FIRST: The blobfish!!

SECOND: Voyager 1 made it to the outer galaxy on August 25th! We’re just finding out about it today because a) it took so long for the data to make it all the way back to earth, and b) research embargoes.

THIRD: As of today, Richard Feynman’s Lectures on Physics are now available to all, free online! Just in time for some light weekend reading.

FOURTH: Nature’s first known natural gears help this little bugger walk!
