I heard of the "Elephant's Foot" before, but I didn't know it was breaking down, and has lost most of its radioactivity. Interesting!

Isn't it interesting to think about how most of the matter that went into that thing were likely made by merging neutron stars?

The closest thing to a real-world Medusa man has ever created. This is potentially one of the most fascinating objects in the known universe.

The idea is to post one post a day, any day you remember to, to this community.

Whether that is an image, a text post, a link to a song or an article or anything else is up to you.

Crossposting - You may find that your post here could also fit another community, in which case you should crosspost it. However I recommend making the original post in the other community and then crossposting here. Many communities have stricter formatting or content rules, so its best to make sure you are meeting those before making your post.

Rules

  1. Follow the lemmy.zip Code of Conduct
  2. No more than one post a day
  3. No porn
  4. No AI

My goal is to not remove posts. If I do have an issue with a post I will try to reach out to you. The rules may be updated as necessary. I'm open to feedback, feel free to message me.
