Most of us are currently very motivated to focus on school and make good new impressions on our new teachers. This means that we might not be keeping up, or even know, some of the things that have been going on around the world. So without further ado here are the Three Things You Should Know for this week.

Many might have heard about the 6.8 earthquake that shook central Myanmar in late August. Nevertheless, are you aware that it was so powerful that it actually had an effect on the roads of Sam Yan, Ratchadapisek and Sukhumvit? People have taken to social media such as twitter to report what was happening while they were in a 10 story building. Soon after they were all evacuated into safety.

Photos are circulating around Greenville, North Carolina stating that there have been creepy clowns trying to lure children into the woods. There has not only been one but three police reports stating the same exact thing therefor residents were advised to stay indoors when it’s dark out. Appearances may be misleading, in result the Plymouth Clowns took it to their facebook page to announce that they have no potential of this being a criminal activity. A clown mistress taking part in the club state “We do not chase, jump, or follow people, and do not interact with people unless they approach us first.”

In the month of September SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket exploded during a test launch at the Cape Canaveral, no one know what caused it but the explosion was so powerful it also destroyed a satellite that Facebook had planned to use to extend its Internet access to Africa. However, SpaceX can confirm that there was an anomaly on the pad being about the loss of the vehicle, thankfully the pad was clear and no injuries took place.
