Summer Moon Illusion

Science – On Saturday night, step outside at sunset and look around. You'll see a giant moon rising in the east. It looks like Earth's moon with the usual craters and seas, but something's wrong. This full moon is strangely inflated. This weekend's full moon hangs lower in the sky than any other full moon of 2007, so the Moon Illusion is going to be strong.

Welcome to the History of the Universe!

Science – The first cells appeared on Earth about 3.5 billion years ago. These early cells were very similar to the simplest cells we find on Earth today, called bacteria (sometimes called germs). Later bacteria evolved a long twisted whip-like tail called a flagellum. However, a single cell could not keep growing bigger forever and this led to cell division
