In 2017, a group of geologists hit the headlines when they announced their discovery of Te Riu-a-Māui in the Māori language. A vast continent of 1.89 million sq miles (4.9 million sq km) it is around six times the size of Madagascar. Though the world's encyclopedias, maps and search engines had been adamant that there are just seven continents for some time, the team confidently informed the world that this was wrong. There are eight after all – and the latest addition breaks all the records, as the smallest, thinnest, and youngest in the world. The catch is that 94% of it is underwater, with just a handful of islands, such as New Zealand, thrusting out from its oceanic depths. It had been hiding in plain sight all along.
Name this new continent that breaks all the records, as the smallest, thinnest, and youngest in the world?

Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, was christened a war hero when he vowed to stay in his country’s capital of Kyiv and help fend off Vladimir Putin’s troops. This weekend, the Twitterverse went deep on Zelenskyy’s backstory—revealing a venerable entertainment career known well by his countrymen, but one that is less familiar to citizens of other nations. Before becoming president of Ukraine, Zelenskyy’s political experience was limited to playing Ukraine’s president on the popular satirical TV series he created and produced. In the series, Zelenskyy starred as a teacher who inadvertently became president. The series ended the same year Zelenskyy became the actual president.

Thermodynamic temperature is proportional to the average of all the energies in all how an object can move. These are known as “degrees of freedom.” So, there are only three degrees of freedom for a single helium atom: motion in the up-down, left-right, back-forth directions. However, in a two-atom molecule of nitrogen, there are two additional degrees of freedom: one of rotation and one of vibration. In general, the more components there are in a complex object such as a large molecule, the greater the number of possible motions and degrees of freedom.
What is the SI unit for thermodynamic temperature?
CELSIUS
