The 100 folds in a chef's hat represent 100 ways to cook an egg.
Yes, that tall, pleated white hat that chefs wear — technically called a toque — has 100 folds for a reason! According to Reclutant Gourmet, the pleats used to signify a chef's level of experience, like the number of ways he or she knew how to prepare eggs.
Disclaimer. I had no idea about this and when I found out I got so eggcited. I thought it was an eggs-aggeration.

The fastest and most distant man-made object is a manhole cover that was blasted into space by an underground nuclear test in 1957.
Accelerated by the force of the explosion to around 70 km/second (125,000 miles per hour) it easily exceeded escape velocity, meaning that it basically shot out of Earth orbit. However much of it survived is now reckoned to be somewhere well past Pluto.
For comparison, it's travelling roughly 4x faster than the deliberately launched New Horizons probe that went to Pluto.

"Live". The pictures of Hisashi Ouchi before he died are gruesome.

^ Aww
Life is like a camera: Just
focus
on what's important,
capture
the good times,
develop
from the negatives, and if things don't work out,
take another shot

Yeah I saw the pictures and I now see why no one uses radiation as capital punishment.
The dwarf planet Pluto probably has a subsurface ocean that may be habitable.
Jupiter's moon Ganymede may have more water than Earth, and it is the only known moon to generate its own magnetic field.
The thick atmosphere and weak gravity of Saturn's moon Titan would allow humans to fly with strap-on wings, provided they had thermal protection from the freezing cold and a source of oxygen.
Saturn's small moon Enceladus, thought to be habitable, is leaking water into outer space. The water contributes material to one of Saturn's rings.
