In a deck shuffle or a data network, randomness seems pure chaos—yet a surprising order hides in the cycles of a permutation. We unpack why the expected number of cycles in a random permutation of n items equals the harmonic number H_n, and how for large n this grows only like ln n (more precisely, ln n + gamma). We’ll connect this elegant math to …

Once thought frozen and geologically dead, Mimas may host a global liquid ocean just beneath its icy shell. By analyzing Cassini data—tiny librations, apsidal precession, and recent surges in orbital eccentricity—scientists infer a 20–30 km ocean decoupling the crust from the core. The ocean's youth, formed within the last 5–25 million years, provi…
