Why is honeycomb made of hexagons? ⬡
Most honey, least wax. Mathematicians only proved it in 1999.

Bees DANCE to give each other directions. 🐝
The angle of the dance points to the flowers; the length says how far.

Is the Earth a ball of liquid fire inside? Nope. 🌋
Most of it is solid rock. Melted rock only forms in special pockets.

There's a lake so salty you literally can't sink in it. 🌊
Rivers pour in, nothing flows out, so the salt just piles up.

NASA just announced a MAJOR overhaul of the Artemis program. Here’s what’s changed, according to @NASAAdmin @rookisaacman:

NEW MISSIONS:
Artemis 3 is no longer a moon landing 🤯 It's now a crewed test mission in Low Earth Orbit in 2027 - docking with SpaceX's Starship and/or Blue Origin's Blue Moon lander to test systems and new spacesuits BEFORE anyone tries to land on the moon. The actual lunar landing now moves to Artemis 4, targeted for early 2028. Artemis 5 would follow by late 2028. That’s two crewed lunar landing attempts in one year, with NASA targeting at least one surface landing every year after that.

NEW ARCHITECTURE:
Block 1B - the planned upgrade to the SLS rocket - is dead. No more custom builds. No second mobile launcher. NASA is standardizing the rocket so they can launch every 10-12 months instead of every 3.5 years.

Why?
NASA is framing this as a return to the Apollo mindset. SLS has the worst launch cadence of any NASA-designed vehicle… ever. It’s been 3+ years since Artemis I launched. The gap between Apollo 7 and 8 was just 9 weeks! You can't build muscle memory launching once every few years. Plus… China.

The response?
A Senior NASA Official told me Congress and all prime contractors are on board - Boeing, Lockheed, SpaceX, and Blue Origin. And FWIW… so am I.
