  1. Black Holes: The Edge of All We Know. This documentary is a must-watch. It follows the worldwide team that worked together to image the very first black hole, which, in my eyes, is a feat as audacious and beautiful as putting a man on the moon, or a robot on Mars. There's zero chance you won't be inspired after watching this.
  2. Where the “H” in Jesus H. Christ came from.
  3. The country that becomes a racetrack. This is a fascinating time-lapsed look at how all of Monaco transforms every year for the F1 Monaco Grandi Prix.
  4. Adult woman pretended to be a middle schooler for an entire day, and no one noticed.
  5. Handwritten example of Einstein’s famous E=mc² equation sold for $1.2M. There are very few historical artifacts that I’d actually care to own, but this is at the top of that list.
