Well folks, I have some exciting news from NASA to share with you today. You may have heard Joel and I talking about this on our What’s Trending segment this morning, according to a recent report from NDTV, NASA is setting its sights on building houses on the moon by the year 2040. Yes, you heard that right! This ambitious housing development project is aptly named “Project Olympus,” and it’s truly out of this world. NASA has some groundbreaking plans to make these lunar homes a reality.

So, how do you build houses on the moon? Well, NASA plans to use a concrete-like substance made entirely from moon dust, rocks, and minerals. It’s an innovative approach that could pave the way for sustainable living beyond our planet.

But wait, there’s more! NASA isn’t wasting any time. They’re sending astronauts back to the moon as soon as 2024 with the Artemis 2 mission. It’s all part of their broader efforts to explore and eventually colonize Earth’s celestial neighbor.

So, mark your calendars, space enthusiasts. By 2040, we might just have our first moon houses! It’s an exciting time for space exploration and a glimpse into the future of human habitation beyond our own planet.   And speaking of the future, NASA’s Project Olympus isn’t just about houses; it’s a stepping stone towards establishing a sustainable presence on the moon. This could open doors for scientific research, resource utilization, and even serve as a launchpad for future missions to Mars and beyond.

That’s all for now, but stay tuned for more updates on this lunar adventure.  We’ll keep you posted on all the latest developments. Until then, keep your eyes on the stars, and who knows, maybe one day, you’ll be living on the moon!

Thanks for reading and have a stellar day! -Maryann Morgan

Best Haunted Houses in America

‘Tis the season for haunted houses in America. I love the spooky season, even though I’m more of a spring girl. I actually wish Halloween fell in the spring. But, fall is a good time for all things haunted. America has some incredible haunted attractions. Getting scared is definitely an American thing. So, what are the best haunted houses in America?

What’s neat about haunted houses is that they are popular across American, not just in one part of the country. In a sense, a love for Halloween and spooky things brings Americans together. Often, folks overseas haven’t celebrated Halloween much until recently, though. In fact, I was shocked to learn that my friends in Europe have never heard of or tried candy corn. What’s wrong with this world?

Even though Europeans may not be as familiar with Halloween, or at least the Europeans I know, it’s worth noting that Borley Rectory, in England, was widely considered the most haunted house in the world. “This particular rectory was built on the same site as a Cistercian priory perhaps several hundred years older in what is now Borley, Essex, United Kingdom,” according to Skeptoid.com. Is it still haunted today? Who really knows, right?

When it comes to haunted houses in America, different outlets have their favorite picks. I’ve decided to do some research and pick five must-see haunted attractions across the U.S. that I think you should visit this year. I picked a selection of haunted attractions geographically across the country, so hopefully you live near one. I would love to visit all of these at some point, but truth be told, I’m easily scared, so maybe I’m best to try kiddie haunted houses. Reach out to me with your favorite haunted houses and attractions across America here.
