Venus spins so slowly that one rotation takes longer than its entire year. A Venusian day is about 243 Earth days, while a Venusian year lasts about 225 — and because the planet rotates backwards compared with Earth and most other planets, the Sun would rise in the west and set in the east. The 1518 dancing plague of Strasbourg began when Frau Troffea stepped into the street and danced without stopping, drew as many as 400 townspeople into the mania, and later chronicles claimed some died before it ended on its own The Overtoun Bridge in Scotland has seen hundreds of dogs leap from the same parapet since the 1950s, often on clear days from the right side, and one behavioural investigation pointed to the scent of mink below A single bolt of lightning can heat the air around it to roughly five times the temperature of the surface of the Sun, and it is the violent expansion of that superheated air that creates the crack of thunder. The 1965 space pen myth: NASA didn’t spend millions to build a pen and the Soviets didn’t outsmart anyone with a pencil. Inventor Paul C. Fisher quietly developed the pressurised pen on his own dime and only sold it to NASA. Almost every atom in your body heavier than hydrogen was forged inside stars that died long before the Sun was born, which means the iron in your blood and the calcium in your bones are quite literally the remains of dead stars If you dropped Mount Everest into the deepest point of the ocean, its peak would still sit more than two kilometres beneath the surface, because the Mariana Trench plunges far deeper than the mountain stands tall The oxygen in Earth’s atmosphere is essential to almost every animal alive today — but when it first started accumulating in the air roughly 2.4 billion years ago, it triggered the most lethal pollution event in the planet’s history, wiping out the vast majority of species alive at the time, in what biologists now call the Great Oxidation Event The famous claim about archaeologists finding still-edible 3,000-year-old honey in Egyptian tombs is mostly folklore — but the underlying chemistry that makes honey nearly immortal in a sealed jar is real, well-documented, and perhaps even stranger than the myth There are more atoms in a single glass of water than there are glasses of water in all the world’s oceans combined — and if you marked every atom in one glass, dumped it into the sea, and waited for the oceans to mix completely, every glass of water on Earth would contain several thousand of those marked atoms
