What's the longest you've worn a pair of shoes? 

Mars rover Curiosity's aluminum wheels have seen better days, as this photo taken on the 3079th Mars day of the mission shows. That's over 8 years here on Earth of walking up and down mountains in the same pair of shoes. I wonder if we can find Curiosity a space cobbler?

The Road to Hogwarts is a viaduct in Scotland

One of the most famous viaducts is the Scottish Glenfinnan. He became famous all over the world after the release of the Harry Potter films.
It was over this bridge that the train to Hogwarts followed.

The Norwegian pension fund is "richer" than the 10 richest people in the world. Combined.

Norwegian pension, aka oil, fund is made from tax deductions from the sale of Norwegian oil and is used to ensure the welfare of society as a whole (the payment of pensions, benefits, etc.). By the way, it is invested in a huge number of different areas, and very successfully: in 2021, its return rate was 14.5% - such a return, even in rubles for a private investor may be a good result, and certainly for more than a trillion-dollar fund and in dollars...

And actually about the fund: its size is now 1339 billion dollars! And the total wealth of the 10 richest people in the world (all kinds of Ilon Muskie, Jeff Bezos and other Bill Gates) - only 1307!

That's really "national wealth"!
