In 1997, a team of engineers hid an entire flight simulator inside the code of Microsoft Excel as an unlisted “Easter egg” — and to this day, it remains one of the most sophisticated pieces of hidden software ever secretly shipped to millions of corporate computers

In 1843, Ada Lovelace described a brass-and-punched-card engine that could act on symbols as well as numbers, even composing music if harmony could be reduced to rules, inside seven translator’s notes three times longer than the paper itself

Adults who find it physically painful to ask for help, even when they are completely overwhelmed, usually aren’t proud — they are people who realized at an early age that relying on others resulted in disappointment, so they built a hyper-independence to ensure they would never be at the mercy of someone else’s reliability again

When Bell Labs engineer Karl Jansky pointed a rotating antenna at the sky in 1932 looking for sources of transatlantic radio static, he kept picking up a faint hiss that peaked every 23 hours and 56 minutes, and he eventually realized he had become the first human to hear the center of the Milky Way.

In 1901, sponge divers off the Greek island of Antikythera pulled a corroded lump of bronze out of a Roman shipwreck, and it sat in an Athens museum for half a century before anyone realised they had found a 2,000-year-old computer that could predict eclipses 19 years in advance.

At Kyoto University’s Seto Marine Biological Laboratory on the Shirahama coast, biologist Shin Kubota has watched the same Turritopsis dohrnii jellyfish die and un-die so many times in his tank that he has started writing karaoke songs about an animal that, for all practical purposes, just refuses to stay dead.
