@WorldAndScience Unless it comes to a point when they are able to tell us with accuracy and sincerity that they are experiencing suffering, then the answer will continue to be no.
A magnet is an object that creates a magnetic field, which can attract certain metals like iron, nickel, and cobalt. This force comes from the alignment of tiny magnetic fields of atoms inside the material, making it either pull objects toward it or repel other magnets
A massive chunk of ice, extending far below the water's surface, detaches from a glacier and is launched 200ft (61m) into the air due to its lower density compared to seawater.

@WorldAndScience I believe that it is very likely that intelligent life exists beyond Earth. There could in fact be multiple intelligent species on other planets throughout the universe. Perhaps most of these beings have not discovered space travel and maybe never will so we will never know them.

Sprites are TLEs or Transient Luminous Events, that happen above the clouds and are triggered by intense electrical activity in the thunderstorms below. We have a great view above the clouds, so scientists can use these types of pictures to better understand the formation, characteristics, and relationship of TLEs to thunderstorms.
