Hello, aircraft lovers! Have you ever thought why airplane windows are round instead of square like the ones on your house? And why do the shades have to be up when planes take off and land? Although it’s been around since the 1920s, commercial air travel didn’t really take off until the ‘50s. That’s when airplanes started to fly at higher altitudes. It saved airlines tons of money because up there, the air is significantly less dense and aircraft use less fuel. But the early, box-shaped planes couldn’t handle that kind of pressure, so engineers presented a new cylinder-shaped cabin. And even after this upgrade, aircraft still had standard square windows, and that turned out to be a grave mistake… Other videos you might like:

That's Why Airplane Seats Are Almost Always Blue https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0esI1IrxCmk& TIMESTAMPS:
Why square windows are so vulnerable 0:30
What about the shades? 2:00
Must these windows be so low? 2:54
Why are they so small? 3:45
Why are the doors on the left side 5:35
… and why do they always open inward? 6:17
Are rear-facing seats much safer? 7:15 #planes #aviation #brightside SUMMARY:
– If each square window has 4 vulnerable spots, it’s likely to shatter under the enormous stress that comes from keeping the cabin pressurized for passengers at high altitudes. – When the shades are closed, flight attendants can't see what's happening outside. And since most accidents happen during take-off and landing, it's crucial that the cabin crew have a good view of what's going on outside the aircraft.
– By placing windows that low, airplane manufacturers distribute the pressure around them more evenly. – Big windows can weaken the plane’s fuselage. If it’s not as strong and gives under the pressure, the aircraft gets ripped apart.
– If they were bigger, that cabin pressure would escape faster. As a result, the air would become unbearable before the aircraft managed to reach a safe altitude. – Then why are the windows in the cockpit so big?? In this case, we have to deal with priorities. Pilots need to be able to see what's happening around them and where they’re going. – Another question connected with the doors on jumbo jets is, "Why do they always open inward?" Here’s a hint: it’s called a “plug” door. The pressure inside the plane is much higher than it is outside. This pressure literally forces the door in its socket and prevents it from opening until the pressure becomes equal. – Backward seating on a plane is much safer than the usual one. It’s because rear-facing seats provide more support for your neck, head, and back.
– But the main reason for leaving things as they are is the huge costs this renovation would involve. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

Start Eating 1 Banana a Day, See What Happens to Your Weight
So, ever seen an athlete packing it with bananas after an intense workout? You know, there’s a good reason for that, and it concerns you and me as well! Of course, you don’t have to munch on the long yellow stuff like crazy, but eating a single banana every day can definitely do you lots of good! For example, if you’re on the track to shedding a few extra pounds but having difficulty curbing that sweet tooth, a banana can help you out. Its natural sweetness is a blessing when you’re craving for something sugary! Also, a medium-sized banana contains only about 100 calories, as opposed to 400 in a chocolate bar you would eat otherwise. So stack up on a bunch of those yellow goodies and lay them on your desk!

It curbs your appetite 5:03
It makes your kidneys happy 5:52
Bananas help you even before you’re born 6:34
❗️❗️❗️ Side effects you should know about ❗️❗️❗️ #banana #weightloss #brightside SUMMARY:
– Insoluble fibers reach your digestive tract, they don’t dissolve and instead travel through your whole body, pushing out the unnecessary stuff.
– A single banana contains more than 10% of the daily norm of vitamin C, which is, as you know, a sort of a magic bullet to being healthy.
– Vitamin C in these fruits is an antioxidant that protects your skin as well as your immune system.
– Potassium, which is the primary element contained in bananas, is crucial for your heart and blood vessels.
– It cooperates with other electrolytes to regulate the fluid levels, which is especially good after an intense workout.
– Bananas have just the right amount of natural sugar to boost your energy levels, and they also contain other substances that help you achieve better results when training.
– The yellow delight is naturally sweet and neutral in taste, so when you decide to bake a cake or some muffins, it’s pretty much okay to substitute sugar or any other sweetener for that matter, with a couple of bananas. – It’s quite low in calories but high on useful stuff, such as all kinds of fibers and starch, which makes you feel full and think twice before indulging your sweet tooth once again.
– Bananas, thanks to all the antioxidants and other beneficial elements, help your kidneys to remain healthy and prosper.
– You see, B vitamins, especially vitamin B6, are crucial during embryo development. A single average banana contains about a third of the normal daily intake, so doctors advise pregnant women to have a banana a day just to additionally ensure that their babies are born healthy and happy.
– If you have an allergy to latex, you might as well develop one to kiwis, chestnuts, avocados, and yes, bananas. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

Why Airplanes Get Delayed So Often
You know this feeling of frustration when you’re about to fly to some exotic country for an unforgettable vacation, and then suddenly see that your flight is delayed? Or worse, you’re going to an extremely important business meeting, and a delay in your flight ruins it! Although it’s never pleasant, it seems there are pretty good reasons for delays. First, to be fair, about 80% of all flights are ON time — that is, within 15 minutes of the scheduled time. The other 20% are delayed, and it might seem a huge number, but consider this: a commercial flight is not like hopping into a car and driving away. It’s an extremely serious operation that requires lots of coordinated work from hundreds of people. Just recall how many steps do you, as a passenger, need to take to get on board! But still, a delay can make you really upset, so here are the most frequent reasons for that. Other videos you might like:

Waiting for the crew 5:50
Weight overload 6:30
Food 7:12
Strikes 7:46
Airport congestion 8:20
Air traffic control 8:56 #planes #airport #brightside SUMMARY:
– An airplane must get clearance to depart from its home airport. Then, after arrival to another country, issues have to be solved to get clearance to depart from there once again. All of this requires time. – Even a direct lightning strike can’t do much harm to a plane, and it happens more often than you think! However, nobody would risk hundreds of lives and an expensive aircraft for no good reason, and weather delays do occur.
– Pilots run final checks right before the flight, and if they see something’s off, they call the ground crew and fix things together. – Preparing an airplane is a serious business, and any mistake here can cost much more than just money or time.
– Connecting flights are the most difficult to handle for obvious reasons: there are two different airplanes that need to adjust their schedules to each other. – Delays caused by cargo are usually not too long, so you won’t be asked to return to the gate while waiting and loading is in process. Still, it can take up to an hour, so you’ll have to be patient.
– Often, the crew for your flight arrives from another one that has just landed in your airport. And it sometimes happens that their previous flight is not exactly on schedule for some reason.
– Many airplanes have precise weight restrictions, and if they’re violated, the flight is not allowed.
– If you’re at a busy airport, you just might get delayed because your service hasn’t delivered the food for your airplane on time.
– Airport employees go on strikes almost every year, and it’s among the top reasons for flight delays in Europe. – It might seem weird, but flight traffic is getting heavier with every passing year, and airlines keep getting in trouble with that. – The number of flights keeps growing, and it’s getting harder and harder to keep track of all of them, especially since the ATC equipment is not really up-to-date.

What Will Happen to Us Before 2025?
The 21st century is the age of rapid technological progress, and we’re advancing at a mind-blowing rate. So what do you think our world will look like by 2025? It’s only a little bit more than 5 years from now, but by various accounts, it’s going to be really exciting in 5 years. Solar panels will beat fossil fuels in energy output, becoming the largest source of energy on the planet. Augmented and virtual reality will become a thing. The problem of traffic jams will either be solved altogether or very close to it. Human genome will most probably be cracked, and only ethical issues will remain before genetic modifications of people become available… Other videos you might like:

– Solar panels will be able to absorb much more sunlight, and even when it’s overcast.
– You’ll be able to have a virtual tour around a hotel before booking a room in it. Or how about taking a good look at 3D models of all goods in a store before adding them to your cart?
– The problem of traffic jams will either be solved altogether or very close to it. With the growing demand for driverless cars and even flying cars, the human factor will decrease dramatically.
– Gasoline fuel will become a fading memory by 2025. Electric and hydrogen-powered vehicles will push gas-powered ones further and further out of the market. – The Internet of Things, or IoT, will be omnipresent. Smart homes, smart offices, whole smart buildings — literally everything will be connected with everything else, separated only by closed internal networks.
– Several large companies, like Google, Facebook, and SpaceX, are already working together on a project that will bring the Internet to everyone on the planet at speeds over 1 megabit per second.
– In 5 years’ time, the AI will not only be able to answer simple questions and follow your commands, but it will also become deeper and more inquisitive itself.
– Human genome will most probably be cracked, and only ethical issues will remain before genetic modifications of people become available. – No more littering the soil and the oceans — we’ll be making a huge step towards a greener planet. – Of course, we won’t be able to go to the past or teleport around the world in 5 years’ time. But the concept itself will become more real either way.
– With genetic modification becoming commonplace, modified crops will be grown indoors.
– Robots will take over the most menial jobs on the market, making humans turn their attention to more intellectual tasks.
– 5G mobile Internet connection will be a common thing in most technologically advanced countries and cities. – Blockchain will become the preferred method of transferring money and valuable assets between people and organizations.
– Entertainment will become even more diverse with the growth in popularity of space tourism. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

A Potentially Habitable Super Earth Has Been Discovered
The universe is too big for us to be the only ones in it. It's just a matter of knowing where to look, and scientists from NASA's TESS program might have stumbled across the next clue in this galactic scavenger hunt. The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite was launched in April of 2019 with the aim of locating planets in orbit around nearby stars. One of these stars is the comparatively small GEE-JAY 357. It's about 31 light-years from Earth. It's one of the closest to Earth! Thanks to TESS, NASA astronomers discovered a planet orbiting this distant star. And in fact, it’s one of the few whose atmosphere can be studied by scientists, once they determine if it has one! Other videos you might like:

A planet that is technically survivable for humans 2:15
Can we expect any alien visitors? 5:03
Why we can't see those planets directly 6:57 #planets #space #brightside SUMMARY:
– GEE-JAY 357 b is believed to be about twenty-two percent larger than Earth, and eleven times closer to its star than Mercury is to the Sun. – Scientists have discovered planets beyond our solar system before, but GEE-JAY 357-b is one of the closest to Earth. – Hidden beyond the semi-molten glow of this “hot Earth,” as astronomers called it, were two more planets. One of them, GEE-JAY 357-d is just far enough from the star to potentially support life. – Its orbiting inside its solar system's habitable zone, warm enough to support life, but not so warm that it ends up charbroiled. – NASA scientists estimate that that planet has an average temperature of about minus sixty-four degrees. That’s cold, comparable to the interior of Antarctica.
– I wouldn’t expect any alien visitors for most of the same reasons humans will probably never be visiting GEE-JAY 357-d for themselves. – If intelligent life developed, there’s no reason to believe it wouldn’t sooner or later turn its sensory organs to the stars. That's when the planet's gravity becomes an obstacle. I
– Scientists have estimated that reaching the moon of a planet ten times the size of Earth, would require almost five hundred thousand tons of fuel to get off the ground. – It is worth noting that Astronomers haven't yet been able to see any of these planets directly. The TESS only discovered the massive and hot planet b because of its silhouette passing in front of the star.
– Since c and d never passed between Earth and GEE-JAY 357 during the month when TESS was able to capture images of the star, we've only been able to study them indirectly.
– The middle planet, called GEE-JAY 357-c just to make things confusing, didn’t even give us that. Because of its unusually tilted orbit, this planet never passes between Earth and its star at all.

What Would a Journey to the Earth’s Core Be Like?
What’s the most exotic destination you’ve been to? Hawaii? Australia, Hoboken, New Jersey? Well, today I’m setting off on a journey that’s way more unusual than that – down to the Earth’s core. And I’m inviting you to join me. It’ll be fun! The center of the Earth lies about 4,000 miles below its surface, so it’s gonna be a looong trip. 💥 By the way, guys, be attentive! To make the journey even more fascinating, I've hidden something interesting in this video. Okay, I'll give you a hint – it's movie references! You definitely saw them because each of those films is iconic. Try to find them all and let everyone know you have a sharp eye in the comments! If you're a video game fan, there's a reference for you too. But this one is really difficult. 😽 And, of course, there is a cat hidden in this video. Can you spot it?

Why is getting so hot? 7:24
The inner core welcomes you! 8:09
Can you see the Earth’s core? 9:14 #earth #geology #brightside SUMMARY:
– The crust isn't really that thick. It’s roughly 21 miles thick and is made up of basaltic rocks that are under the sea, and granitic rocks that make up the continents.
– Nile Crocodiles dig the deepest burrows among all animals, so you can find them at 39 feet under ground.
– There are whole underground cities with shelters and catacombs in different countries. The deepest of them lies at 278 feet under Cappadocia in Turkey. – Continental crust is about 2 billion years old and it covers about 40 percent of the Earth (yeah, the rest is oceanic crust).
– In 2004, a half-marathon was organized in the Bochnia Salt Mine in Poland. It was the deepest half-marathon ever – you don’t often see people running at a depth of 695 feet after all. – The Earth’s crust serves as an electric blanket that covers the mantle. It’s rich in the radioactive elements uranium, thorium, and potassium, which produce heat! – The oceanic crust is never too far, and its average depth is 4.3 miles. It covers around 60 percent of the surface of our planet, and is thinner, denser and younger than the continental crust.
– The pressure is getting more and more extreme, and it’s getting colder and colder down here. This is the deepest point where earthquakes are born – the ones that come from here are rare, and get pretty weak by the time they’ve traveled 435 miles up to the surface. – At 1,814 miles deep, the mantle ends and the outer core begins. It’s a sunless sea of super hot liquid metal that’s about the size of Mars.
– Once every several thousand years, something happens in this layer: the magnetic poles reverse, and north and south change places. – At 2,750 miles, the inner core welcomes you! It’s the hottest, innermost part of the planet. – The inner core is nearly the size of the Moon, and makes up 2 per cent of the Earth’s mass. – Not so long ago, British scientists found out that the inner core is relatively young – probably somewhere between 500 and 1,000 million years old, and that’s nothing in terms of Earth science. – Now, for those of you who are thinking of packing your bags to go see the Earth’s core, I have some not-so-good news: it’s technically not possible yet, because there’s no way to survive the pressure and extreme heat that are waiting down there.

Something Strange Happens Every Night in Antarctica
There’s one unique place on our planet where there are no tourists, no traffic jams, and no high-rise buildings. This place is one of the hardest to reach, and it's almost impossible to survive there if you're unprepared. Right, it's Antarctica, the home of bizarre findings and even more mysterious phenomena. One of them is the deafening roar that's heard from the frozen terrain every night, accompanied by enigmatic icequakes. Something very strange happens in the coldest place on Earth, and this something makes the frozen valleys of Antarctica shake up to several hundred times a night! But while this experience might terrify even the most experienced observer, all the strangeness has a perfectly scientific explanation. Other videos you might like:

What researchers say 1:49
Bloodcurdling acoustic oddity 2:51
Scars left by cyclonic storms 5:03
Sources of incredible heat in Antarctica 7:21
Weird Antarctica's particles 8:47 #Antarctica #phenomena #brightside SUMMARY:
– The nightly ice quakes seem to relate to the recent climate changes; in particular, with melting polar ice caps. – Scientists think that the ice quakes that keep shaking glaciers are yet another example of how much stress our planet experiences because of the changing climate. – In 2014, scientists who were monitoring the Ross Ice Shelf in West Antarctica recorded a bloodcurdling acoustic oddity. – This spooky melody was just a reflection of how Antarctica's ice was changing under the influence of global warming. – The researchers noticed that the "ice tune" was different after storms blew through. – When the firn melts, it not only makes the ice shelf unstable, but also speeds up the streaming of ice into the ocean.
– However, ice quakes and mysterious tunes aren't the only puzzles scientists have managed to crack.
– In one of the images, researchers spotted a huge enigmatic hole piercing one of the seasonal ice packs, floating in the Lazarev Sea in Antarctica. – When it got warmer, the hole vanished without a trace, once again. – It turned out that such short-lasting gaps could be scars left by cyclonic storms! – The warmer the climate on Earth becomes, the more cyclones rage at the Earth's poles. And therefore, more and more climate-changing gaps appear in ice packs.
– By the way, a 25-year-long survey has also shown that nowadays, Antarctica's ice is disappearing at an alarming speed. During more than 2 decades, the continent has lost a whopping 3 trillion tons of ice! – In any case, not all the mysteries of Antarctica have been solved yet. For example, scientists still can't explain the origin of high-energy particles, literally streaming from the continent's ice!

There’s one unique place on our planet where there are no tourists, no traffic jams, and no high-rise buildings. This place is one of the hardest to reach, and it's almost impossible to survive there if you're unprepared. Right, it's Antarctica, the home of bizarre findings and even more mysterious phenomena. One of them is the deafening roar that's heard from the frozen terrain every night, accompanied by enigmatic icequakes. Something very strange happens in the coldest place on Earth, and this something makes the frozen valleys of Antarctica shake up to several hundred times a night! But while this experience might terrify even the most experienced observer, all the strangeness has a perfectly scientific explanation. Other videos you might like:

– The nightly ice quakes seem to relate to the recent climate changes; in particular, with melting polar ice caps. – Scientists think that the ice quakes that keep shaking glaciers are yet another example of how much stress our planet experiences because of the changing climate. – In 2014, scientists who were monitoring the Ross Ice Shelf in West Antarctica recorded a bloodcurdling acoustic oddity. – This spooky melody was just a reflection of how Antarctica's ice was changing under the influence of global warming. – The researchers noticed that the "ice tune" was different after storms blew through. – When the firn melts, it not only makes the ice shelf unstable, but also speeds up the streaming of ice into the ocean.
– However, ice quakes and mysterious tunes aren't the only puzzles scientists have managed to crack.
– In one of the images, researchers spotted a huge enigmatic hole piercing one of the seasonal ice packs, floating in the Lazarev Sea in Antarctica. – When it got warmer, the hole vanished without a trace, once again. – It turned out that such short-lasting gaps could be scars left by cyclonic storms! – The warmer the climate on Earth becomes, the more cyclones rage at the Earth's poles. And therefore, more and more climate-changing gaps appear in ice packs.
– By the way, a 25-year-long survey has also shown that nowadays, Antarctica's ice is disappearing at an alarming speed. During more than 2 decades, the continent has lost a whopping 3 trillion tons of ice! – In any case, not all the mysteries of Antarctica have been solved yet. For example, scientists still can't explain the origin of high-energy particles, literally streaming from the continent's ice!
