Science Tuesday!
Okay, so this is not about my brethren, and it's not about battles for animal supremacy so I figured I'd just start an actual Science Tuesday Topic.
(And I sort of can't believe I beat Grant to this, which can only mean that it's a hoax or he's found something cooler.)
Octopus snatches coconut and runs
An octopus and its coconut-carrying antics have surprised scientists.
I realize now that what this board needs (aside from a wonderful new redesign, of course) is COCONUT-CARRYING ANTICS. This is what we have been missing the entire time. I don't know about you, but I'm planning on rectifying this immediately.

It is NOT a hoax.
It is an octopus carrying coconuts.
They are very clever.
And I am fighting an urge to allude to Monty Python *right now*.

Hot rock! Good luck Kepler-10b - you might wanna talk to Pluto about this...
NASA's Kepler mission confirmed the discovery of its first rocky planet, named Kepler-10b. Measuring 1.4 times the size of Earth, it is the smallest planet ever discovered outside our solar system.
