Random Facts

Every day my twitter feed updates me with random and often useless facts. Here are some things I have learned over the past couple of weeks:

Buzz Aldrin's mother's maiden name was "Moon".

Humpback whales have best friends

All cattle and deer sleep with their heads pointing north

There is a dinosaur named after Harry Potter

Death Star from Star Wars would cost about $852,000,000,000,000,000 if humans try to build it in real world.

A condom can be used to carry 1 litre of water.

The International Space Station is the most expensive object ever constructed, costing about $150 billion USD.

Over 98 % of Norway's electricity comes from renewable energy

Pumpkin is not a vegetable, scientifically it is a berry.

I don't know what I'll ever do with this information. I'm not even sure that most of it is interesting.  Except for the fact about the Death Star.  I think that the US should stop spending money on the International Space Station and start plans for a Death Star.
