Einstein's 'Impossible' Experiment Finally Performed- Review Day 4

The Hubble Telescope has done the "Impossible". Hubble has viewed "a dead star about 18 light-years away warping the light of a more distant star that appeared to pass behind it" which Einstein had predicted would happen but said it would never be able to be seen. Hubble made it possible for astronomers "to read clues carried in the curved starlight and discern the mass of the dead star, called Stein 2051B." I find this extremely fascinating that we have made such advanced technology that is able to basically prove Einstein wrong. The fact that anyone could do that is just amazing; being able to prove a genius wrong seems to be an impossible task all on its own.

Prince William Played Soccer With Small Childeren And It's Too Much-Review Day 20

Prince William, AKA the Duke of Cambridge, hosted a send off for the English women's soccer team. The whole thing mostly consisted of him playing soccer with a lot of young children and it is "Royally Adorable" says Allison Wild of BuzzFeed News. This really is quite adorable and it makes me so happy to see members of the Royal family getting out there and doing things like this with their community. In many on the pictures posted of the event, Prince William looks more like a coach than a prince and it is so amazing to see. Its on very rare occasions that you see important people doing things that put them in the position of a middle class person. It makes them so much more relatable to in the publics eye.

NASA Prepares for Aug. 21 Total Solar Eclipse with Live Coverage, Safty Information-Review Day 19

For the first time in 99 years will the sun undergo a full solar eclipse that can be seen from all across the continental US. NASA is in full motion preparing for this event to show the eclipse from at least 65 different cameras; each giving a different and unique vantage point of the rare celestial event. NASA also plans on airing a multi-hour broadcast called Eclipse Across America: Through the Eyes of NASA that will be showing the eclipse live and giving information and coverage on activities in parks, libraries, stadiums, festivals and museums across the nation. I'm pretty excited for this event. Mostly because it is a once in a life time thing and I get to experience it with my family. We are actually going camping in Casper WY for it then coming back the next day to go to a Trace Adkins Concert at the fair.

A Truck Full Of Slime Eels Spilled Into The Highway And It Was The Stuff Of Nightmares- Review day 21

"#Cleanup on Aisle 101" happened to be the statement of the day in Oregon yesterday. A truck carrying 7500 pounds of slithering fish in 13 different containers over turned on US Route 101 after the 59-year-old driver was unable to stop the truck for construction work. There were no major injuries to humans but many of the creatures were lost. Initially the authorities thought that they were eels, but they are actually Hagfish, which are commonly know as slime eels. The road was closed for a few hours but reopened by 4pm. Honestly this is slightly terrifying. There are so many different things about this that just give me the creeps, a lot of them not even mentioned in the article. For instance, a truck carrying 13 containers cannot stop and spills HAGFISH all over the highway, that was traveling to Korea for consumption... 13, the most unlucky number that almost every culture has superstitions on, is the number of containers being carried. Who ever ...
