Favorite Science Facts, List Yours

An orbweb spider spins a web up to 12 feet wide, to catch birds.

And speaking of spiderwebs, a bug slamming into a spiderweb creates the same amount of force by weight, as a fighter jet snagging the safety cable when landing on an aircraft carrier.

By its strength to weight ratio, a strand of spider silk is stronger than a steel cable.

So that's the idea. List your favorite science facts and it can be anything. Physics, botany, biology, geology, astronomy, math, computer science, anything. Have fun.

Water is the only substance that exists in all three forms: Gaseous, Liquid, and solid, in nature.

A black hole is so dense, not event light can escape if it passes through the event horizon.
