Science Fact

Our oldest radio broadcasts of the 1930s have already travelled past 100,000 stars.

Weird Science

Laughing can kill you? Fatal hilarity is death as a result of laughing too hard. In the third century B.C. the Greek philosopher Chrysippus died from laughter after watching a donkey eat a fig (yeah, we don't get it either). A recent case occurred in 1975 when Alex Mitchell, a 50-year-old bricklayer in England, died after watching a television show called The Goodies. Alex laughed for over 25 minutes until he finally collapsed on the couch from heart failure. His wife later sent a letter to the TV show thanking them for making his last moments of life so pleasant.

Graffiti !!!

We hear it time and time again. Reeko, you talk to much. Why can't we talk back? Well now you can. Reeko's Message Board let you ask science and experiments questions, post interesting science news, slap up some graffiti, or just yak with your buddies.

Track Reeko!

Using new RFID technology, you can now track Reeko as he moves about the lab! The "blip" is Reeko and will move from room to room as Reeko moves about the lab (he moves from room to room every couple of minutes or so). Hover over the map below for details on each of the rooms in the lab..

Did U Know?

Koalas sleep an average of 22 hours a day, two hours more than the sloth and four more hours than your dad (ask him about the extra sleeping hours he gets at work).

Lab Reports

Lab Monkey Report We are cranking out experiments for the little scientists as fast as we can and have rolled out several new (advanced) experiments during the past two weeks. Still, Reeko will not increase of banana quota to more than 12 bananas per day which we feel is highly unfair. The rats are fed several times a day and being the superior species, we feel we deserve as many bananas as we want. Reeko says the potassium in the bananas causes a chemical overload in our brains which results in us repeating ourselves over and over again. We of course, know that is not true. We of course, know that is not true.

Lab Rat Report There have been some strange noises coming out of Top Secret Section F. As usual, the monkeys won’t tell us what is going on but we heard them talking about some sort of "row bat" that Reeko is working on. We listened at the doorway and hear clanking noises coming from inside and see very bright lights flashing from under the door. Sometimes we hear Reeko talking to himself. Stay tuned – something big is coming!

Lab Cat Report Zzzzzzz.....

Wisecracks

Lend only dry pens (pens that are out of ink) to people who ask to borrow one. Eventually they'll leave you alone altogether.

Real time World stats can be eye opening. What you are seeing below are real time statistical counters demonstrating the growth (and reduction) in world statistics as they occur. Counters begin at zero when this page is loaded and will grow real time. For instance, the number you see under U.S. Births is the number of births that have occurred in the United States since you loaded this page. Hover over the stat title for an explanation of the statistic.

Seeded (start) values are based on numerics derived from various government and research related organizations (e.g. World Health Organization, United States Census) and algorithms used in the calculations are based on up-to-date growth ratios and historical data.
