Rewind to 6 November 2005 to 12 November 2005

🌠 Fireballs or flying saucers
Europe looks up, panics, phones the cops. Slow, glowing Taurids put on a show that screams UFO vibes then science says “comet crumbs, babes.”

✈️ Long-haul flex
Boeing’s 777-200LR Worldliner goes Hong Kong → London non-stop in 22h42m. Record set, jet lag sponsored by GE90 engines.

🩸 Outback nightmare fuel
Wolf Creek claws to #1 in Australia on a $1.4m budget. Backpackers rethinking road trips, esky sales unaffected.

📺 Satire with a side-eye
The Boondocks premieres on Adult Swim. Huey and Riley move to suburbia and roast America before the closing credits.

💃 First Lady of the mirrorball
Ada Nicodemou wins Dancing With The Stars with Aric Yegudkin. Perfect scores, perfect hair, Aussie TV gobbles it up.

🎸 Press green, feel famous
Guitar Hero lands on PS2. Five buttons, one plastic axe, instant living-room stadium tour if your wrist holds out.

📚 Not that kind of tearjerker
Nicholas Sparks’ At First Sight keeps book clubs busy and critics busy sighing. Bring tissues or snark — both work.
