Church of San Michele in Anacapri, Italy

May 29, 2024

The Church of San Michele, completed in 1727, is a sanctuary of Neapolitan Baroque art. The altar is an elaborate marble structure crafted by Agostino Chirola, and above it is a dramatic depiction of St. Michael the Archangel by Nicola Malinconico. But the most striking feature of the church is its floor, which is covered in a stunningly detailed mosaic by Leonardo Chiaiese called The Expulsion of Adam and Eve. The titular event takes place in the center of...

Chickasha Leg Lamp in Chickasha, Oklahoma

May 29, 2024

In the 1983 classic A Christmas Story, chaos breaks out in the family when Mr. Parker, the narrator’s father, receives an enormous lamp fashioned to look like a fishnet-clad leg balanced on a stiletto. More than a generation later, in November 2022, the small town of Chickasha, Oklahoma, erected a 40-foot-tall replica of the famous lamp, which rests atop a 10-foot-tall box marked “FRAGILE,” or as Mr. Parker says in the film, “Fra-gee-lay! It must be Italian.” So how did this...

Stellafane Observatory in Springfield, Vermont

May 29, 2024

Stellafane is the home of the Springfield Telescope Makers, the oldest and most active telescope-making club in the world. The club was founded by the brilliant polymath Russell W. Porter in 1920, and the pink clubhouse was built at this Vermont site in 1923.

Plate Tectonics Has a Surprise Silver Lining

May 29, 2024

I imagine that exceedingly few people like to be unexpectedly jostled about by an earthquake. Whether you’re in an area known to be frequented by modestly powerful temblors, or whether you’re chilling out somewhere that isn’t especially prone to them—say, New York or New Jersey—it can be a disquieting experience. Earthquakes are also famously destructive: If they strike in just the right place, with sufficient shaking, they can ruin villages, towns, even cities and, should they trigger a tsunami,...

Meet The Black Cowboys Who Shaped Colorado...

May 29, 2024

Willie Kennard wasn’t sure what to expect when he walked into the saloon across the street. He knew just two things: One, there was a wanted murderer inside. And, two, it was his job to arrest the man. The year was 1874. Kennard had just ridden into Yankee Hill, Colorado—a small mining outpost near modern-day Idaho Springs—to inquire about a job posting for town marshall.

May 28, 2024

While many in the United States marveled at the powerful aurora borealis in mid-May, scientists were watching the event anxiously and trying to work fast. They needed to notify a lot of people to hunker down and prepare for potential damage, even danger, that was coming. They had to ensure power grids wouldn’t surge. They needed to protect satellites.
