While putting together the October issue, I learned lots of wacky, fun facts. One of them involved sticky rice, avocado, and an extreme liftoff. Check out this awesome video about a sushi roll that launched into space!
For more strange and true freaky foods, don’t miss out Weird Zone in the October issue, available soon!

Former OWL editor Craig sent me this awesome space video! Every frame is a photograph taken from the International Space Station.
I’ve never seen space from this angle before. Very cool!
Speaking of space, did anyone see or read about NASA’s Mars science rover, Curiosity, landing on a crater? Curiosity carries 10 instruments, a rock-zapping laser, and an organic chemistry lab. It will hunt for the basic ingredients of life, like nitrogen, phosphorus, and oxygen. Can’t wait to see what Curiosity uncovers!
If you had the chance to travel in space, would you?

In the June issue, Weird Zone includes Strange and True Olympic Oddities related to the London 2012 games.
One of my favourites is “Pull Up a Chair.” A British artist named Neville Gabie atttempted to sit in all 69,000 seats in London’s Olympic Stadium. He ended up sitting in approximately 40,000 of them in about 69 hours.
Here’s Neville’s video.
What do you think of this video? Do you think it’s art? Is it entertaining? Would you do it? I totally would! I think it would be exhausting, and I would definitely need plenty of snack breaks, but I would still do it.
Check out more Weird Zone: Strange and True Olympic Oddities in the June issue of OWL.
