Monday Facts Again

 

Hello all, here I am at another Monday doing more useless facts post for everyone.

The Death's-head Moth is Britain's largest moth, has an unusual fondness for honey. It has developed a little squeak that it uses to let bees know it is about to enter their hive. This must work as the bees let the moth come in and stuff its face without getting pissed off.

Air becomes liquid at about minus 190 degrees Celsius, liquid air looks like water with a bluish tint.

In 1940, forecasting the relentless march of science the “Popular Mechanics” magazine said computers in the future may weigh no more then one & half AgAtons..........how wrong were they.

The word “uncopyrightable” is the only 15 letter word that is spelled without repeating a letter.

The word “facetious” contains all the vowels in the correct order.
