This fish existed eighty million years ago and inhabited the planet along with titanosaurs and pterodactyls. Only the Frilled Shark managed to survive to the present day, and practically hasn't changed at all. Is it possible to meet one in our time? And would it really be possible to survive after such a meeting? Now, we're going to find out!

A unique find was discovered in the permafrost of Siberia. Meet Sparta, a lion cub. It’s the best-preserved frozen specimen from the last Ice Age ever found. Lions usually sleep twenty hours a day, but this lion cub took a twenty-eight-thousand-year nap. Despite this, it has well-preserved fur, internal organs, skeleton, and even whiskers. But most importantly, the cub may still hold some of its mother’s milk inside it. Thanks to it, scientists will be able to determine what the lion cub’s mother used to feed on.
For many years, the information concerning what lions could eat under the harsh Siberian conditions remained a mystery. But there’s a downside to such finds. Exploring the ice mountains of Siberia, scientists can encounter not only perfectly preserved creatures but also perfectly preserved viruses. And the worst part is that, unlike a lion cub, viruses can recover on their own.
In this video, you'll find out: will we be able to see a living mammoth? What kind of menace has the Siberian freezer kept for us for years? And should we oppose the research missions to Siberia?
Scientists recently discovered an exoplanet from the Draco constellation, which is seven times the size of its star. It’s comparable in scale with a volleyball revolving around a tennis ball. In this video, you'll find out: what celestial bodies don't fit into the usual model of the Universe? Can a planet "swell up"? Will Earth become larger than the Sun? And most importantly, how can a planet be bigger than its star?

Whatever reason you just need to urgently cross the ocean. The problem can be solved with the help of a tunnel that would allow various kinds of transport to move freely from Europe to the USA. Such structures are no longer a novelty we now have a tunnel under the amor river in China. Thus a Khan tunnel in Japan travels under the sea the cross Harbor tunnel between the island of Hong Kong and Mainland China in comparison with the gargantuan tunnel which will have to be dug from Europe to America these will all seem like tiny little underwater

The history of a nuclear bomb has started long before Hiroshima. This scientific breakthrough was made in the eighteenth century. That was when Martin Klaproth discovered a radioactive element that was meant to become a "filling" for a nuclear weapon – uranium.
Later, other scientists studied and gave a detailed description of nuclear fission. Unfortunately, the results of their collective work served the interests of the military. And helped it pursue the goals you perfectly know about. Today, almost fifteen countries possess nuclear weapons. Their governments are in no hurry to get rid of them. And the worst part is the number of nukes may even grow. It used to take decades to make one bomb...
Currently, if you have money and the needed technologies, you can put nuclear warheads into mass production. Or am I wrong?
In this video, you’ll find out: Who is in charge of the Nuclear Balance? How many years does it take to design the weapon and how is an atomic bomb built in the first place?
The European Space Agency's Juice probe will crash into Ganymede, Jupiter's largest moon. In ten years, a one-billion-dollar vehicle will instantly turn into a pile of trash! Moreover, scientists have known about that since twenty twelve. And what's even stranger is that the doomed probe will leave Earth only in the summer of twenty twenty-two! But why won't scientists prevent this catastrophe? In fact, this sacrifice is necessary to collect essential data. As it's somewhere around Jupiter that we hope to find life and maybe even establish colonies. But which moons of the gas giant should we choose for the research? In this video, you’ll find out: where is the place with the largest number of volcanoes in the Solar System? Why is it dangerous for space probes to get closer to Europa? And most importantly, can we survive on the moons of Jupiter?

Our starry sky deceives us. Four out of five stars you see from Earth are, in fact, binary star systems. There are also triple systems, but binary ones are the most common in the Universe. So, in theory, Earth had a better chance of ending up in a binary solar system. However, it's infrequent that such systems have planets, and it's pretty dangerous to live in an unstable world like this. But what if we try? In this video, you’ll find out: how can we turn our Jupiter into a star? If we do, will it bring unbearable heat or, instead, permafrost to Earth? And will we manage to survive if a star appears in the Sun’s orbit?

Who do you think it is? A horse? A gorilla? Or a zebra? It’s all of that combined. This is Chalicotherium, and it lived in territories of Eurasia and Africa in the Miocene epoch – the period when evolution created the most bizarre and surrealistic creatures. Thanks to such an unusual physique, this animal needed just one powerful right hook to knock any predator out. And that's not the only oddball with a unique superpower that existed long before us. I
n this video, I'll tell you: what creature could break the sound barrier? Who had a vacuum-cleaner kind of mouth? Who could move upside down? And most importantly, what were the most extraordinary features that extinct animals had? But (spoiler alert!) one of these creatures I’ve just made up. Can you guess which one?

in 1999 humanity was on the verge of a major breakthrough with the help of the hubble space telescope scientists found the most distant and possibly the largest galaxy ever however a bit later there were certain adjustments to the research it turned out that the astronomers had spotted not a galaxy but a ray of light emitted by one star reflected off another and shining right at the telescope this works like a sunbeam bouncing off a mirror and oddly enough such blunders happen in the scientific world with striking regularity in this video you'll figure out why nasa still hasn't kicked out certain scientists for cheating how galaxies are born and what objects in the universe are the largest or at least we think they are

The power of their body and the force of their jaw compression is enough to instantly bite off part of the flesh from a human leg or gnaw at the bones of a chicken. Piranhas. Fish that we’ve been afraid of since childhood thanks to legends and horror movies.
The ancestors of modern piranhas - megapiranhas - were five times longer, eighty times heavier, and their bite force was more powerful than that of the largest lion.
How long would you last alone with such a monster?

A phrase that quite accurately characterizes our time, has been floating around the internet for a long time. Born too late to explore the world, born too early to explore the Universe. Indeed, humanity hasn't flown beyond the limits of near-Earth orbit. But In terms of discovering new lands, the anonymous author clearly spoke too soon. As it turns out, in 2017 a new continent was discovered - Zealandia. A couple of years later, scientists discovered that it was directly connected to the most dangerous volcanos on the Earth.
What do this hidden continent and ring of fire have in common?

There have appeared many new scientific discoveries since that time, and many of them shake the foundations of the famous theory. It’s full of gaps and unanswered questions. So doesn't this mean it’s not that perfect?
In this video, I’ll tell you: how many dimensions can the Universe have? What if the world was made of liquid? And most importantly, you’ll find out why the Big Bang theory can be wrong.
In 2017, the Very Large Array Radio Telescope located in the plains of New Mexico detected radio bursts in a star-forming galaxy that lies five hundred million light-years away from us. The bursts happened in a binary star system where one of the stars had once turned into a black hole. It sank to the star's outer layers, which made it emit a tremendous amount of gas and dust. And when the black hole swallowed up the star’s core, gravitational forces triggered energy flow in the star’s layers. And that's precisely what we saw on Earth.
That was how a dying star warned us of a terrible danger – Space Cannibalism. These events took place far away from Earth, but is it a rare occasion in outer space? Who might be the one to attack us? And is it possible to get away from space cannibals?
That’s the question that puzzles scientists who are monitoring the Moon. The thing is, our satellite is acting really weird: flaring up, erupting the fire, producing multicolored fog. It raises the question: is this celestial body okay? Astronomers can't yet determine exactly what all these unusual Moon symptoms mean.
Although the satellite is really close to our planet and was visited by both spacecraft and astronauts, it turned out that there's still so much that we don't know about our nearest neighbor. But the worst part is any catastrophe that could happen to the Moon would undoubtedly affect us.
In this video, you’ll find out: why is it dangerous for astronauts to land on the Moon? Can our satellite explode? And most importantly, can the Moon wipe out humanity?
