Chances are, you haven’t yet made your plans for Valentine’s day 2046. But just in case you’re thinking about it, you may want to make sure you spend the day indoors.

This demure bird has the brightest feathers ever measured
In the clear light of day, the Eurasian woodcock doesn’t stand out. Reddish brown feathers help the bird blend in with forest underbrush to avoid predators. But at dawn and dusk, when males of the species swoop and dart in the pale luminance to attract a mate, they really shine. Now, researchers say their stark white tail feathers are the brightest plumage ever measured on a bird. The backends of the small birds ( Scolopax rusticola ) sport highly reflective white tips that are only visible from beneath during flight (pictured above) or when males fan their tail feathers on the ground as part of mating display...

Mayo Clinic Q and A:  Most eye floaters caused by age-related changes
DEAR MAYO CLINIC: My dad mentioned to me that he has several dark spots and cobweblike strings that interfere with his vision. Is this something to be concerned about? What is needed to fix this condition? ANSWER: Dark spots, such as those you describe, may be eye floaters. These black or gray specks, strings, or cobwebs typically drift about when you move your eyes and appear to dart away when you look at them directly. They may…

NASA Tried To Knock an Asteroid Off Course —And Succeeded Wildly Beyond Expectations
The mission managers at NASA spent $330 million to send a refrigerator-sized spacecraft 7 million miles (11 million km) into space and punch an asteroid in the nose. And we should all be very glad they did, because today the Earth feels a little bit safer than it did yesterday. The spacecraft, known as DART (for Double Asteroid Redirection Test), was launched last November, and its sole job was to fly out to the small, 160 m (525 ft.) asteroid Dimorphos, and crash into it at at 22,500 k/h (14,000 mph). Dimorphos is a moonlet of the larger, 780 m (2,560 ft) asteroid Didymos, making one revolution around its parent rock ever...
