    On a related note, a liter of water contains 600 times more oxygen than a liter of pure oxygen.

    Education is extremely important.

      On another related note, the fact that water expands when frozen, and thus floats in unfrozen water, is one of the many accidents of physics that was necessary for the formation of life on Earth. I can't remember why, but I'm sure we can all use an LLM for more details.

      Education is extremely important.

                        Only 42 years separate the first solo plane going across the Atlantic non stop until man landed on the moon.

                                  @Renauda Very cool and interesting article. A whole "environment" born, lives and dies on the dead whale.

                                  I remember as a kid having a "debate" about whether the earth could just be some kids science project and we dont know it.

                                      We used to think. Maybe he is on school holiday right now. What will happen when he comes back and the project is over?

                                        In the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, the Earth is a supercomputer custom designed to calculate something specific, i.e., a "science project."
