Michael Flores+FollowAggressive Fish Take Over Malaysian LakePeacock bass are taking over a Malaysian lake and it’s getting wild. These flashy invaders, originally from the Amazon, are outcompeting local fish and even eating their eggs—yikes! Officials are so worried they’re holding fishing competitions just to get rid of them. Apparently, if you release non-native fish, you could get slapped with a $4,700 fine. Who knew a fish could cause this much drama? #Science #InvasiveSpecies #PeacockBass20Share
Patrick Simmons+FollowGalaxies Hiding in Plain Sight?!Astronomers just found a whole bunch of 'hidden galaxies' that were basically invisible until now—think 2,000+ dusty, faint galaxies that could totally change what we know about the universe. These secret galaxies are bursting with star power and might explain some cosmic mysteries, like where all that missing energy comes from. The wild part? There could be way more galaxies out there than we ever thought. Space just got a lot more crowded! #Science #SpaceDiscovery #HiddenGalaxies00Share
Jessica Hodge+FollowCaught: Planets Being Born in Real Time!Astronomers just snapped the first-ever pic of rocky planets forming around a baby sun outside our solar system—basically, we’re seeing new worlds come to life! Using NASA’s Webb Telescope and a Chilean observatory, scientists spotted the exact moment solid specks started clumping together, just like Earth did billions of years ago. This could mean planet-making is way more common than we thought. Imagine watching a solar system’s origin story unfold 1,370 light-years away! #Science #SpaceNews #Astronomy682Share
Melvin Mosley+FollowJupiter’s North Pole Is Throwing Science CurveballsJupiter just dropped a cosmic bombshell! Scientists using NASA’s Juno spacecraft found wild new plasma waves swirling over the planet’s north pole—something we’ve never seen anywhere else in the solar system. Turns out, Jupiter’s insane magnetic field and crazy mix of charged particles are creating plasma waves that are totally unique. It’s like the planet’s throwing its own science rave up there. Space is officially weirder than we thought! #Science #Jupiter #SpaceNews00Share
James Brady+FollowMicroplastics Invade the Galapagos?!Microplastics are showing up in the Galapagos—yep, even in this iconic protected paradise. Scientists found these tiny plastic bits in turtles and sand, proving pollution doesn’t care about borders. The wild part? These plastics travel across oceans, sneaking into even the most untouched places. Cleanup efforts are underway, but experts say the real fix is rethinking our plastic use. Kinda wild (and scary) to think the stuff we toss can end up halfway around the world! #Science #Galapagos #Microplastics11Share
Tamara Jones+FollowWhales Are Migrating Early—Here’s WhyHumpback whales are hitting the road (well, ocean) almost a month early now! Researchers found their southern migration shifted by 3 weeks since 2003. Why? Melting sea ice and fewer krill—their main snack—are forcing them to change plans. More whales, less food, and climate change are shaking up the ocean’s rhythm. Scientists say this isn’t just a fluke; it’s a sign the whole marine ecosystem is feeling the heat. Wild, right? #Science #HumpbackWhales #ClimateChange50Share
Richard Vaughan+FollowThe Meteor That Bounced Off Earth?!Imagine a space rock so massive it flattened 80 million trees—then just bounced off our atmosphere and kept going! That’s what scientists now think happened at Tunguska in 1908. No crater, just a mind-blowing mid-air explosion as the asteroid skimmed the sky, unleashed a blast as strong as a nuke, and vanished. Wildest part? It could totally happen again, and we’re only just getting good at spotting these cosmic drive-bys. #Science #Tunguska #SpaceMystery511Share
Melvin Mosley+FollowGlaciers Are Turning Into Swiss Cheese?!Scientists just spotted something wild: glaciers in Switzerland are developing holes like Swiss cheese, and it’s not a good sign. These holes start small, then collapse and grow as the ice melts faster than it can rebuild—thanks to rising temps and less snowfall. Why care? Melting glaciers mess with everything from drinking water to farming, and even boost sea levels. The only fix? Cutting carbon pollution and switching to cleaner energy. Anyone else worried about this? #Science #ClimateChange #GlacierMelt32Share
Tamara Jones+FollowBear Caught Roaming the Backyard!Imagine looking out your window and spotting a massive black bear just sniffing around your yard! That’s exactly what happened in Chicopee, MA—a homeowner caught the whole thing on video. Bears are wandering into neighborhoods more often as their natural food sources disappear. If you see one, don’t try to get closer for a selfie—just back away slowly. Pro tip: lock up your trash and bring in bird feeders to keep bears from coming back for snacks! #Science #WildlifeEncounters #BearSafety00Share
Richard Vaughan+FollowLake Michigan’s Hidden Crater MysteryScientists just found 40 massive craters chilling at the bottom of Lake Michigan, and nobody saw this coming! These aren’t tiny dents—some are up to 1,000 feet wide and 40 feet deep. The wild part? Experts aren’t sure if they’re ancient sinkholes or something else entirely. The sonar images look unreal, and now everyone’s buzzing about what secrets might be hiding down there. Imagine what else could be lurking under the lake! #Science #LakeMichigan #ScienceMystery00Share
