I really do love what random and interesting things come out of these chats! Here is (some of) what I learnt this week:
1. There are fluorescent minerals in some rocks which emit spectacular colours when under UV light. Do a Google search for 'UV rocks' for fascinating images!
2. 'The Greenway' is the name of a walking/cycle track in Spain, Ireland and Canada!
3. Antarctica operates across more than one time zone. Bases and research stations use the time zone that corresponds to their home country, country that supplies them, or the country nearest to them.
I'm looking forward to hearing what unusual facts come up this week!
