- Mind-blowing fact: The Sun loses over 4 million tons of mass every single second! It's not disappearing. Through nuclear fusion, hydrogen atoms fuse into helium, converting that "lost" mass into the immense energy that powers our solar system (E=mc²). Source: NASA

- The wood frog survives winter by freezing solid until its heart and breathing stop. It floods its cells with glucose, a natural antifreeze that prevents lethal ice crystals from forming. Come spring, it thaws out and hops away completely unharmed. (Source: U.S. NPS) #Biology
- The Apollo astronauts' footprints on the Moon will be there for millions of years. Humanity's first steps on another world, preserved. The Moon has no atmosphere, so there's no wind or water to ever wipe them away. Source: NASA #SpaceFacts #Moon
- Here's a fact to mess with your perception of time. We are closer in time to the Tyrannosaurus rex than the T. rex was to the Stegosaurus. T. rex lived ~66 million years ago, while the gap separating it from Stegosaurus was over 80 million years! Source: American Museum of
- Your brain runs on just 20 watts of power. That's enough to light a dim bulb, yet its efficient neural structure allows it to tackle problems more complex than any supercomputer. (Source: Stanford University) #Neuroscience #BrainPower
- Forget lava. Some volcanoes in our solar system erupt ice! On moons like Saturn's Enceladus, these cryovolcanoes spew plumes of water, methane, and ammonia from beneath a frozen surface. (Source: NASA) #Cryovolcanoes #Space
