... that even though about 100,000 mines were laid in Le Touquet during World War II, making it the most mined city in France, it was the first resort in northern France to open its beaches after the liberation?
... that for his first recital as the organist of the restored Frauenkirche in Dresden, Samuel Kummer chose music by Bach, Brahms, and himself?
A peanut, also known as a groundnut, is the fruit of Arachis hypogaea, a plant in the family Fabaceae. The peanut is classed as a grain legume rather than as a botanical nut, although in culinary and colloquial use it is generally treated as one. Uses of peanuts include consumption as a snack and in various dishes, peanut butter, and – due to its high oil content – as a vegetable oil. Peanuts cause allergic reactions in some humans. Clockwise from top left, this photograph shows a peanut with its shell cracked open, a whole unshelled peanut, an unpeeled peanut seed, a halved peeled seed, and a whole peeled seed. This picture was focus-stacked from 31 separate images.Photograph credit: Ivar Leidus

Mars can be seen next to Earth.
At first I thought it was aurora borealis, but it's actually our Sun brimming with solar activity.
And here we always thought a black hole was an invisible orb floating in space that would vacuum us into another dimension or wormhole us to another galaxy. Thanks Hollywood...
Eye of God.
Infrared Eye of God.
Pillars of creation, but I like to call it the claw of destiny...
Flying Bat and Squid nebulae.

Still frame from upcoming Star Trek film depicting disruptor fire from Klingon warbird to Federation outpost. The bunker glows red-hot just before it explodes. Gotcha again! You're so gullible! It's actually lasers from Starfire Optical Range.
Crookes radiometer with vanes sealed in partial vacuum that react to a light source.
The filament (normally protected in a vacuum of inert gas) has been exposed to oxygenated air by a breach in the bulb allowing it to burn up when turned on.
The knight's chessboard tour
3 suns of Tatooine as seen in the new Star Wars TV series. Fooled ya again! Tatooine has only 2 suns. This is an atmospheric optical illusion.
Now I know why they call them "hooters". Look at that "owl face". lol
This is here to remind me I found out art is more interesting than I thought when I happened to notice the author had painted her since early youth, and it was a somewhat common practice to do so. Seeing the development of these ladies portrayed by these artists reminds me of popular age progression videos. The evolution of copy culture is here...
Put Googly eyes on anything to make it come alive!
Legend has it a chess champion noticed the distraught mortal is only one move away from winning in spite of the smirky devil holding many more pieces.
Just because I'm a fan of anything related to Hannibal Lecter.
The file name translates to Swamp-Smiley in English.
Hand painting circa early 2000's on entrance to primitive communal public toilets. This penis shaped figure and other overtly sexual depictions of female genitalia were frequently displayed in this manner during the period. It was a barbaric and hedonistic age so it is believed the paintings may be representations or symbols of the many gods they worshipped which might have included phallic and fertility god worship. It is also believed the privacy features built into the public lavatory may have been included so patrons could also use the time as a private place of reflection or prayer to these gods as they paid tribute to them with their devotional paintings in a sacred ritual known as the Bathroom Graffiti.{{cetacean needed}}
