Here are the most interesting discoveries made by humans during their almost 20-year stay aboard the ISS.
The Earth ceased to be the sole place in the universe that people could call "home" more than twenty years ago. Three men made history on November 2nd, 2000, when they became the first people to live outside of Earth. On the International Space Station (ISS), which had been launched two years earlier, Russians Yuri Gidzenko and Sergei Krikalev and Americans William Shepherd orbited the planet for 141 days. As of this writing in November 2020, 241 people from 19 different countries were living on the ISS.

10 prehistoric marine animals that look like monsters
The modern ocean is full of barracudas and sharks, and Cthulhu may also exist, which is obviously a terrifying place. But these deep-sea creatures discovered in recent times have no close connection to the behemoth monsters that once roamed the prehistoric ocean; for example: giant sea lizards, monster sharks or even "super carnivorous whales". In front of these marine creatures, human beings are much smaller.

Living through Ian. Top Story - October 2022.
My home is on Fort Myers Beach but I rode out the storm at my daughter's place in north Fort Myers. I am devastated, grateful beyond words, distraught, happy, sickened, relieved and overwhelmed. We lost so much and we have so much left. Time stands still, and time rushes by. The rollercoaster of emotions rocks you into sleep and back out. We are out of homes and jobs, but we are ALIVE. Barring a couple of acquaintances, everyone has checked in safe and ALIVE. Hence, the happy part. Many cannot say the same. Thinking of those that were not as lucky is the crippling sadness part. So many lives forever changed. So many lost. Lifetimes of treasures and keepsakes gone forever. For tens of thousands of people, memories are all that remain. For thousands of people, anticipation of happy news and fear of bad news still dominates their every thought. There is a strange mixture of hope and rebirth constantly overshadowed by fear, grief and uncertainty. It makes me feel guilty to feel happy and grateful, knowing how many don't get to feel that way right now.
