Sometimes, the best science happens on accident. A team using Hubble studied a comet (not even their first-choice target!) and realized they were witnessing it in the act of breaking apart. Find out more about these ultra-rare observations:

🚨OFFICIAL: NASA Updates on 3I/ATLAS NASA just updated the official page for 3I/ATLAS. The page includes a tracking tool, that features the assets, and events listed below: NASA Assets Observing Comet 3I/ATLAS NASA's Hubble Space Telescope captured this image of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS on July 21, 2025, when the comet was 277 million miles from Earth. Hubble revealed a teardrop-shaped cocoon of dust coming off of the comet's solid, icy nucleus. Because Hubble was tracking the comet moving along a hyperbolic trajectory, the stationary background stars are streaked in the exposure. Hubble’s continuing observations allow astronomers to more accurately estimate the size of the comet’s nucleus. Observations as of Aug. 20, 2025, indicate that the upper limit on its diameter is 3.5 miles (5.6 kilometers), though it could be as small as 1,444 feet (440 meters) across. NASA assets that are planning to gather observations of 3I/ATLAS include: Hubble, Webb, TESS, Swift, SPHEREx, Perseverance Mars rover, Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, Curiosity rover, Europa Clipper, Lucy, Psyche, Parker Solar Probe, PUNCH, and ESA/NASA’s SOHO and Juice.

In November 2024, environmental police in Rochedo, Brazil, stumbled on an unexpected sight: thousands of orange-and-black bumblebee catfish scaling the slippery rocks behind waterfalls on the Aquidauana River. A week later, a team of Brazilian scientists arrived to document the unprecedented event, detailing their findings in a 2025 study. These videos provide rare insight into the lives and migrations of these little-studied catfish. Learn more: #ScienceMagArchives

Last week a did a video on my TikTok talking about how Lawyers steal from Accident Victims and I realized it is such a common practice that even Advocates were coming after me on my inbox saying that ‘ Naharibu soko’ The scale of the problem was far more disturbing than I had anticipated. I received over 500 message requests from accident victims who shared how their compensation was stolen by these Advocates. We are talking about compensation in the Millions for each victim. Most of these victims are even dead. Imagine stealing 3 million from a family who lost their bread winner and that compensation was their only hope for survival. THIS IS A DISTASTEFUL BEHAVIOR FROM SOME ADVOCATES and we must find to come after them.

“They just simply are not even close to the best team in the NFL. It would have been absurd if they won the Super Bowl” -Mark Titus “It took a once in a lifetime schedule, it took Bo Nix breaking his ankle, it took the refs saying Brandin Cooks did not catch that ball, it took all these things to get them to the Super Bowl and when they got that opportunity and got there they just let out an audible fart for the entire first half” -Brandon Walker

In a historical milestone, Hubble has spotted asteroids colliding ☄️ at the nearby star Fomalhaut. In 2008, scientists used Hubble to discover a candidate planet around Fomalhaut, an object called Fomalhaut b. While searching for Fomalhaut b in recent Hubble observations, scientists discovered it was actually a dust cloud masquerading as a planet – the result of colliding planetesimals. They were also surprised to find a second dust cloud! They had just witnessed a collision between massive objects. The Fomalhaut system seems to be in dynamical upheaval – a similar state to our own solar system in the first few hundred million years after formation.

The Brewers broadcast team lost their read out sheet due to wind and got stuck in the netting. After talking about it, the cameraman zoomed in on the sheet and they were able to read from it. How can you not be romantic about anything related to baseball. Best thing you’ll see today

THEY WERE WARNED 4 TIMES! At what point will the ineptitude of the Australian government cause someone to fall on their sword? They were repeatedly warned about fuel security and they did nothing because it didn’t fit their green energy agenda. If you’re repeatedly warned about a hazard at work and you fail to act on that hazard and something happens, you’re responsible Anthony Albanese

🚨 This is unacceptable. 🚨 Last night in HHS SMART Act hearings, Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment admitted they are not following the federal vaccine schedule — despite receiving hundreds of millions in federal funding. Why? Because they claim to be “following the science.” These are the same people who told us: • Locking kids out of school was “the science” • Masking children for years was “the science” • Multiple COVID shots for kids were “the science” • And watching mental health, learning, and development collapse was “worth it” Now they want to ignore federal standards, keep COVID shots on the childhood schedule, reject reduced dosing, and act shocked when asked about losing funding. When I asked what happens if Colorado loses $324 million, their answer was: Funding is “stable.” That’s not science. That’s ideology protected by bureaucracy. Parents deserve transparency. Taxpayers deserve accountability. Colorado families deserve better than officials who never admit they were wrong.
