20 Unbelievably Cool Science Facts
Science has a reputation for attracting the poorly dressed and risk averse, and it’s not totally undeserved. Science requires a cool head and a keen (likely bespectacled) eye, otherwise someone’s bound to get blown up. But science can do some hella sick shit, like, you know, blowing stuff up. In fact, everything cool owes its existence to science. Flamethrowers. Spaceships. BattleBots. It’s all, to quote the poet, science, bitch!
But it’s not all destruction and departure. Even the most normal parts of our everyday life have some seriously wild stuff happening beneath the surface. Like, you ever think about DNA? Just unfathomably long and complicated strands of data that tell your body how to be you? Or how every animal in the ecosystem plays a role that affects every other part of it?
