This is Halloween
There was a pumpkin carving contest and a best costume contest at my work place today. Even though I work from home I was able to browse the winning pumpkin and it was a really nicely cut Death Star! I was thinking wow how did they come up with such an idea, but I was suspicious so I Googled it and realized the Death Star’s already been carved by lots of people…lol. They didn’t deserve to win.
Anyway I was looking at this site and saw some of the most amazing carvings I’ve seen, including the Death Star.
Also today I came across this animal species called “water bear”, and was amazed. It’s a real “animal” that is just 1mm in size, but it can survive extreme environment like, 1xx degree Celsius hot, -257 degree Celsius cold…able to live in vacuum space, and can survive without water for 10 years…etc. This thing really “can’t die”. I wonder what it is and why us human aren’t even close to the toughness of these 1mm creature… Here is a link to the wiki, and another link for more info/images. There is even a video available that shows how it “walks“.
