I have a question for you...
Have you ever, after hearing or reading a science or nature story thought to yourself, that is so cool...?
I am having a lot of those moments lately listening to Quest, Science Friday and my all time favorite Radio Lab. Sometimes I just can't stop thinking about them and they turn into photographs in my head. It's just the way my brain is wired.
I am in awe of the people that work to figure these things out. Take planet hunters - who knew the way to find nearly invisible undiscovered planets was to look for stellar wobbles - that you find the planet by seeing a star "wobble" in the gravitational pull of an orbiting planet. Wow.
So my question is what is the coolest science thing you know?

Not something that you can really take a shot of, but apt for your coffee addiction:
