While he will always be known as Spock, the late Leonard Nimoy was talented in many other ways that didn’t involve space travel. One of the actor’s most interesting and provocative works, for instance, is his 2007 photo collection entitled “The Full Body Project.” Featuring mostly nudes, the series celebrates female beauty by highlighting subjects that do not often conform to the tradition standards of beauty set by Hollywood.

Scroll through to see some of his work, but there are a lot of naked women here so, you know, it’s pretty NSFW.

Only 3 objects have ever been found inside the Great Pyramid. One of them vanished for a century.

For centuries, the Great Pyramid of Giza has guarded its secrets with stony silence. While the exterior is iconic, the interior remains largely a void.

In fact, throughout history, only three man-made objects have ever been recovered from inside the chambers of the ancient wonder.

A simple misconception keeps young people feeling lonely. Here's how to break out of it.

Perhaps it's a little ironic that technology connects all of us faster and more conveniently than ever, and yet so many feel more isolated and alone. There's a mental health crisis facing young people, and besides medication, the solution seems daunting.

Researchers at Stanford uncovered that there are two different types of students attending the University: what they think of one another, and who they actually are. In what they describe as the "empathy perception gap," people believe their peers are a bit colder and less friendly. It turns out their fellows are far kinder and more empathetic than expected.

10 boys and 10 girls were left alone in separate houses. The results were shockingly different.

It sounds like the plot of William Golding's Lord of the Flies, but in the mid-2000s, it was a very real, and very controversial, reality television experiment. Footage from the UK Channel 4 documentary "Boys and Girls Alone" is captivating audiences all over again, offering a fascinating—and chaotic—look at what happens when you remove parents from the equation.

The premise was simple but high-stakes: 20 children, aged 11 and 12, were split into two groups by gender. Ten boys and ten girls were placed in separate houses and told to live without adult supervision for five days.

Why 6174 is 'the coolest number in the universe' and people remain amazed by this math formula

Even if you flunked high-school algebra, become enraged at the sight of long division, or get stressed out by calculating a 20% tip for your restaurant check, you may find yourself fascinated to explore the weird, wild world of 6174—the four-digit sequence otherwise known in smart-people math circles as "Kaprekar’s Constant."

So, what makes this number so special? For the answer, we must first look back to the late Indian mathematician D. R. Kaprekar, who discovered a kind of algorithm with 6174 as the ultimate endpoint. In a mega-viral video for the YouTube channel Numberphile, University of Nottingham physics professor Roger Bowley offered a simple but fascinating breakdown of Kaprekar's findings.

5 foods that swing wildly between ‘best thing ever’ and ‘absolutely awful’

As we move into the holidays, the importance of finding delicious treats and meals for ourselves and for delighting friends and family becomes a top priority. This time of year is an opportunity to share family traditions and secrets gained through the trials of preparation. However, knowing exactly what to prepare and the best way to do it can be more complicated than most might think.

There are certain foods that can be either incredibly great or terribly boring, depending on how well you prepare them. Do they have the right amount of spices? Were they cooked at the right temperature, and were they sliced and diced to create a wonderful textural experience?

Michael Sheen bought $1 million of debt for 900 strangers just to teach greedy banks a lesson

Michael Sheen is best known for playing angels and vampires on screen, but for 900 people in South Wales, he’s become a very real savior. The acclaimed actor, famous for roles in Good Omens and Masters of Sex, has made headlines for a massive act of financial rebellion: he personally purchased—and then completely forgave—over £1 million ($1.29 million) of local debt.

In 2021, Sheen famously declared himself a “not-for-profit actor," pledging to use his earnings to fund social causes like this and the Welsh National Theatre. Now, a Channel 4 documentary, Michael Sheen’s Secret Million Pound Giveaway, has revealed exactly how he’s putting that money to work.

A 'Severance' fan with Stage 4 cancer made a 'bucket list' request. Ben Stiller's reply is perfect.

Due to their serialized format, terrific TV shows can create a real sense of community, sparking our imaginations in ways other mediums simply cannot. The very best, like Apple TV+'s mind-bending dystopian mystery series Severance, can also offer a comforting form of escapism.

Ben Stiller, the show's primary director and executive producer, was reminded of that fact over X, when a hardcore fan reached out with a seemingly long-shot request:

There is often a lot of cultural anxiety around aging, but a viral conversation is highlighting the incredible sense of liberation that actually comes with getting older. When asked what they care less about, seniors didn't list regrets—they listed all the heavy burdens they were finally happy to put down.

It turns out that with age comes a specific kind of confidence: a clarity on what truly matters and a refusal to "sweat the small stuff."
