Richard Vaughan+FollowStonehenge: Humans Did the Heavy Lifting!Turns out, Stonehenge’s giant stones weren’t just dropped off by glaciers after all! Scientists checked the sand around the site and found zero evidence of ancient ice sheets doing the work. Instead, it looks like Neolithic people actually dragged and hauled those massive rocks from Wales and Scotland—using nothing but stone-age tools, sledges, and pure determination. Next time you’re struggling to move furniture, just remember: our ancestors moved 6-ton stones across hundreds of miles! #Science #Stonehenge #HistoryMystery80Share
Richard Vaughan+FollowWhy coyote sightings spike in your neighborhoodLate winter is when coyotes really make their presence known around homes, thanks to their mating season and a hunt for easy meals. If you’ve noticed more of them cutting through backyards or parks, it’s not random—this is the time when they roam more, get bolder, and are hungrier than usual. Spring brings another wave as they guard dens and pups, and fall sees young coyotes testing the edges of suburbia. The real risk is to pets, not people, so keeping dogs leashed and food secured goes a long way. Anyone else seeing more coyotes lately? What’s your go-to strategy for keeping pets safe? #Science #Coyotes #NeighborhoodSafety00Share
Richard Vaughan+FollowSpace’s Weirdest Mysteries No One Can SolveSpace isn’t just stars and planets—it’s full of things that make even scientists scratch their heads. From radio bursts that scream across the cosmos to rogue planets with no sun, and objects like Oumuamua that don’t act like anything we’ve seen before, the universe is basically trolling us. Every time we think we’ve got it figured out, something new pops up and blows our minds. Which of these space oddities do you think will finally spill its secrets first? #Science #SpaceMysteries #ScienceIsWeird00Share
Patrick Simmons+FollowNazaré’s 7-Story Waves Seen from Space!Did you know Nazaré, Portugal just had waves as tall as a 7-story building? Satellite pics caught these monsters crashing ashore, stirring up underwater plumes you can literally see from space. On the same day, an 18-year-old local surfer may have set a new world record by riding a 101-foot wave! Nazaré’s crazy waves are thanks to a massive underwater canyon that supercharges the surf. Wild, right? Would you ever try surfing there? #Science #Nazaré #BigWaveSurfing00Share
Michael Flores+FollowYou Won’t Believe This Monster WaveImagine a wave so huge it lifts a buoy 58 feet in the air—like a four-story building! In 2020, off British Columbia, scientists recorded the most extreme 'rogue wave' ever, nearly three times bigger than the waves around it. These freak waves are super rare (like once every 1,300 years), but climate change could make them more common. The wildest part? We only know about it because a buoy happened to be in the right place at the right time! #Science #RogueWave #OceanMysteries20Share
Michelle York+FollowWildlife Smugglers, Meet Your MatchScientists are using a century-old technique called stable isotope analysis to bust wildlife traffickers! By analyzing turtle claws, they can tell if a reptile was snatched from the wild or raised in captivity. This means no more ‘I swear it’s legal!’ excuses from smugglers. With more accurate convictions, we could see a real dent in the illegal wildlife trade—and help protect ecosystems from invasive species. Science for the win! #Science #WildlifeTrafficking #ScienceWins30Share
Patrick Simmons+FollowGravity’s Secret: It’s All About Entropy?!What if gravity isn’t a fundamental force, but just the universe’s way of keeping track of messy, spreading information? A wild new theory says gravity could actually emerge from entropy—the same thing that makes your coffee cool down. If true, this could finally bridge the gap between Einstein’s relativity and quantum physics. Imagine: the universe curves and clumps not because of a mysterious force, but because it’s obsessed with maximizing disorder. Mind. Blown. #Science #Physics #Gravity10Share
Tamara Jones+FollowTime Isn’t What We Thought?!Turns out, time isn’t the rock-solid, ever-ticking thing we thought it was. Quantum mechanics is flipping the script: experiments show time can run differently in the same room, and sometimes it’s not even clear what comes first! Some scientists now think time is just a side effect of deeper, weirder quantum rules. The universe might not have a single, universal clock—just a tangled web of moments. Mind. Blown. Imagine living in a world where time is more illusion than fact! #Science #QuantumMechanics #TimeIsWeird10Share
Michelle York+FollowStar Explodes Twice & Breaks ScienceImagine a star so extra, it exploded not once but TWICE—and astronomers caught the whole thing on camera! This wild cosmic event, dubbed AT2025ulz, stayed bright way longer than anyone thought possible and is basically rewriting what we know about how stars die. Some scientists think a newborn black hole or magnetar might be behind the double drama. Space just keeps getting weirder, and honestly, I’m here for it! #Science #SpaceMystery #StarExplosion30Share
Tamara Jones+FollowScientists Just Unlocked a 1930s Dark Matter SecretImagine a theory from the 1930s finally getting proven in 2024! Chinese scientists have just confirmed the Migdal effect—a long-lost idea that could be the key to finally spotting dark matter, the invisible glue holding the universe together. After 80+ years and some seriously high-tech experiments, they found real evidence. This could totally change how we hunt for dark matter and understand the universe. Wild, right? #Science #DarkMatter #ScienceNews10Share
