Voyager 1 is out there living the ultimate road trip dream — it’s been on the move for nearly 48 years since it launched way back on September 5, 1977. Right now, it’s chilling about 22.3 light-hours from Earth, which translates to a jaw-dropping 24 billion kilometers (15 billion miles) away. And get this: it’s still zipping through space at a mind-blowing speed of around 61,000 km/h (38,000 mph). Talk about never hitting traffic!

If all stays on track, Voyager 1 will reach a wild new milestone around November 15, 2026, when it’ll be one full light-day away from Earth — roughly 25.9 billion kilometers (16 billion miles) out. That means even a beam of light, the Usain Bolt of the universe, would need a whole 24 hours just to catch up with it.

Pretty cool to think that this little spacecraft, which was built with ‘70s tech and has less computing power than a modern smartwatch, is still out there, rocketing into interstellar space and carrying that golden record mixtape for any curious aliens it might meet. Not bad for something older than the first Star Wars movie!

Sweden has successfully tested an AI-powered Gripen E fighter jet that flies and fights without a pilot. Part of “Project Beyond” by Saab and Helsing, the jet’s advanced AI system, Centaur, completed complex missions including a simulated dogfight against a manned aircraft over the Baltic Sea, marking a bold step into the future of autonomous aerial combat.

When scientists dissected this 80,000-pound whale, they missed a vital step. It came at a major cost.

More than 26 years after its death, the skeleton of a young blue whale named KOBO continues to leak oil — an unusual yet fascinating phenomenon on display at the New Bedford Whaling Museum in Massachusetts.

KOBO, short for "King of the Blue Ocean," was accidentally struck and killed by a freighter in 1998 and has been hanging in the museum since 2000.

The whale’s bones, rich in energy-dense oil stored in the marrow, were never fully processed to remove their contents. As a result, oil still drips slowly from the massive skeleton, with catchers in place collecting about 1.2 liters so far.

This slow release is a vivid reminder of how different whale biology is from our own—and how unprocessed remains can continue to change long after death. Historically, whale oil from baleen whales like KOBO played a vital role in warfare and industry, from treating trench foot to producing nitroglycerin for explosives.

While the dripping oil today serves no such purpose, it fascinates museum visitors and provides a unique lens into the history of whaling, marine biology, and chemistry. Just be careful where you stand—KOBO might still leave a mark.

Tehran Moments Before Ceasefire: Heavy Bombardment Over the Capital This was the scene over Tehran just hours before the ceasefire between Israel and Iran officially began. Military aircraft were spotted above the city as intense Israeli airstrikes targeted strategic regime and military sites, particularly in eastern and northern districts. Dozens of missiles rained down on IRGC bases, missile launchers, and suspected nuclear-related facilities, marking one of the heaviest bombardments of the war. The roar of jets and the flashes of explosions lit up the sky in what may be remembered as the climactic moment of the conflict.

A viral video circulating on social media has sparked concern after it allegedly showed a passenger attempting to steal a life jacket during an IndiGo flight. The clip, shared widely on Instagram by the handle travel.instaagram, shows a fellow passenger confronting the individual and retrieving the jacket from their bag. The incident quickly gained traction online, with users criticizing the act and calling it a "train-like mentality in the skies." Many expressed concern over flight safety, noting that tampering with safety equipment is a serious violation under aviation rules. As of now, IndiGo has not released any official statement regarding the incident. The flight number, route, and the date of the event remain unverified, and there is no confirmation from the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA). Though the video is real and has sparked widespread online debate, the airline's involvement is yet to be officially confirmed. The viral nature of the clip has nonetheless raised awareness about the importance of respecting aviation safety protocols.

Note: Removing or tampering with safety equipment such as life jackets is considered a punishable offense under Indian aviation regulations.
