I'm always fascinated that the Andromeda galaxy is 2.5 million light years away, is about 152,000 light years across, and can be seen as a tiny smudge with the naked eye on moonless nights. It will collide with the Milky Way in 4-5 billion years, although it is likely no damage will occur as the distance between objects is so great.

For all we know the stars in the Andromeda galaxy could have been eaten by some advanced alien species piece by piece, and we would not learn that in our lifetimes or for millions of years, unless the aliens can travel a thousand times the speed of light. But probably not.

Bacteria on your skin cause your itches. Specifically, bacteria known as Staphylococcus aureus can release a chemical that activates a protein in our nerves. This sends a signal from our skin to our brains, which our brain perceives as an itch.

I've been there. Griffith Park was so close to me when I was a kid. Been there many times. Was practically my home away from home.

In 1524, the last letter to be added to the English alphabet was the letter “J.” Before it became a letter, the letter “i” was used for both “i” and “j.”

Turritopsis dohrnii — otherwise known as the immortal jellyfish — is a tiny creature smaller than the nail on your pinky finger. It possesses an extraordinary ability to revert its cells back to their earliest form, essentially resetting its life cycle.

Koala fingerprints are so similar to human fingerprints that it's hard to tell them apart even under a microscope.

As any good tailor will tell you, on 85% of American men, the left testicle hangs lower than the right.

If you go to duckduckgo.com, type in QR, leave a space, then type in a URL, it'll generate a QR code for that URL.

For instance: QR zpost.com will render this QR code.
