== Special Star Shape == If other beings drew their sun its shape would probably be different than our's like a bulging teardrop. The sun was found 1,600 light years away from Earth, in solar system HD 74423 with two suns, the teardrop sun is the bigger one. The sun up close is like boiling blisters, and the is the sun's more variable, liquid side.Since the two suns are so close to each other when they orbit one of the sun's gravitational pull (the smaller one) stretched out the bigger one to form the persistent teardrop shape . The sun and solar system was found by two volunteer citizens scientists and they were -Robert Gagliano and Tom Jacobs- who noticed anomalous flickers in the solar system when the sun was growing, shrinking and, turning. The teardrop sun is a new finding that has its shape thanks to the smaller sun orbiting beside it and there could be more findings like this one.

== World's First Crafters == Neanderthals are something that we never suspected to be able to do things like knit for fun ever day,but science proved us wrong yet again. Studies in "Scientific reports" suggest that Neanderthals made an ancient type of yarn from plants from 41,000 to 52,000 years ago in parts of Europe. Scientists found a six-millimeter-long cord fragment part a net or bag with twisted fibers,three bundles of them. Neanderthals must have had great observation skills because they would know what plants to harvest to make the plant crafted yarn. Scientists are still unsure about which species made the yarn but they know it was some kind of Neanderthal. In conclusion Neanderthals are smarter than people give them credit for and people had no evidence they were stupid but they were not as advanced as us for sure.

== Micro Meteor Eaters == There are certain bugs named " Microbe bugs " that could prove the existence of aliens because they are way too odd to fit in with regular bugs and have strange ways of living. These tiny microbes are a separate kingdom from us known as the " Archea ". The microbes are found in very hot and salty pools of water that would be lethal to most organisms and they like the hot acid to be about 16 degrees Fahrenheit. They are the only organisms that can survive the cold vacuum of space and can be found on meteorites. A microbes' diet is weird because its diet consists of ripping out electrons from the metals it eats, like the iron in meteorites. Nickel sulfate is a crystalline inorganic compound that produces toxic gases upon heating and is colored yellow, green or blue. It's used in electroplating and as a chemical intermediate to produce other nickel compounds, and it is also what it poops. Everything about the Microbes is very weird and strange, and there are a lot of reasons why I think these bugs are aliens, these things are too weird to be a normal bug and it has to be something more to this strange and fascinating organism.
