the average surface area of an elephant and during his acceptance they had an elephant hold up a sign with the surface area of the scientist on it, they do showbiz better than the Oscars
Video: a Japanese scientist was attacked by flies while giving the acceptance speech for his Ig Nobel Prize-winning research paper that proved painting Zebra-like stripes on cows led to a decrease in biting fly attacks.

Best glory I’ve ever seen from a plane! It’s an optical phenomenon that occurs when light interacts in and around tiny droplets of water in the clouds, in the direction opposite the sun.

Holiday book! Service Model is basically Post-Societal collapse Candide starring Kryten from Red Dwarf, desperately trying to find someone to make a cup of tea for. I love Tchaikovsky, and was especially delighted to see him write his in his comic register for a whole novel.
