Imagine you’re a copper miner in southeastern Europe in the year 3900 BCE. Day after day you haul copper ore through the mine’s sweltering tunnels.
You’ve resigned yourself to the grueling monotony of mining life. Then one afternoon, you witness a fellow worker doing something remarkable.
With an odd-looking contraption, he casually t

Experiment ANITA je soustava přístrojů, které se přízračně vznášejí s balony vysoko nad Antarktidou. Měl by detekovat rádiové vlny generované částicemi kosmického záření, ale naladil podivné, anomální vlny, které jako by procházejí planetou, ale přitom to nejsou neutrina.

Parking in a city can be a problem. It’s not just about finding parking—it’s about finding the right parking. Sometimes, there’s a $10 parking spot only a block away from a garage that charges $50!
So how do you know the best place to park—especially if you’re new to an area, as I was a few years ago, or if you’re traveling and aren’t familiar with a city?
For me, the answer is a smart and completely free user-submitted database of parking spots and rates. It’ll
If you’ve ever flown through outer space, at least while watching a documentary or a science fiction film, you’ve seen how artists turn astronomical findings into stunning visuals. But in the process of visualizing data for their latest planetarium show, a production team at New York’s American Museum of Natural History made a surprising discovery of their own: a trillion-and-a-half mile long spiral of material drifting along the edge of our solar system.

The latest TikTok trend has people exposing their terrible exes and most toxic relationship stories to Lorde’s new single “ ">Man of the Year“—with receipts.
Since the song dropped at the end of last month, the trend has quickly gained traction on TikTok. Typically following a slideshow format, users post a selfie before revealing a series of text messages or, worse, a voice note from truly the worst villains.
President Donald Trump announced, back on February 25, that his administration would soon debut a “gold card,” an immigration program that would allow wealthy foreigners, for the low, low price of $5 million, to become lawful permanent residents of the United States. At the time, Trump touted the program as a “great” and “fantastic” revenue generation strategy that would help reduce the national deficit, which approached $2 trillion during the most recent fiscal year.

In 1999, I got to work on a literally once-in-a-lifetime project. As the 20th century was wrapping up, the magazine where I worked declared the personal computer the most important invention of the last 100 years. It wasn’t exactly a contrarian pick: The magazine in question was PC World.

Right-wing conspiracy theorists once believed the government was using drones to surveil its own citizens. President Donald Trump actually did.
