What are strange mysteries?

Strange mysteries are puzzles that happen in the real world, like when something doesn’t act the way you’d expect it to.

Imagine you have a toy box full of blocks. You know how they work: stack them up, and they stay standing. But one day, you notice that some of your blocks float when you put them near a certain red block. That’s a strange mystery, something happens that doesn’t match what you normally see.

Like a secret message in the sky

Sometimes, strange mysteries happen far away. For example, scientists look at the stars and notice patterns that seem like they’re trying to tell us something, just like how you might leave a note for your friend in the shape of blocks in your toy box.

Or maybe it's right under your nose

Other times, these puzzles are all around you. Maybe you see birds flying in a perfect line, or you hear a sound that comes from nowhere. These are strange mysteries, things that don’t quite make sense at first, but might lead to cool discoveries if we keep asking why?Strange mysteries are puzzles that happen in the real world, like when something doesn’t act the way you’d expect it to.
