Interesting Question of the Day – 3 May 2017

There’s a lot less sunlight on Pluto than there is here, but every day, at some point, the amount of sunlight we get is the same as the amount of light Pluto gets at midday.

According to NASA’s Pluto Time website, at what time today will Sydney get the same amount of sunlight as Pluto gets at midday?

Interesting Question of the Day – 8 February 2017

On Monday we found out that you can’t burn calories just by digesting celery.  It doesn’t have “negative calories.”

Ice water, on the other hand, does have negative calories.  It has zero calories and your body will burn calories warming it to body temperature.

If you made no other changes to your diet, how many litres of 3 degree ice water would you have to drink to burn enough calories to lose 1kg of fat?
