Scientists Found a New Planet, but It Suddenly Vanished



The Hubble Telescope orbits our planet, looking out at the big unknown universe. Since it’s out of our atmosphere, the Hubble can see way further than telescopes on land. No clouds up there. This guy helped us confirm the theory about supermassive black holes in the centers of galaxies. It also discovered a whole bunch of new galaxies, including the world's oldest one, which is about 8 billion years older than our Milky Way! But let’s travel 25 light-years away to another special star. Fomalhaut. It's almost twice as big and heavy as the Sun. If you look at it from far away, you can see a bright yellow disk around it. It’s a debris disk, full of bits of space rock, and it’s huge. Scientists were curious about it, was all this space dust gonna get smooshed together and become a planet one day? But then they saw something else! Right there, through all that debris, was a massive mysterious object… #brightside

Why You Need Braces but Ancient Humans Didn’t



Our teeth can be kind of a pain, but luckily, it’s 2020, we can fix them, keep them clean, and get rid of a toothache with one visit to the dentist. But imagine life thousands of years ago, no toothpaste, no floss, toothbrushes, mouthwash, no braces… Their teeth must’ve been terrible! Or not? Those dentist words: cavities, plaque…they didn’t exist back then. Let’s get in our BrightSide time-machine and go back a bit. Ancient people ate tough meat, cracking open nuts, chewing some tasty tree bark… Their teeth helped them survive in wild and harsh conditions. They were not indestructible, but their unique structure was hard to beat. What do we eat in 2020? Soft patties, pasta, pizza, you get the picture. That stuff’s worse for your teeth than anything your ancestors were eating! Even more surprising: our squishy modern diet has made our mouths shrink! #brightside CC BY-SA 3.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0:

Why Do Planes Pour Salt Over Clouds?



Hey, what's wrong with that plane? It's flying over your head, moving in circles! Has it lost its way? Are there some problems with its navigation systems? Nah, calm down. It's just sprinkling salt over the clouds. It's called cloud seeding. Everyone knows for sure rock salt is used to prevent people from slipping and cars from skidding off the road in the winter. But why would we need to do it in the sky?! Well, drought is a big problem in many places all over the planet. A lack of drinking water, parched soil, wilting plants… And cloud seeding could solve this problem once and for all. To put it simply, the whole process is sowing clouds with chemicals to make it snow or rain. But how exactly does this thing work? And why do some people are skeptical about the cloud-seeding idea? Let's find out! #brightside British Airways Concorde G-BOAC: By Eduard Marmet, CC BY-SA 3.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=5810282

They Liked Stone Pillows More Than Cloth and 30 Unusual Past Habits



When people speak about ancient times, they basically envision backward people who just gathered harvest and didn't know science or math to explain the world. But is that association really justified? For example, the Egyptian invented paper and built mind-boggling works of architecture like the Great Pyramids that scientists still can't explain to this day! And did you know the Greeks prized their dogs, and would do anything to protect them? They even invented that spiky dog collar everyone’s wearing these days. Or that the first university was in India almost 3,000 years ago? It had about 10,000 students and 60 different subjects. We decided to open up the curtains of history and found some really interesting facts about ancient people that you won't find in many history books or see in Hollywood movies! #brightside Preview photo credit: A detail of a painting from the tomb of Nakht depicting three ladies at a feast.

30 Past Habits Stunned Even My History Teacher



When people speak about ancient times, they basically envision uneducated people who gathered harvest and believed in evil spirits and curses. But those are stereotypes that live in our minds. For example, what do we know about ancient Egyptians, Greeks, or Romans? The Egyptian invented paper, mummified pharaohs, and they built mysterious pyramids — the secrets of which still haven’t been uncovered by the leading scientists of the world. Of course, all of this is extremely interesting, but there are many other, no less impressive, facts about Ancient Egypt. What’s more, Egyptians’ weekdays were much brighter and hectic than we can imagine. Did you know, for example, that the Egyptians were probably the first seafarers? They made ships out of reeds, wood, and papyrus. Or that the Greeks prized their dogs, and would do anything to protect them? They even invented that spiky dog collar everyone’s wearing these days. Or that the first university was in India almost 3,000 years ago. It had about 10,000 students and 60 different subjects. We decided to open up the curtains of history and found some really interesting facts about ancient people that you will neither read in history books nor see in Hollywood blockbusters. #brightside

41 Body Facts Surprised Even My Biology Teacher



Scientists reveal new discoveries about the human body almost every day, and some of them sound very surprising to us. We made a collection of facts that suggests there is something really powerful about our bodies. Did you know for, example, that your brain generates electricity, and it’d be enough to light up a small lightbulb, if you could only figure out how? Or that tongue has a lot of fat in it? And if you gain weight, your tongue does too! Most people think they have 5 senses. But that’s not true. Scientists don’t yet know themselves, but they think there’re more than 20. There’s sight, hearing, touch, smell and taste, and there’re other senses like time, hunger and thirst. Then there’s proprioception – the sense of where your body is in space. Interested? Then check out these unusual facts about your body that you might’ve not even thought about. #brightside Male Homo sapiens and Pan troglodytes hyoid bones: By Ruggero D’Anastasio, Stephen Wroe, Claudio Tuniz, Lucia Mancini, Deneb T.

20+ Things You Forgot to Google What It’s For



In our daily lives, we are surrounded by lots of objects that seem so common we don’t even stop to think why they are really needed and how they appeared. Did you know, for example, that those two holes on a side of any Converse shoe are there not only to let the stinky air out? Sure, breathability is important for any athlete. The second reason is that athletes lace through those holes to get a better grip. Donuts have a hole in the middle. No, it's not designed for an easier grip. It's actually made this way for mass baking so that they cook all the way through evenly. Most metallic zippers have a hidden lock inside them to save you from awkward situations such as an undone fly. Bath foam isn’t only for fun or a nice smell – it also helps regulate the temperature. The bubbles keep the water hot, so you can enjoy a bath a bit longer! So, as you may have guessed, today, we'll tell you about the extraordinary purposes of the most ordinary things. #brightside We know how to lift your mood!
