Earth’s gravity is not even!
HEAVY, MUCH?: You thought you couldn’t see gravity. Well, the European Space Agency’s GOCE satellite has provided enough gravity data for researchers to produce a geoid map. The geoid is the surface of an ideal global ocean in the absence of tides and currents, shaped only by gravity. The globe shows regions of blue, orange and red, reflecting how gravity is distributed.

The Loneliest Whale in the World.
In 2004, The New York Times wrote an article about the loneliest whale in the world. Scientists have been tracking her since 1992 and they discovered the problem:
She isn’t like any other baleen whale. Unlike all other whales, she doesn’t have friends. She doesn’t have a family. She doesn’t belong to any tribe, pack or gang. She doesn’t have a lover. She never had one. Her songs come in groups of two to six calls, lasting for five to six seconds each. But her voice is unlike any other baleen whale. It is unique—while the rest of her kind communicate between 12 and 25hz, she sings at 52hz. You see, that’s precisely the problem. No other whales can hear her. Every one of her desperate calls to communicate remains unanswered. Each cry ignored. And, with every lonely song, she becomes sadder and more frustrated, her notes going deeper in despair as the years go by.
Just imagine that massive mammal, floating alone and singing—too big to connect with any of the beings it passes, feeling paradoxically small in the vast stretches of empty, open ocean.
awww!

Scientists at the New Zealand Marine Studies Centre placed glass shells into a hermit crab tank. The crabs moved into the glass shells shortly after, allowing scientists to study the crabs.
Legit the coolest thing ever.
wonder if the crab prefers glass shell that allows to look out without poking out of the shell??
