There's also evidence that Leonardo DaVinci made an automaton. Its successfulness is unknown as far as I know.

A rainbow isn't as magical as one may think, and you can never actually touch the kind you see in the sky. It's an illusion of sunlight refracting in rain, then that light bouncing into your eyes, presenting the colours. It requires a good alignment of sun and rain to produce a vivid rainbow. and due to its nature you cannot reach it. It will move as you do. Sorry, leprechaun hunters.

The reason most fire burns orange is because of sodium. Heat and burning different elements cause flame to burn a different colour.

MR BONES WILD RIDE, a ride from RollerCoaster Tycoon 2, takes four in-game years to run a full cycle. The exit just leads to another entrance. The ride never ends.

The clouds outside are moving very quickly right now. Wind is a product of solar flares across the atmosphere, the earth's rotation, and high and low pressure atmospheric systems. A lot of stuff goes into wind, don't take it for granted.

Forward force upon an object in air: Thrust
Downward force upon an object in air: Gravity
Backward force upon an object in air: Drag
Upward force upon an object in air: Lift

Lift and thrust must overcome gravity and drag to achieve flight.

Solar roadways are a thing. It was in a thread here on Chaos. While expensive, the premise has been funded and could turn the entire road systems of America into power generators.

Scientists are working on bioluminescent plants, such as trees, to replace street lights. Whether it will pan out, I don't know.
