Intricate network of tree roots and moss on a forest hillside, showcasing nature's resilience.

Suzanne Simard sealed paper birch and Douglas fir seedlings inside plastic bags, fed them carbon-14 and carbon-13 dioxide, and nine days later found carbon had crossed between species through fungal threads in the British Columbia soil beneath her boots

Close-up of glowing jellyfish swimming gracefully in deep green ocean waters.

A species of jellyfish called Turritopsis dohrnii can revert its adult cells back to a juvenile polyp stage when injured or starving, effectively restarting its life cycle, and biologists have so far failed to identify any natural limit to how many times it can do this.

A Japanese man named Jiroemon Kimura, who lived to 116, was born in 1897 when Queen Victoria still ruled and died in 2013, meaning a single human life personally overlapped with the invention of the airplane, the atomic bomb, the internet, and Instagram

In the early 1980s, a Dutch radio broadcaster figured out how to transmit video games over standard commercial radio broadcasts — and teenagers across Europe would sit with blank cassette tapes waiting for the local station to broadcast a series of high-pitched squeaks and buzzes that they could record and load into their home computers

Sony’s PlayStation 2 was so computationally advanced when it launched in 2000 that the government of Iraq reportedly imported over 4,000 of the gaming consoles — sparking an intense military investigation over fears that the systems would be chained together to build a crude, low-cost supercomputer capable of guiding long-range missiles
