🌪️ Ever wondered how tornadoes form? It all starts when warm, wet air crashes into cool, dry air during a big thunderstorm. The different winds begin to spin and twist faster and faster, creating a giant swirling funnel cloud. When that spinning funnel touches the ground, it becomes a tornado! 🌧️💨

Ever just hear what you want to hear 👂🏿? We hear ya, it is actually a vital skill we have to avoid overwhelming ourselves with our surroundings. When our ears send sound signals 🎶 to our brain, our brain gives those sounds meaning 🧠. These meanings help the brain determine what information we hear and what we filter out 🔇. For example, if you are hearing about a topic you care about, your brain assigns higher priority to these sounds, which allows you to hear it 🔊. Often referred to as the "cocktail party effect" 🍸 because of how you can zero in on a conversation when at a crowded party 🥳.

Music is like a playground for your brain! 🎵 It can make you dance, feel happy, calm down, or remember special moments. Your brain loves patterns and beats, so songs light up different brain parts at once. Long ago, humans even used music to bond, celebrate, and tell stories together.

Among the fastest birds out there, the hummingbird has a special flight pattern that allows it to hover like a helicopter rotor 🚁. Sometimes referred to as "living helicopters", hummingbirds can reach up to 48 km/h and flap their wings in a figure-eight pattern ♾️. This unique wing flapping allows them to fly backwards and hover when they feel like it ⏮️.

If we had a colossal sized bathtub 🛁, filled it up with water 🌊 and put Saturn 🪐 in it, the planet would actually float! This is because Saturn 🪐 is composed mainly of hydrogen and helium with an average density of 0.687g/cm³. Compared to water with a density of 1.00 g/cm³, Saturn's 🪐 composition has a lower density so it would, in fact, float in water 🌊!

On mountains⛰️, on airplanes ✈️ and on skyscrapers 🏢; rainbows will actually appear as full circles 🍭! We typically see them as arcs 🌈or semi-circles because we are too close to the ground, causing the Earth to cut off our view from the rest of the circle 🏳️‍🌈!
