All gemstones are beautiful, but rubies are absolutely amazing. They're red and sparkly. For centuries, people have been choosing them as special gifts and wearing on very special occasions. However, there also have been all sorts of stories about rubies bringing bad luck and danger into a person's life. Do rubies really have special properties as some people believe? The British royals love wearing all kinds of stones: diamonds, sapphires, emeralds. But you can hardly see a member of the royal family wearing a ruby. I this video I'm gonna explain where this tradition came from and which royal started banning rubies and saying they bring bad luck. #brightside Preview photo credit: Queen Victoria of England: By Everett Collection/Shutterstock.com, https://www.shutterstock.com/image-illustration/queen-victoria-england-252139597 Credit: CC BY-SA 3.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/: Sarah, Duchess of York wedding: By Elke Wetzig (https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=14947495), Prince Edward, Earl of Wessex and Sophie: By Frankie Fouganthin (https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=26670919) Princess Margaret 1965: By Nijs, Jac. de / Anefo – http://hdl.handle.net/10648/aaa8596e-d0b4-102d-bcf8-003048976d84, CC BY-SA 3.0 nl https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/nl/deed.en, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=32651668 The Duke and Duchess of York in Townsville: By Queensland State Archives – https://flic.kr/p/a8UhYq, CC BY 3.0 au https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/au/deed.en, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=68808349 Las Glorias Nacionales: By Fondo Antiguo de la Biblioteca de la Universidad de Sevilla from Sevilla – https://flic.kr/p/77CCSX, CC BY 2.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=51650414 Galaxy Macau mall The Promenade shops: By S MAISOUE, CC BY-SA 4.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=84098724 Animation is created by Bright Side.

More +100 Riddles Train You to See The World Like Sherlock Videos

Each night you look at the sky and see the Moon. But imagine if one day you saw Mars or Saturn where the Moon was supposed to be. Which consequences would it brig to our planet? It would turn the Earth into a different world? wouldn't it? In this video we're gonna explore which planet we can safely replace our Moon with. And which planet replacement would be the most disastrous one? #brightside TIMESTAMPS
The Moon formed 00:00
Several phases 00:40
Mercury 01:00
Venus 01:45
Mars 02:50
Jupiter 04:00
Saturn 05:10
Uranus and Neptune 06:24 SUMMARY
– Mercury is around two-fifth the size of our planet, but it's still a bit larger than the Moon. That's why the planet would have a greater influence on Earth;
– Venus would be as large in our sky as Earth once appeared to the Apollo astronauts when they looked at it from the Moon's surface;
– The "morning star" would be much brighter than the Moon. For one thing, the planet reflects 6 times more sunlight;
– If Mars was up there in the sky instead of the Moon, you'd surely notice it. Even without a telescope, you'd be able to marvel at its unusual color and dark spots on its surface;
– Massive waves would rise in the oceans under Martian influence. They would crash against the shoreline like the largest tsunamis;
– If Jupiter replaced the Moon, Earth as an independent planet wouldn't exist anymore. It would instantly turn into another moon of the largest planet in the Solar System;
– if Saturn was to replace the Moon, it would be a sight to behold. The planet is more than 35 larger than our satellite. It means the giant golden globe would cover 18 degrees of the sky. And its rings would stretch even further – from horizon to horizon;
– Neptune is 14 times larger than the Moon. The planet would look like a bright blue hot air balloon in the sky – not only at night but during the day too. It would appear to be 15 times larger than the Sun! If everything else remained the same, a solar eclipse would seem to continue for ages. Animation is created by Bright Side.
