Archaeologists examining a 1,600-year-old Egyptian mummy found something no one had ever seen before: a page of Homer’s Iliad, used as embalming material — meaning one of the most famous poems in human history spent sixteen centuries wrapped around a body, doing a job no librarian could have imagined Every commercial jet flying today gets struck by lightning roughly once a year — a 200,000-ampere bolt courses through the fuselage and exits via the tail, and most passengers land at their destination never knowing it happened The Soviet Buran shuttle flew exactly once, in November 1988, completing two unmanned orbits and landing itself in a crosswind on a Kazakh runway with such precision that engineers found it stopped within 3 metres of the centreline — and then the program was cancelled and the orbiter was crushed 14 years later when its hangar roof collapsed. Psychology suggests people who suddenly downsize their lives in their 60s — smaller house, fewer clothes, shorter guest lists — aren’t giving up, they’re finally noticing what was costing them without earning its keep About 46,000 objects are now tracked around Earth, and roughly 30,000 are not functioning satellites — one collision can turn two of them into thousands, making orbital debris a risk that manufactures more of itself A man once claimed he lived an entire life inside his mind — falling in love, getting married, raising two children — until one day he noticed a lamp in his living room looked strangely wrong, and the world around him began to collapse. Uranus rotates almost completely on its side, tipped by 97.77 degrees, most likely by a giant impact billions of years ago — but its tilted moons keep the case from being closed NASA’s whole 2026 budget was 24 billion dollars, a new poverty-economics study puts the real price of ending extreme poverty at up to 318 billion dollars a year, and the math behind ‘fund poverty instead of space’ turns out to run the wrong direction Voyager 2 may have caught Uranus on a freak day — a 2024 reanalysis suggests the 1986 flyby that shaped four decades of understanding arrived during a compressed state estimated to occur only about 4% of the time For roughly a billion years of Earth’s deep past, the Moon’s ocean tides may have slowed the planet while a Sun-driven atmospheric tide sped it up, holding the day near 19 hours — but the rocks preserve a hypothesis, not a stopwatchSpace News
