Man, this might get the anxiety flowing for anyone out there that ever did something similar to this as a kid. It's funny and unfortunate that as kids we're all just led along, sometimes down the wrong routes, due to our overwhelming curiosity. The lesson here is obviously to not stare at the sun! And if you have any kids, make sure they're not doing something similar to this!

This quick Tumblr post shows just how quickly those dumb questions we type into Google can quickly spiral out of control. At least we don't actually have tons of moths trying to fly into the sun everyday. That'd be sad. Very sad. Check out some more gold from Tumblr with this Tumblr thread that provides an extreme analysis of the Ratatouille timeline.

With the summer ending, we have decided to celebrate the warmth one more time with a whole lotta kitties chilling in the sun. 'Sunshine babies' is what my friend likes to call them. Adorable little beings finding the warmest spot to soak up the relaxing energy of the sun. It doesn't matter where it is, whether on a pile of books on your desk, next to one of your windows, or if it's just one line of sun across your sheets, they'll find it, and they'll make the best of it.

They're the cuddliest when they're sunbathing. It's one of the best times to come to them and gently hug them and press our noses into their warm fur. And everyone loves cuddling calm kittens - adults, other cats, and even babies. So, let your heart warm by enjoying these gorgeous cats in the sunshine and have an incredible day!

Happy Sunday, everyone! 

We all are aware (but really don't want to think about it), tomorrow is Monday. And with Monday comes a brand new week we must face. 

So take some advice from these animals who have really figured out this thing called life, and take a giant nap to recharge your batteries.

Trust us, you'll be thankful you did. 

NASA is at it again. This time they are looking toward the Sun and examining regions of it that have not been seen up close up until now. But they're not alone either. NASA and the European Space Agency (ESA) have joined forces to potentially change our understanding of the Sun and how it affects Earth. The goal of the 7-year mission is to launch a satellite to orbit the Sun and take pictures of the Sun's poles for the first time in history. 

A group of international researchers and scientists have shed light on one of the central mysteries of solar physics: how energy and heat from the Sun is transferred to the Sun's upper atmosphere, heating it to more than 1 million degrees Farenheit - temperatures that are hotter than the Sun's surface. 

With new images taken in granular detail by the New Jersey Institute of Technology's Big Bear Solar Observatory (BBSO), the researchers discovered that jets of magnetized plasma (spicules) spurt like geysers from the sun's upper atmosphere into the corona (the outermost part of the Sun's atmosphere). These spicules are between 125 and 310 miles wide and erupt continuously across the Sun's surface. Images of the jets also shows how they are made and the paths they travel (at 62 miles per second).

The corona is invisible to the human eye and the source of the mechanisms has been a confounding mystery for astrophysicists - until now. The GIFs below show granular details of the new images taken by the Big Bear Solar Observatory. 

Cars have been around for over a hundred years. You'd think we would have figured out parking etiquette by now, but evidently we have not. Seriously, there's stories of people leaving fake notes to get back at selfish parkers, and other stories of people wasting someone's time for parking illegally. It seems like when it comes to parking, half of us think there's a code while for the rest it's just the law of the jungle.
