Our amazing sun, as a result of nuclear fusion, reaches 10,000°F at the surface. That is five times hotter than molten rock from a volcano!
A bar-tailed godwit (bird) is small in comparison to stars but also is an astonishing creation. It was tagged by scientists with a GPS tracker. It migrated 8,435 continuous miles (non-stop) from Alaska to Tasmania in only eleven days (October 13-24, 2022). Obviously, a record!

There are many worldviews in the world, such as Marxism, Eastern Mysticism, biblical theism, nihilism, humanism, and postmodernism.
