The internet recalled a study in which scientists proved that a cat's slow blinking is nothing but a trusting smile on their part. This life hack works both ways: if you want to approach a street or house cat, you should just narrow your eyes and blink slowly. Then even the most independent cat will reciprocate and let you pet them.

China Plans Giant Space Solar Station

China plans to build a giant solar station in space, which will be more efficient than any energy source on Earth. It is expected that the station will be located in a reserved zone at an altitude of 36,000 km, with the collected energy being sent to Earth in the form of microwaves. No specific implementation date is mentioned, but they aim to complete it by 2050.

Yet there are advantages: a peaceful pace of life and the opportunity to learn skills you have not had the chance to use before.
