#MARS

New evidence shows the presence of a large body of water – almost like a “lake” one mile beneath the icy surface of Mars – according to a study published in the journal Science.

@Alexjamesfitz posted: “Scientists discovered a liquid lake on Mars. Could that mean life?”

@Bart_fromuth added: “These discoveries seem to be happening with greater and greater frequency, feels like we are on the cusp of long awaited answers to some very big questions.”

@Matthitch applauded: “In the midst of a constant flow of awful news. This is a very welcome reprieve. Fascinating!”

#KITKAT

Judges in the European Court of Appeal dismissed Nestle’s attempt to have the shape of the four-finger Kitkat bar trademarked. The chocolate bar is already protected in Australia, Canada and South Africa, but the company had been trying to get same level of protection in Europe and the UK for more than a decade.

@Quitefunnyguy joked: “Bad break for Kitkat.”

@Theasgardian suggested: “I wouldn’t usually say yes, but everyone knows that’s the shape of a Kitkat. Anything else will be a cheap imitation that’s referred to as such.”

@tomwhite7 added: “Bit of Kitkat trivia – the noise you hear when they break a finger off in the advert is actually the noise of frozen celery being snapped...”

#WALKOFFAME

US president Donald Trump’s star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame has been destroyed by a man with a pick axe.

@kahn331 tweeted: “Now that’s an improvement! Even better if #Trump’s star is never replaced. Give that man a reward.”

@Markdavis lamented: “They can’t take a pickaxe to history.”

@notmyname02 pointed out: “To the man who is in custody after destroying Trump’s Hollywood #Walkoffame star: Now you have a criminal record, good luck getting a job, fool.”
