If you’re a foodie and into space this news is very exciting.
Astronauts recently were able to grow peppers on the Space Station for the first time. Which they then used to make tacos! I hope it was a Tuesday. I’d love a space taco. Probably beats that other astronaut food.
Not to be outdone Sam Adams has created a new limited-edition beer called Space Craft. They brewed it with hops that orbited the Earth on a SpaceX mission in September.
Space tacos and beer. It doesn’t get much better. Actually… it might. Whoever manages to cook a space pizza first. Challenge is on pizza makers…

These are the things you don’t always think about on a daily basis. Like how much can a big whale eat in a day? Has to be a lot right?
Right. This story has been shared everywhere this week, about how the biggest whales in the world eat about three times more than we originally thought. A single blue whale can consume 20 to 50 MILLION calories a day! For a comparison to humans that’s the equivalent of 80,000 Big Macs. Insane!

Obviously the tradition on Halloween if someone doesn’t have any “treats” is to play a “trick” on them. It’s right there in the name “Trick or Treat”. But this group of trick-or-treaters in the U.K. did something completely different.
They walked up to the front door of an 86-year-old woman who apologized because she didn’t have any candy. But she was really nice to them so instead of doing something cruel to her house they came back later and gave HER some candy. They also gave her a Happy Halloween card and all signed it. So thoughtful!
Now the woman and her family are trying to track down the kids to give them each a gift and say thanks.

This might be the most random mystery I’ve done yet. What is the correct plural word for octopus?
Technically the term is “octopodes,”. More common in everyday conversation are obviously octopuses and octopi. But I like octopodes. It has a great ring to it.
