Many of you sitting behind your screens have long forgotten what it's like to fall asleep in a science class only to be awakened by a teacher asking you to explain a principle of Newtonian mechanics in front of the whole class.
The truth is, not many of us have given physics, chemistry, or cosmology a chance to actually learn to like them. Equally few have the brain, willpower, or patience to have done so. Luckily, there are no science tests anymore and we can finally sit back, relax and enjoy the most entertaining part of it.
The Facebook group titled “The Lighter Side Of Science” is a perfect source of it, sharing anything “from bizarre science discoveries and experiments to weird and unusual creatures, scientific studies, theories and much more.”
Boasting 691.3K members, the community is growing strong as it joins people who share the fascination with science into one bunch of a family. Scroll down for the most interesting posts shared on the group!
