Coffee connoisseurs may not want to believe it, but it's true. If you're feeling a little peckish in the afternoon, consider eating an apple instead of buying a cup of coffee. Eating apples is a great (and healthy) way to stay energised throughout the day because of their high carbohydrate, fibre, vitamin C, and mineral content. The world's most despised vegetable is also one of the healthiest.

Different computations provide different values for the number of galaxies in the observable universe — that is, the part of the cosmos visible from Earth with current technology; there may be many more, but they are just too far for our telescopes to detect. Using Hubble Telescope data, researchers determined that the visible universe contains around 170 billion galaxies.

The Earth is 4.5 billion years old, and plants, most likely mosses and liverworts with shallow roots, may have colonized land as recently as 470 million years ago.

This one might not come as much of a surprise as Leonardo DiCaprio isn’t known for his drawing abilities. What might raise an eyebrow is a stand-in who drew the picture was the actual director of Titanic, James Cameron. Well known for his artistic side, Cameron is the one who drew Kate Winslet. The only problem is he and Leo write with different hands, so they had to use a mirror image of the actual shot in the movie to keep the continuity. 

The Batcave made its television debut. The Batcave, as well as a slim Alfred Pennyworth, were presented in a 1943 TV serial called The Batman. Batman's all-encompassing awareness of everyone's secrets, whether friend or foe, defines him.

He was enraged that his thunder had been stolen.

Here's a rather contentious DC fact! Diana's romantic interests included both men and women when she was created in 1941.

People call it the God particle since Leon Lederman coined the term in his book of the same name. Marketing brilliance, but completely incorrect. (Aren't they all small particles of God?) In the opening chapter of their book, Lederman and his co-author Dick Teresi explain that "the publisher wouldn't allow us to name it the Goddamn Particle, though it may be a more appropriate title, considering its evil character and the expense it is creating."
