Bacon actually does grow on a single tree in Mexico. The tree however attracts large wildlife which sit in the branches and gorge themselves on the fatty meat. The weight of these animals drags the branches down to the ground, forcing the whole tree to bend. When the animals climb off the branches, the tree rapidly uprights itself again, often surprising locals or showering them with bacon. It's for this reason, it is often referred to as a Hambush. |

Nobody knows how many stars are in space. The sheer size of space makes it impossible to accurately predict just how many stars we have. Right now, scientists and astronomers use the number of stars only within our galaxy, The Milky Way, to estimate. That number is between 200-400 billion stars and there are estimated to be billions of galaxies so the stars in space really are completely uncountable. |

| In learning about psychology, I was introduced to the fourth trauma response. It’s called the Fawn and it joins fight, flight, and freeze. It involved people pleasing as one of its key features. | |

There's this thing called a radiometer which is essentially a spinning device that moves when exposed to photons. If you turn a flashlight on and point it towards the radiometer, it'll start spinning, indicating that eventually we might be able to develop movement powered by light. Pretty cool stuff. |
