Oldest Message In A Bottle A family in Perth have found the world's oldest message in a bottle found and is almost 132 years old after it was thrown into the sea. Tonya Illman picked was going on a walk around the sand dunes in West Australia and picked the bottle up. They had found some paper in the bottle but didn't know what it was until they dried it in their oven. Experts have confirmed it was from a German ship. The bottle was thrown off the German ship Paula as an experiment and was dated 12 June 1886. The previous world record was 108 years. I think this was a really interesting article. I found this article from Kiwi Kids News.

Selfies Makes Your Nose Look Bigger A new study has found that your nose it 30 percent bigger in selfies. The study was called Nasal Distortion. Scientist made a mathematical model based on the average head and facial feature measurements. Then it calculated the changes between the width at various camera distances and the noses breadth. This is how they worked it out. If you take a selfie 30cm away from you, then your nose looks 30 percent wider. I think they should try change this so your nose doesn't look wider than it is.
