What’s the best thread count for sheets? In our experience, top-rated bed sheets usually have thread counts between 300 and 500. Anything above 500 isn’t necessarily better (so don’t be deceived when you see high thread counts), and on the other hand, you can still find quality sheets with lower thread counts.

Fact

Drinking a lot of water before bedtime enhances dream recall.

Some psychologists claim that people who wake up during their sleeping routine are more likely to remember their dreams, than those who have straight 8-hour sleep. Hence, drinking three glasses of water before going to bed will cause you to urinate multiple times throughout your sleep and force you to wake up.

Myth

In space, you experience zero gravity.

Gravity is considered the most important force in the universe, and it doesn’t just go away when we leave Earth. Gravity is necessary for everything from the Moon’s ability to orbit the Earth to the Sun staying put in the Milky Way. What astronauts actually experience in space is what NASA calls micro-gravity. It has nothing to do with the actual strength of gravity, which is only very slightly less on the International Space Station. It’s because astronauts are constantly falling, so they seem weightless.
