Contemplating the Multiverse
This article on Space.com includes five theories that explore the possibility of universes that exist in addition to our own, also known as a multiverse.
Scientists assume that space-time is flat and stretches out infinitely. If space-time continues to expand forever, then it must start repeating at some point, because particles can only be arranged in a finite number of ways in space and time. This is known as the infinite universes theory.

Shooters
Several writers of my acquaintance, such as Allen Ginsberg and Ed Sanders, developed the habit of keeping extensive files of press clippings on stories of personal interest. Noam Chomsky, we're told, does the same thing. An individual news report may mention something in passing that may seem secondary to the main narrative, but when multiple stories collected over time repeat the same seemingly secondary data, important patterns can become apparent.

Corals and Gobies: A Symbiotic Love Story
Coral reefs are threatened across the world's oceans by seaweed. Scientists and ecologists have found a natural protection mechanism within the biology of the corals themselves. A study posted in the journal of Science has shown that a certain species of coral, Acropora nasuta, releases a chemical signal to attract the gobies species Gobidon histrio and Paragobidon enchinocephalus to the site of attack when threatened by a harmful seaweed.
