How Ryan Gosling won the Oscars without actually winning an Oscar We’ve got answers to all of your questions about Gosling and his epic “I’m Just Ken” performance.

And yet the combined genius of the movie’s creators and Gosling’s abject refusal to phone in anything not only made it work, but earned the actor widespread praise and a nomination from the Academy for Best Supporting Actor.

About a year ago, Dr. Federica Gigante, a research associate at Cambridge University, was preparing for a lecture and was looking for a photo of 17th-century Italian nobleman and collector Ludovico Moscardo when she happened upon an image of something exceedingly rare, an ancient Arab astrolabe. The relic was kept in the same museum as Moscardo’s photo. According to the University of Cambridge, an astrolabe is an ancient instrument akin to the “world’s first smartphone” that has hundreds of uses, including calculating time and distances, plotting the position of the stars and even making predictions about the future by casting a horoscope.
