Cats have an extraordinary survival skill known as the “righting reflex” that allows them to twist midair and land on their feet, even when dropped upside down. This uncanny ability is made possible by their flexible spine, lack of a functional collarbone, and a combination of biological sensors and physical laws governing motion. Astonishingly, kittens develop this reflex as early as three weeks old, mastering the art of graceful landing that defies everyday expectations. This article unravels the science and mystery behind this feline feat.

Henrietta Lacks was died in 1951. The tumor that killed her has been alive and growing to this day. The tumor is immortal and was used to progress the Polio vaccine and is the jumping point for most human cell research to this day. Scientists have grown some 20 tons of her cells.

Due to the steep mountains that surround it, the town of Rjukan, Norway, doesn't receive any natural sunlight from September to March. They placed large mirrors in the town square to reflect light. The mirror follows the path of the sun and moves every 10 seconds to create a 600m squared light pool.

Over 1,800 years ago, long before modern technology, the ancient Chinese astronomer and inventor Zhang Heng created the world’s first seismograph in 132 AD. This ingenious bronze device could detect distant earthquakes by releasing small balls from dragons’ mouths into toads’ mouths—each indicating a different compass direction. Its historic detection of an earthquake 400 miles away astonished the imperial court and transformed the way societies understood and responded to seismic events.
