In 1677, a fossilized bone was illustrated in England. Without the concept of dinosaurs, naturalist Robert Plot eventually thought it belonged to a giant human!
Today, researchers suspect it came from a dinosaur.

Welcome to Cortrodden.
We've all been knocked down at some point. What matters is how we move forward.
This is a community for people rebuilding their lives and helping others do the same.
Nobody should have to rebuild alone.

Your skeleton is constantly rebuilding itself! 🦴
Bones are living tissue. Your body replaces old bone with new bone through a process called bone remodeling.
Much of your skeleton is renewed over roughly 10 years.

⚛️ Did you know a liquid can actually climb uphill?
It sounds impossible, but liquid helium can do exactly that!
When helium-4 is cooled below approximately −271°C (2.17 K), it enters a remarkable state called a superfluid.

Research suggests this process is especially important during sleep, although scientists are still learning how it works in humans.

The Porcupine Dilemma
On a freezing day, porcupines huddled together for warmth. But their quills hurt each other, so they pulled apart.
People aren’t so different. We need connection, but sometimes we hurt each other.
We all need warmth.

One of the best ways to make meaningful connections is to get involved in your community.
Volunteer. Help a neighbor. Show up for someone who needs a hand.
Sometimes the best way to build connections is simply to be there for others.

🐾 Did you know wombats produce cube-shaped poop?
Wombats are the only known animals that produce cube-shaped poop.
Scientists believe the unusual shape comes from the way the material is squeezed through their intestines.

Venus takes about 243 Earth days to complete one rotation, but only 225 Earth days to travel around the Sun.
