Jupiter remains in the evening sky, well placed for observing. Look low in the southwest at dusk for the brightest thing there. Saturn is also in the evening sky. Although it is not as bright as Jupiter, you can find it easily at some distance to the left of Jupiter. Venus and Mars are lost in the Sun’s glare and […]
Between the years 1989 and 2009 the Houston Museum of Natural Science greatly expanded its footprint across the Houston-area, furthering its mission beyond its Hermann Park location in very ambitious ways. The museum’s scope was changing ahead of a new century, because it had too. Just as Houston was evolving, so was the HMNS family, […]
HMNS may be known for its gigantic objects, like towering T. rexes, giant geodes and of course, our 23-ft diameter sculpture, Moon by Luke Jerram. But for every showstopping giant, there are plenty of minute specimens with big scientific value! For example, some of the shells in our newly renovated George W. Strake Hall of […]
Walking into the Cockrell Butterfly Center (CBC), one of the first things you’re likely to notice is the sound of a 50-foot waterfall. The conservatory’s high glass ceiling, forest of lush plants and thousands of fluttering butterflies couldn’t be further removed from the sterile, white walls of a science lab. But just beneath the tropical […]

Do people in Italy get offended if one eat by hands only, no fork or spoon? I am from Bangladesh. People in my country do eat by their hand. I am not boasting about anything, but that is actually have roots in our food culture and cuisine. Here after coming to Italy almost five to six people have come to me and ask me why i eating by my hand using a hand gesture; while i am eating. Is it a... show more I'd ask too. And if I ask you why and you responded you're from Bangladesh, I'd look around and say, I thought this was Italy. You do what is etiquette proper while in other countries.

It's genuinely very complicated in this full of activity life to listen news on TV, thus I only use the web for that purpose, and get the most recent information.

[…] Most Viking costumes involve a horned helmet, but in reality, Viking helmets never had horns, according to the American Museum of Natural History. Instead, these Norse explorers and warriors wore conical leather hats as they raided the European coast from the late 8th to the early 11th century. Fun fact: Vikings were quite clean for the time—they bathed every Saturday. Get more Viking fact vs. fiction here. […]
