Absolutely no one expected it to happen. They had painstakingly planned it so it absolutely wouldn’t-couldn’t happen. But here they were, less than five hundred feet […]
Post a comment asking me to choose between two! In the comments, write something like, dinner with mom or dad? Or, Chick-Fil-A or Wendy’s? (Last time I forgot that Whataburger was only in Texas.) This time, you can choose between two on other people’s comments as well so they can get to know you better! […]
This is a continuation of the strange U.S. laws series. You can read the first one here. The ones listed below are even crazier than the previous post. Many of these unusual laws were created because a person was so wild that they had to make it illegal in their state. In California, you can’t […]

BAM! Suddenly, the master alarm in the lunar module (LM) rang out for attention with all the racket of a fire bell going off in a broom closet. “Program alarm,” astronaut Neil Armstrong called out from the LM in a clipped but calm voice. “It’s a twelve-oh-two.” “1202,” repeated astronaut Buzz Aldrin. They were 33,500 […]

“The Eagle has wings!” radioed Neil Armstrong from the lunar module as he and Buzz Aldrin flew sixty-nine miles above the moon. Four words. There was no doubt of their meaning: The lunar module Eagle had separated from the command module Columbia and was now flying solo. It was ready to descent onto the moon. Big smiles back on Earth, back […]
Space… it’s dangerous out there: micrometeoroids, radiation, airlessness. And coming home would be no picnic, either. The compact-car-sized space capsule would be greeted by searing white-hot flames as it slammed madly back down to earth. “In designing the command module, the one thing we had to be sure of was that we could keep the […]

From left to right, Neil A. Armstrong, Michael Collins, and Buzz Aldrin. They’d have to be comfortable with danger. They’d need quick reactions […]
Honestly, I did not know there was so many types of coal until I researched for this post. But, before we get into that, let’s dive into what coal is. Coal is formed from decayed plant matter and is commonly found in sedimentary rock. Over half of the electricity produced in the United States is made […]
The “Medusa stage,” the second stage of jellyfish’s life, is what most of us picture when we think of a jellyfish. They spend this phase of their existence as opacity-filled floating balloons with trailing tentacles. If the beginning of a jellyfish’s existence wasn’t thrilling enough, the end is much more thrilling. When the everlasting jellyfish […]
Although the panda-ant appears to be charming, its sting is really unpleasant! Although it is technically not an ant, but rather a wasp, its colors and patterns are aposematic, indicating that other predators should avoid it.
