A teenager contacted NASA because he
found a mistake in their International
Space Station data. When STEM students
in the UK were given ISS data to review,
17-year-old Miles Solomon noticed a
mistake in the radiation levels and wrote
NASA an email to alert them. They
reviewed his graphs, and when they
recruited him to further analyze more
of their data, he discovered a daily
recurring error in their system. Source Source 2 Source 3

Archaeologists reconstructed this face
from a 700-year-old skeleton. Found
buried face down in a medieval cemetery,
‘Context 958’ was over 40 when he died
and lived a hard, working-class life. Since
most historical records are about the rich
or famous, skeletons like his are one of
the only ways to learn about how
the ordinary lived. Source Source 2
