Now researchers from Australia’s Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization…
An epic tree washed ashore near Washington State’s Olympic National Park. For reference, the woman in the picture stands 6-feet tall. This piece of driftwood is actually termed “drift log”.
Felix Baumgartner, Australian daredevil, successfully jumped from 128,100 feet (24 miles) above the Earth plunging 833.9 MPH (Mach 1.24) to break the sound barrier. Baumgartner rode in a special capsule and wore a 100 pound pressurized flight suit that protected him from the 70 degrees below zero temperature and kept his blood from vaporizing in…
History has been clear that Julius Caesar was killed in the portico of the Theater of Pompey on March 15, 44 B.C. (the Ides of March) as he made his way to a session of the Senate – but the infamous site has never been found. Now according to a new Spanish National Research Council…
A giant “softball-sized” eyeball washed up on a beach in south Florida yesterday, no nobody seems to know what it is. It is presumed to be the eyeball of a giant squid or a whale. Still, pretty freaky.
Gorillas are considered to be highly intelligent. People are considered to be highly intelligent too – at least most of them are. In this video, note how the man handles being charged by a 400lb gorilla – by standing his ground and not flinching (his big balls probably keep him anchored pretty well too).
Researchers from Yale University have found a rocky planet, about 40 light years away from Earth, that is roughly twice the size of Earth and made primarily of granite and diamonds. With a surface temperature of approximately 3,900 degrees Fahrenheit, mining the diamonds is going to be a tough.
SpaceX’s Dragon cargo vessel launch was exciting and the engine flameout added a bit of drama to the historic event. Now we find out that more than an engine was lost in the mission. An Orbcomm communications satellite was riding in the “trunk” of the Falcon 9 rocket. The engine failure forced an early release…
Although Einstein’s theories suggest that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light, two scientists have extended his equations to show what would happen if faster-than-light travel were possible. In effect, they propose that the universe is divided into two worlds – one where everything moves slower than the speed of light and the…

Books from Geek Slop Publishing
Living Truth Bible Study Guides
Despite its beautiful prose, you can’t just read Revelation; it requires diligent study. However, ineffective study techniques can lead to misunderstandings. Rather than imposing strict interpretations on the described events, use the concepts we present as a framework for understanding its intricate code. The Book of Revelation indeed provides more than just a foretelling of the tumultuous end of days. It reassures Christians that divine justice will ultimately triumph over evil and promises Jesus' eventual return as the rightful king of the world.
Chronicles of Enigma
While science and reason often seek to illuminate the unknown, there remains a certain allure in the unexplained—a realm where imagination and reality blur, creating a tapestry rich with wonder and possibility. Stories from the Chronicles of Enigma series endure not just as relics of the past, but as gateways to exploring the depths of our curiosity and the infinite potential of our world. Let us be the light that guides you through the darkness.
