Hey, guys! Today, I'm setting off on a journey toward the nearest black hole. Yep, risky and brave, that's me! But don't worry – I'll keep you in the know by live-streaming my entire adventure! By the way, this is not a solo journey. I'll have someone to talk to during the flight, and he can help me if things get really tough! My travel buddy's name is Liam. Liam is a robot with artificial intelligence. Space distances are seriously long. That's why traveling there would take way more time than you'd like to spend on the road! For example, Voyager 1, a space probe launched in 1977, was traveling out of the Solar System at a speed of 40,000 miles per hour. If my spacecraft moved at the same speed, it would take me a whole 77,000 years to get to the nearest star! But luckily, my spaceship is much faster than that. So let the journey begin!

– The International Space Station is the most expensive single object in the world. This money would buy you 250 Boeing 747s or two Louvre's with all the paintings and artwork inside! – Among satellites, there are low and high flyers. And while the lowest flying ones move approximately 1,250 miles away from Earth, the highest reach 22,000 miles into space. – Space distances are so vast, you can't even calculate them in miles. That's why scientists use the term "astronomic unit," which equals 93 million miles – the distance from the sun to Earth. That means I'm 9.3 billion miles away from our planet! – There's another trial ahead – the Oort Cloud. That means two things: first – we're on the outskirts of the Solar System; and second – we'll have to get through a cloud of icy objects orbiting the Sun at a distance of a 100,000 astronomic units!
– We're heading out of the Solar System just one-tenth of a light-year later. By the way, if you were trying to reach this point by car, the trip would take you more than 19 million years. – In the center of pretty much every galaxy, there’s a supermassive black hole. For example, one is sitting right at the heart of our Milky Way galaxy, about 27,000 light-years away from Earth.
– A black hole is an eerie place where those laws of physics we studied at school stop working. If a massive star runs out of its star fuel, it becomes super-dense and buckles under its own weight, collapsing inward and bringing space-time along.
– I won't go further than the horizon, aka the point of no return. Once an object crosses this invisible line, it can't turn back, even if it's changed its mind. – Liam says he's ready to start his journey. There he goes, bravely plunging toward the black hole while I'm recording everything that's happening to him. – Liam just froze, as if a gigantic finger has pressed a pause button, and now, some force is stretching him thinner and thinner! – It's the infamous spaghettification, which happens in a super-strong non-homogenous gravitational field!
– Liam is in a state of free-fall now, and feels no more stretching, scalding radiation, or gravity. Unfortunately, the connection is lost, and he can't tell me anything about the inside of the black hole.

That’s What You Forget to Do Every Morning
We all have our morning routine, right? Alarm goes off, we hit Snooze a few times. Perhaps you work out in the morning, grab a shower, have breakfast and that delicious cup of java. All of our routines probably look pretty similar. But did you know that there’s something you should be doing every morning — that you’re not even thinking about? It has to do with your morning shower! If you shower at night, you might want to change up your routine for a better start to your day. As your morning shower session is coming to an end, turn on the cold water to finish up. That’s right – a cold shower in the morning is really good for you, and will give you a nice dose of energy to start your day! Other videos you might like:

– Muscle recovery 4:16
– Reducing stress 5:00
– A good night's sleep 6:02 #coldshower #goodmorning #brightside SUMMARY:
– As your morning shower session is coming to an end, turn on the cold water to finish up. A cold shower in the morning is really good for you, and will give you a nice dose of energy to start your day! – Finishing off a hot shower with a cold one is good for our hair and skin, especially acne-prone skin.
– A blast of cold water also increases blood flow throughout the body. As we tense up from the cold, our heart will beat faster, really helping that blood to pump and flow, increasing circulation.
– Lymph fluids clean out the cells in the body, making sure that no waste sticks around and makes you sick. – Cold showers also promote weight loss!
– Cold water helps with muscle recovery and soreness. This method is very popular with track runners, swimmers, and cyclists.
– An icy rinse at the end of your hot shower will also ease stress and depression.
– Frigid water also zaps all the cold receptors in the skin, sending tons of electrical impulses to the brain, which is a huge mood booster!
– A cold shower at night will help you sleep better! – In Sweden, it’s common to let kids take naps outside in the cold weather; studies show that these children were more resistant to disease and sickness, had an increased flow of T “helper” cells, and slept more soundly at night!
– But please keep in mind, in order to take advantage of the full benefits of a cold shower, one should be taken every day, regularly, for at least 6 weeks. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

20+ Incredible Space Facts That Aren’t In Textbooks
Our good old Solar System is actually a pretty bizarre place, what with all its out-of-this-world phenomena that we humans haven't managed to explain yet! There are rumors that a gigantic, undiscovered planet is hiding behind Neptune, volcanoes on Pluto spew ice, and a colossal canyon on Mars can accommodate the whole US territory, and most of Cleveland! Have you ever heard that winds on Venus blow 50 times faster than the planet rotates? Or that there's an ocean that consists of metallic hydrogen, and its depth is a staggering 25,000 miles, which is almost the same as the circumference of the Earth? Well, let's figure out if it's true by talking about the most mystifying Solar System facts. Other videos you might like:

– The Solar System is 4.6 billion years old! So old, it’s a Senior Solar System.
– Wanna get away? You'll have to travel 11 billion miles away from Earth before even leaving the Solar System.
– The Planet Uranus or Uranus – you can’t win either way — rotates on its side, and astronomers have no idea why the planet has chosen such an unusual position.
– Our Sun is insanely massive! Want some proof? Well, 99.86% of all the mass in the Solar System is the mass of the Sun – in particular, the hydrogen and helium it's made of. – Earth might not be the only tectonically active planet in the Solar System. Astronomers have spotted some landforms looking like cliffs on Mercury! – Behind the orbit of Neptune, lies the mysterious Kuiper Belt, filled with massive icy objects. The most curious thing about this space formation, though, is that scientists can’t explain the pattern of its movement.
– While we have volcanoes spilling lava on our planet, the volcanoes on Pluto spit… ice! – One of Saturn's moons, Lapetus, has a unique color – it's two-toned. One of its hemispheres is light, and the other is eerily dark. – The Sun's atmosphere stretches far beyond its visible surface. And our planet is right within its reach. – The Sun's atmosphere is hotter than the surface of the star. While on the surface, the temperatures reach 10,000 degrees F, the upper atmosphere heats up to millions of degrees! – Our Solar System isn't the only one in the Milky Way Galaxy. Far from it, the galaxy we live in houses about 100 billion solar systems! – Since Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun, many people simply assume that it's also the hottest. And that's where they get it wrong because, in fact, Venus (which is about 30 million miles further from the Sun than Mercury) is way hotter! – The most enormous volcano in the whole Solar System (at least, that we know of) is on Mars! – The valley called Valles Marineris, on Mars, is more than 10 times larger than Earth's Grand Canyon. – On the surface of Jupiter, there’s a weird region that's called the Great Red Spot. Recently, astronomers have concluded that this spot is actually a storm that’s been raging on the planet for centuries.

What If You Damaged Something in a Museum by Accident?
Have you ever visited a museum and noticed that there doesn't seem to be very much separating the public from the precious art or artifacts on display? Often, it's nothing more than a velvet rope, and sometimes even less. What would happen if you tripped and stumbled right into a shelf of priceless Etruscan urns? Well, they would obviously break, but what happens to you after picking the shards of three-thousand-year-old ceramic out of your hair? In 2010, a young woman was attending a class at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City when she tripped and accidentally punched a hole in a piece of priceless artwork. The painting in question was Picasso’s “The Actor,” and was valued at 130 million dollars right until the unnamed student opened a six-inch gash in the canvas… Other videos you might like:

Is it modern art or a pile of garbage? 🤔 5:38
Why don’t museums take stronger steps to protect the items? 7:39
A word to the wise 8:33 #museums #artwork #brightside SUMMARY:
– The tear may have been big, but was near the edge and far from the focus of the painting. After three months of restoration, it was as good as new.
– The museum didn’t even charge her the cost of restoring the painting.
– The absolute worst thing that happens is that the perpetrators find themselves banned from the museum, but even that’s extremely rare. – A few years before "The Actor" lost its boxing match with the young woman, a man in Cambridge tripped over his shoelaces and completely destroyed three irreplaceable 17th-century vases.
– In 2016, an elderly couple severely damaged one of the exhibits at Pennsylvania’s National Watch and Clock Museum. – As with similar incidents in other museums, the couple was let go without so much as a stern talking to.
– Pretty much anything you find in a museum will have an insurance policy covering it.
– Even museum employees usually won't lose their jobs over an honest mistake. – A group of porters in England found this out when they threw away what they thought was an empty box. It was later revealed to contain a painting valued at over 120 thousand dollars.
– In 2014, something similar happed in Italy when a janitor mistook some modern art for a pile of literal garbage. – What all those incidents had in common is that the damage was unintentional.
– Securing every single exhibit is so expensive that many museums don’t feel like it’s worth the cost. – If you go to a museum, be careful. Great works of art can endure for centuries, and future generations will be grateful there aren't too many holes in our cultural heritage. – But hey, if you do, don't feel too bad. No one is perfect after all, and we've all had moments of clumsiness over the years. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

A 9,000-Year-Old City Was Just Discovered
If someone asked you what the oldest city in the world was, you might give a lot of different answers. Your first guess might be Athens or Rome, or maybe somewhere in ancient Egypt. All great guesses, but when it comes to age, none of them hold a candle to the 9000-year-old settlement recently found just outside the town of Motza, Israel, a quick five-mile drive from the capital city of Jerusalem. Our journey of discovery begins, as all the best ones do, with a highway in the desert. Workers from Israel’s National Transport Infrastructure Company discovered the site while excavating the network of tunnels that would connect the new road to a nearby highway. Little did anyone realize, they’d nearly paved over one of the most significant archaeological finds of this decade… Other videos you might like:

Animation is created by Bright Side. SUMMARY:
