Extreme sensory deprivation has the same effect on the mind as LSD

 

Earth’s upper atmosphere—below freezing, nearly without oxygen, flooded by UV radiation—is no place to live. But last winter, scientists from the Georgia Institute of Technology discovered that billions of bacteria actually thrive up there. Expecting only a smattering of microorganisms, the researchers flew six miles above Earth’s surface in a NASA jet plane. There, they pumped outside air through a filter to collect particles. Back on the ground, they tallied the organisms, and the count was staggering: 20 percent of what they had assumed to be just dust or other particles was alive. Earth, it seems, is surrounded by a bubble of bacteria.

Interesting fact that I learned whilst researching something for a paper:

The letter "J" was the last letter to be added to our alphabet. An Italian Renaissance grammarian, Gian Giorgio Trissino, made the "I" and the "J" two distinct sounds in 1524, but it wasn't until 1729 that it was accepted as a capital letter, along with the letter "U".

Who knew the letters in our alphabet had such interesting histories?
