On Wednesday, an international team of researchers unveiled the fossilized remains of an ancient relative of the sea cucumber. It had 45 tentacles and lurked at the bottom of the seas some 430 million years ago.

They’ve dubbed it Sollasina cthulhu, after the tentacled Great Old One of H.P. Lovecraft’s weird tales, a study published in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B said.

Unlike the massive Cthulhu of fiction, the creature unveiled by scientists this week was quite tiny, with the fossil measuring just about an inch across.

Mizar flying car

Convinced that man should be able to fly just as easily as drive a car, inventor Henry Smolinski strapped the wings and tail of a Cessna aircraft to a Ford Pinto. During a 1973 test flight in California, the Pinto broke free from its contraption and plunged to the earth, killing both Smolinski and his passenger.

This is reportedly the iceberg that the Titanic hit. Photo was taken by a passenger on the Carpathia, the first ship on the scene after the Titanic sank

Milton Hershey, the man who invented the famed Hershey's Milk Chocolate Bar, wrote a $300 check to reserve his stateroom on the RMS Titanic. Thankfully, business took precedence, and Hershey and his wife missed out on the excursion.

BTW, that $300 would equate to about $7800 in today's money.
