      A fun fact that always makes me really curious is that some plants mimic insects, or is that the insects mimic plants? It’s all part of evolution, and it is something that we do not fully understand, and that just amazes me every time I think about it.

      Black holes were first discussed back in 1783 by John Michell (calling them invisible stars). It took over 100 years, until 1916, for the maths and science to start to match the theory and an actual black hole wasn’t observed until 1971.

      Mammals have 3 tiny bones in their inner ears which help them hear well. Amphibians, reptiles, and birds only have 1 inner ear bone.

      So where did the other 2 come from?
