At Popular Science, we report and write dozens of science and tech stories every week.

And while a lot of the fun facts we stumble across make it into our articles, there are

a lot of other weird facts that we just keep around the office.

So we figured, why not share those with you?

Welcome to the weirdest thing I learned this week from the editors of Popular Science.

I'm Rachel Fultman.

I'm Mary Beth Griggs.

I'm Tom McNamara.

So on the weirdest thing I learned this week, we start out by each pitching a little negative

information that we picked up while reporting, reading, editing, clicking around on Twitter,

you know, being a journalist.

And then we decide which one we just absolutely have to hear more about right away.

And once we've all spun our little science yarns, we reconvene and vote on what the weirdest

thing we learned this week actually was.

And you can agree or disagree with us on Twitter at weirdest underscore thing.

So Tom, since this is your first time on the show, welcome.

Hello.

Would you like to give your little pitch first?

Yeah, sure thing.

So first let me set the scene.

There's a dead horse floating upside down in the ocean waters off the Bahamas.

Oh my God.
