Scientology is a combination of 'scient' - meaning science and 'ology' meaning science. And it just gets stupider from there.

'Sistine Chapel Of The Ancients’ Found In The Amazonian Rainforest
Archaeologists have found thousands of paintings of animals and humans across cliff faces in Colombia. This newly-discovered long stretch of prehistoric art is one of the world’s largest collections of rock art, and hailed as “the Sistine Chapel of the ancients.” Experts estimate that the paintings were created at least 12,500 years ago, as the Guardian details:
Their date is based partly on their depictions of now-extinct ice age animals, such as the mastodon, a prehistoric relative of the elephant that hasn’t roamed South America for at least 12,000 years. There are also images of the palaeolama, an extinct camelid, as well as giant sloths and ice age horses.
These animals were all seen and painted by some of the very first humans ever to reach the Amazon. Their pictures give a glimpse into a lost, ancient civilization. Such is the sheer scale of paintings that they will take generations to study.
The discovery was made last year but has been kept secret until now as it was filmed for a major Channel 4 series to be screened in December: Jungle Mystery: Lost Kingdoms of the Amazon.
The site is in the Serranía de la Lindosa where, along with the Chiribiquete national park, other rock art had been found. The documentary’s presenter, Ella Al-Shamahi, an archaeologist and explorer, told the Observer: “The new site is so new, they haven’t even given it a name yet.”
The next round of asteroid missions will try out a bunch of unusual styles of exploration.
Lucy will visit the Trojan asteroids that move in the same orbit as Jupiter. The Psyche mission will travel to the asteroid Psyche—a mysterious object that appears to be composed almost entirely of metal. DESTINY+ will head to Phaethon, a "rock-comet" asteroid that appears to be crumbling because it passes so close to the Sun. NEA Scout will use a solar sail to navigate to a near-Earth asteroid.
Most dramatic of all, the DART spacecraft will ram full-speed into a small asteroid Dimorphos in 2022. The goal is to test out a technique for deflecting a dangerous asteroid if we discover one coming our way; four years later, the Hera probe will follow up to assess the damage.
There are many reasons for this current fascination with asteroids. They contain evidence of how our solar system formed, how Earth got its water, maybe even how life got started here. They are rich, complicated mini-worlds in their own right. They are easy to visit because of their very low gravity. Someday asteroids could even provide useful resources for astronauts or for the space-based industry.
Rare Grape Variety Is Larger Than a Chicken Egg
Pictures of giant grapes, larger than the average chicken egg, have been doing the rounds on Vietnamese social media this week, raising questions about their authenticity and origin.
Novelty fruits are particularly popular in Japan, where specialized shops can sell certain varieties of apples, peaches, melons, or grapes for mind-boggling prices. However, the popularity of such fruits has spread throughout Asia, and recently the Vietnamese owner of a market stall shared some photos of a new variety of grapes imported from Japan. Using social media to promote new products is fairly standard these days, only these photos got a lot more attention than usual, because of the apparent size of the grapes. Some of these white grapes seemed to be larger than a chicken egg.
Chả rươi – Vietnam’s Popular Worm Omelet
Chả rươi, or sandworm omelet, is a seasonal Vietnamese dish made with unsightly, two-inch-long sea worms that some say give the “delicacy” a caviar-like taste.
Every year, in late fall, street food stalls in northern Vietnam, particularly in Hanoi, serve a very special dish that looks very ordinary at first glance, but that actually contains a very peculiar ingredient. Chả rươi looks like a well-done egg dish mixed with various herbs but owes its meaty texture and seafood taste to the ingredient that gives the treat its name – sandworms. Beaten egg, tangerine peel, onions, dill, and spices, before the two-inch-long sea worms, are added. The result is an ordinary-looking omelet with a very meaty kick that fans can’t get enough of in the months leading up to winter.

C8: a 2000 MPH fastball would be 20X faster than a normal fastball, rather than 2X.
I, of course, read it as 200. But thanks.
