Fun fact: Your skin completely renews itself roughly every 2–4 weeks—so you’re wearing a new ‘you’ more often than you think. We’ve all heard the claim— “you change every seven years.” Maybe your aunt said it at a family dinner. Or it came up during a conversation about relationships, careers, or personal growth. But is …
Fun Fact: The American Psychological Association (APA) officially recognised “eco-anxiety” as a legitimate psychological condition in 2017. You’re not imagining it. The tightness in your chest when you read about forest fires, the guilt when you forget your cloth bag, the dread that creeps in when monsoon patterns shift—it has a name. It’s called eco-anxiety. …
Fun Fact: A single drop of glacier meltwater can take weeks—or even years—to reach your kitchen tap! We turn on the tap and out comes water, clean and ready to drink. But have you ever wondered where it came from? Not just the city reservoir or the water tank, but really—where? In this blog, we …
Fun Fact: Albert Einstein once said, “I have no special talents. I am only passionately curious.” As children, wonder comes naturally. A cardboard box becomes a spaceship. A bug on the windowsill becomes a friend. The stars in the night sky are portals to somewhere else. But something shifts as we grow older. Life becomes …
Fun Fact: If you could ride a beam of light, you’d never hit the “edge” of the universe—because it doesn’t have one. The idea that the universe has no centre might sound like a philosophical riddle or a Zen koan, but it’s a scientific reality. And it’s one that flips our human instincts upside down. …
Fun Fact: Your brain can generate over 50,000 thoughts a day—but no one really knows how those thoughts become you. Think about that. You’re reading this sentence right now. You’re aware of it. You’re possibly sipping tea, half-listening to music, maybe wondering what’s for dinner. But while you’re busy being, science is still scratching its …
Fun Fact: Your tailbone—yes, the little bump at the end of your spine—is all that remains of the tail you lost millions of years ago. Let that sink in: you, a sophisticated Homo sapiens with smartphones and streaming subscriptions, are walking around with a biological souvenir from your tail-wagging ancestors. It’s easy to assume evolution …
Fun fact: Every time you remember something, your brain edits it—just a little. We like to think of our memories as recordings. A mental archive of what really happened. But neuroscience paints a very different picture. “Your Memory Is a Story, Not a File: How Brains Rewrite the Past” isn’t just a poetic metaphor—it’s a …
Fun fact: Just two minutes of staring at something awe-inspiring—like the night sky—can lower your heart rate and reduce stress hormones. It’s a feeling we’ve all experienced: that sudden intake of breath when you see a waterfall crash into a canyon, hear a powerful symphony, or look up at a starlit sky. Goosebumps. A lump …
Fun fact: A forest can “talk”—trees share nutrients and send warnings through underground fungal networks. If that sounds like a scene from Avatar, think again. It’s real. Scientists call it the “Wood Wide Web”, and it’s just one of many clues that suggest something extraordinary: nature may be far more intelligent than we’ve ever imagined. …
