A couple of months ago I was learning chemistry in my science class. Whilst learning this, they mentioned to us that atoms have their own unit of measurement. The name of said measurement?
ANGSTROMS.
AS IN, LORD ANGSTROM. ;D
Am I the only one who finds this funny? I think that's just about the science/math-geekiest thing they've ever done on BLoSC...

I did find that amusing. ;D did you know that a parsec is a large distance measurement than a lightyear but Ty is always in Buzz's shadow. Like Buzz is "bigger" than Ty as far as being well-known and popular. Interesting twist.

I did actually know the Parsec thing...
this is probably common knowledge, but it's worth posting anyway:
Canis Lunis, the planet where Ty turned wirewolf, is named after the scientific name for a wolf. (I actually think it's Canis Lupis now that I think about it, but I'll give them some artistic lisence for that)

They probably used Lunis instead of Lupis as a pun for "moon." XDD
Oh, I've got another one, even if it isn't science-related!
Gravitina's character was probably modeled after Eartha Kitt. The sound of her voice, her demeanor, it's all there. (I blame my mom making this comment when I was watching Gravitina a few months back.) But still, I find it kinda cool. XDD

Another bit of random trivia for anyone who cares:
The guy who plays Manny in Bugs Life is one of the Chlorm Scientists...he's the mean one, I can't remember the character's name for the life of me...Eon?
