"TIL that Brussels Sprouts have been selectively bred over the last few decades to taste less bitter, indirectly lessening their anti-cancer properties."
"TIL that in 1859 a 2 hour telegraph conversation between Portland and Boston was able to be had without the use of any battery power. This was due to an aurora borealis generating enough electric current in the telegraph wires."
"TIL in the midst of Greenland's pristine landscape lies a U.S. Air Force base which was abandoned in 1947 and everything was left behind; dilapidated vehicles, asbestos-laden structures, and 10,000 leaking fuel barrels. The Inuits who live in the region call the rusted remains "American Flowers"."

#14 I once played a softball game on a team with Bruce McCandless as part of a publicity event. He was very chill and modest about his whole space walk thing. He was happy to talk about it, but also happy to discuss anything else without himself being the center of attention. He was down to earth (Ha!) and couldn't have been nicer, more friendly or approachable.
