Space trash is falling from the sky.
Space trash is falling from the sky. And that's not the worst of it.
This video of an alleged decommissioned satellite that fell on a car in Boston reveals something much darker about the thousands of satellites orbiting Earth.
Space debris has evolved from a theoretical concern to a tangible reality. According to a @washingtonpost article, in May 2024, a farmer near Saskatchewan found space debris in his fields, followed by a similar finding in North Carolina. These incidents are not isolated - in March, "an ISS support released by NASA crashed into a house in Florida," although fortunately there were no injuries.
The problem is more serious than it appears. Experts cited in the article estimate that "there are more than half a million small fragments of debris flying around Earth." Even the smallest particles, traveling at "22,000 miles per hour, can ruin a critical satellite or threaten the ISS."
The situation could worsen significantly. The article notes that "some experts suggest there will be more than 60,000 active satellites by 2030." Without immediate action, there is a risk that the planet will be surrounded by a cloud of garbage that makes "orbital zones uninhabitable for human activity and space-based devices that enable modern life."
Proposed solutions include new regulations, such as the recent Federal Communications Commission rule that "requires satellite disposal no more than five years after the end of their useful life," a significant improvement over the "United Nations' 25-year standard." Innovative solutions are also being explored, such as the example of "Japan recently building a satellite primarily made of wood."
The article concludes that this is an international problem that requires a new convention governing space conduct, especially considering that current treaties "forged in the 1960s and 1970s prohibit countries from touching each other's material," which complicates cleanup efforts.

Why dogs act silly when tickled?
Dogs go all crazy when you tickle them because it's like activating their internal "clown mode" 😄 Their brain receives that tickling sensation and it's like they get a happiness short circuit - they start squirming, wagging their tail like a blender and sticking out their tongue while making those super funny faces. It's almost like their body doesn't know whether to laugh, play or escape from the tickles... and they end up doing all three things at once! It's their adorable way of telling us "hey, this makes me really happy but it also drives me crazy!"

WOW! The risk of colon cancer may be increased by the use of ultra-processed seed oils.
🚨 New study reveals link between omega-6 fatty acids (found in vegetable oils and ultra-processed foods) and inflammation in colorectal cancer tumors. The research, which analyzed samples from 81 patients in the U.S., found excessive levels of these lipids along with a deficiency in omega-3 (anti-inflammatory). This finding could explain the increase in cases among people under 50.

According to @businessinsider many musicians struggled during the pandemic. Lil Wayne wasn't one of them. He sold master recordings from his record label's artists for more than $100 million. He was pardoned for felony gun possession in a last-minute action by then-President Donald Trump. He purchased a $15.4 million mansion in the mountains of Los Angeles.

While we may sometimes fear things that aren't actually dangerous, the sensation of fear itself (increased adrenaline, accelerated heart rate, heightened alertness) is completely real and serves an important function in our survival. 🦋
The key is learning to distinguish between rational fears that protect us and irrational fears that unnecessarily limit us. 💭

🌊 Nestled between majestic mountains and crystal-clear waters, Lake Como is where Italian dreams come to life. Every corner tells a centuries-old story, from its elegant villas to its timeless gardens. It's not just a destination, it's a living work of art. ✨

Tips for visiting Lake Como:
The best time to visit is between April and October when the weather is pleasant and tourist services are in full swing. I suggest staying in towns like Bellagio or Varenna, which are more peaceful and authentic than Como city.
Ferries are the best way to explore the lake - buy a day pass to visit different towns. Don't miss Villa Carlotta and Villa del Balbianello, they're must-sees for their gardens and architecture. For a more local experience, explore the small mountain villages and try restaurants away from the tourist areas, where you'll find authentic Lombard cuisine.
For incredible photos, wake up early and capture the sunrise when the lake is calm and the light is perfect. You'll find the best panoramic views from the Brunate funicular or walking along the Lake's Greenway.
The Zero-Down Real Estate Investing Roadmap
Here’s how to take your family on a dream vacation every year without saving up for months with real estate…
Without buying any properties.
It’s a little-known strategy for the average Joe to profit from real estate without deep pockets.
It has nothing to do with AirBnBs, fix and flips, or any other strategy heard of.
This strategy doesn’t require buying properties, flipping houses, or dealing with tenants.
It took Rick Melero from being a jobless and broke young man staying in his friend’s mobile home two decades ago…
…to building a business that has done over $500M in transactions today.
ALL without buying a single property.
It’s called the Microbanking Method.
While this strategy has allowed Rick to travel the world and rub elbows with some of the sharpest millionaires out there, he’s never talked about it publicly.
But today, that changes.
After seeing so many people struggle financially, especially in recent times, Rick feels a moral obligation to share this opportunity.
He just filmed a free training that will walk through what microbanking is and exactly how to get started with it.
And how, with a few simple steps, anyone can use it to leave their 9-5 and become their own boss too.
So just click the link below, then click the button to reveal the strategy and check out the training.
