Our world map was finally complete in the 1820s, with the discovery of Antarctica. But why stop at the end of the earth? Or the moon? What’s the farthest we could go? Despite all our advancements, for a very long time, the farthest man could travel was restricted to distances on the earth. In April of 1961, that all changed when humanity became a spacefaring species. The Russian cosmonaut, Yuri Gagarin, was the first man in space. He blasted into orbit on a 108-minute flight high above Earth. The Americans followed a few months later. Other videos you might like:

– In 1969, the Apollo 11 mission landed the first two men on the Moon. – Another great feat was achieved the next year in April 1970, when the crew of NASA's Apollo 13 swung wide around the far side of the moon at an altitude of 158 miles, putting them 248,655 miles away from Earth.
– Humans kept exploring in the hope that maybe there’s something beyond the Milky Way as well. At this point, astronomers noticed that some stars were dimmer than others. – Leavitt had studied thousands of Variable stars; stars whose brightness, as seen from the Earth, fluctuates. She found that if certain stars, known as Cepheid variables, pulsate at the same rate, they have the same brightness. – Around this time, work was also going on to install the Hooker telescope at Mount Wilson Observatory, California. This would be the world's largest telescope from 1917 to 1949. – The farthest galaxy observed is named EGS-zs8-1. The light from it took 13.1 billion years to reach us. – No one really knows what lies farthest from us, or how big our universe really is. Some say that the universe is edgeless, while others believe in a multiverse hypothesis. #spacefacts #brightside #galaxy Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

More A Japanese Company Started Adopting Cats to Reduce Work Stress Videos

When you board an airplane, you expect a pleasant flight with as much comfort as you could get. But your comfort — and safety too, for that matter, — heavily depends on your friendly flight attendants. Of course, they won’t say anything, but there are things they frown upon — and one that they just loathe. But I’m getting ahead of myself. So, if you really want a nice journey, you should keep in mind not to do those things that earn you the wrath of the flight attendants. Other videos you might like:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XVYXErxau-U TIMESTAMPS
Going to the airplane bathroom while boarding 0:34
Taking too much carry-on 1:23
Bringing sources of strong smells 2:24
Leaving your headphones on 4:03
Asking to switch seats 4:41
Getting up while the “Fasten your seatbelts” sign is on 5:19
Constantly pressing the call button 6:01
Asking about the menu 6:42
Not giving your trash to the flight attendants 7:15
Not listening to the safety presentation 8:17
Touching flight attendants to get their attention 9:00 #flightattendants #planerules #brightside SUMMARY
– When there’s a line of passengers waiting to use the bathroom while everyone else is looking for their seats, delays are guaranteed. – So when you take too much carry-on with you, two unpleasant things happen at once: one, you make other people wait while you put all your stuff up there, and two, those people who’ve been waiting for you can’t put their own bags into the bins because you’ve hogged them.
– Even pleasant smells can get on your nerves when there’s just too much of them. That perfumed piece of handmade soap you carry on with you has a wonderful aroma, but only for the first few minutes.
– When a flight attendant approaches you to ask a question, it’s polite to take off your headphones and pay them your full attention. – Flight attendants confess that one of the most frustrating things is when passengers start trying to persuade them to change their seat assignments. The thing is, they simply can’t do that.
– When taking off, taxiing, and landing, as well as during turbulence, you should stay seated and fasten your belt in case anything happens.
– If you insistently press the call button for no good reason, chances are you’ll be asked to stop doing that — or even ignored completely. – When you ask a flight attendant what they have, you make other passengers wait longer and get edgy — consider this when you take your time ordering your food and drinks.
– One of the downsides of working as a flight attendant is that you only get paid for the hours of actual flight. All the work you do while on land is free. – Safety presentations are really similar on most airlines, but it’s still worth it to refresh them in your memory before the flight. – It’s absolutely not fine to poke or grab a flight attendant for any reason, just like any other person. Some attendants say, though, that there are people who find it okay to touch them by the knee or ankle when they pass by.

More 11 Things You Should Avoid Doing on the Plane Videos

You can build powerful arms, work your abs, and develop massive thigh muscles, but the lower pecs are a different story. Many guys find this area the hardest to fully develop, no matter how much they train. But if you know (and regularly do) the 9 exercises of this chest workout, you'll see the results pretty soon! And be sure to pay attention to the tips at the end of the video. They will make your lower chest workouts even more effective! Other videos you might like:

Lower Pulley Cable Crossover 6:34
Push-Ups 7:09
Some useful tips 8:00 #lowerchest #bigmuscles #brightside Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ SUMMARY:
– #1. The decline bench press is the movement that targets precisely the lower part of your pectorals. As a result, your chest becomes wide, round, and defined. To make this exercise more effective, retract your shoulder blades and control the weight at all times. – #2. The decline dumbbell fly will help you get a good stretch as well as contraction. Besides developing your lower pecs, the decline dumbbell fly also trains your upper chest, biceps, and the front of your shoulders. – #3. The main trick while doing chest dips is to lean forward and put pressure on your chest rather than your triceps or shoulders. Also, your elbows should be a bit wider than your shoulders – this way, you'll exercise your chest better. – #4. The machine chest press not only targets your lower pecs, but also develops your biceps and deltoids. To make this exercise as effective as possible, retract your shoulder blades and try to tighten mostly your chest muscles. – #5. Even though dumbbell pull-overs work mostly your pecs, they're also pretty effective for training your triceps, abs, upper back muscles, and glutes. – #6. Cable crossover exercise doesn't involve any triceps activity, that's why it allows you to concentrate on your lower chest. Remember to squeeze your chest muscles when you're in the contracted position. – #8. The seated machine fly is a great exercise for working both your inner and outer pecs, as well as your anterior delts. Remember to breathe normally while doing this exercise and don't press into your feet: after all, the purpose is to train your pecs, not your legs. – #9. While most people consider push-ups a warm-up exercise, it's actually quite effective for developing your chest muscles. The main trick to make this area work better is to position your hands wider than shoulder-width apart. Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz —————————————————————————————-

More 9 Quick Exercises to Get Bigger Lower Chest In No Time Videos

Few people have ever seen the loneliest place on our planet, Point Nemo. Nope, it’s not in Antarctica. This spot lies more than 13,000 ft deep in the South Pacific Ocean. But that's not the only amazing thing Point Nemo is famous for. Once, someone decided that it would make a perfect place to crash defunct satellites – and that's how Point Nemo has become the world's only spacecraft graveyard. The Oceanic Point of Inaccessibility, which is another name for Point Nemo, is the most remote place on Earth. In fact, it's so isolated, that at any given moment, the people closest to this location are probably astronauts! The thing is, this spot has a much closer connection to space than you might think!

Some baffling facts about Point Nemo 7:55 #spacecrafts #space #brightside Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ SUMMARY:
– There are two ways to get rid of dead satellites. If a satellite's orbit lies very high above our planet, it's easier to blast it into outer space than return it to Earth.
– But if a satellite isn't large and is moving relatively low, engineers use what fuel is left in its tanks to slow it down. As a result, the thing just falls out of its orbit and starts to approach Earth at the breakneck speed of over 17,000 miles per hour.
– What about the big stuff, like large satellites or even space stations? The problem with them is that they might not burn up entirely before they reach the surface of our Earth, which is a terrible safety risk. – That's when the Point of Inaccessibility comes into play. Aerospace engineers appreciate that they "can put things down" in Point Nemo without hitting anything.
– Since 1971, when Point Nemo was chosen for a spacecraft graveyard, space agencies have already dumped more than 260 dead satellites into the ocean. The largest spacecraft is Russia's MIR space lab, buried under 2 miles of water.
– Dead spacecraft aren't tucked carefully together on the bottom. Since even large spacecraft burn up as they enter the atmosphere, it's not a whole object that touches the surface of the water. – If all the space around our planet gets crowded with satellites, both functioning and dead, people will face the serious problem of space junk.
– The most dangerous thing might be one large piece of space debris hitting another. Not that it happens often, but it does happen. – Most modern spacecraft have built-in systems that help to de-orbit them and land in the designated area. – The most hilarious thing about the Point of Inaccessibility is that the man who discovered it has never been there! It was 1992 when Hrvoje Lukatela, a Croatian survey engineer, used a computer program that figured out which spot was the farthest distance from all other land coordinates.

More A Unique Spacecraft Graveyard Found in the Most Remote Place on Earth Videos

Traveling by train is one of the safest ways to get somewhere. But what's that? You feel it accelerate, and soon it's already moving at breakneck speed, ignoring stop signs, stations, and other trains. You're pinching yourself in a futile attempt to wake up, but it’s no nightmare – you’re on a runaway train! It was a cold winter night on January 11, 2004. Two people were supposed to arrive at the train yard that night: 31-year-old engineer Eduard and his 24-year-old assistant Alexander. But when it was time for their shift to begin, the engineer was nowhere to be seen. They eventually got hold of Eduard, and the engineer simply said that he’d overslept. His health readings were normal, and he was totally sober. Everything was fine, nothing out of routine here, except maybe the fact that instead of his uniform, the man was wearing a suit and tie, as if he was going to some important event. But nobody seemed to find that odd… Other videos you might like:

Insane engineer 6:21
“Crazy Eights” incident 7:02 #trains #danger #brightside Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ SUMMARY:
– After the doctors gave him the green light, the engineer was ready to go. He climbed up into the cab, and that's when his assistant noticed another oddity. Eduard didn't put a new tape into the train's speedometer, which was a serious violation of the rules.
– After the train left the loading station, the engineer broke protocol once more by refusing to check if the brake system was working correctly.
– As the train came toward the railway haul Volkhovstroy 2 – Kukol’, the station operator reported that there was another train approaching the station. Alexander the assistant screamed in horror when the engineer hit the controls to accelerate!
– When Alexander tried to bring his co-worker to his senses, the much stronger engineer answered back with physical threats. – At 2:58am, the train blew through the red light at Kukol’ station, careened on a totally unscheduled route, and dashed toward the main track. – Everything changed at Valya station. At 3:02am, when the runaway had already blown through the previous stop at Myslino, the Valya station operator came up with the idea to cut the power on the line.
– At 3:45am, the train finally lost its forward momentum and came to a stop. Alexander the assistant immediately saw his only chance to escape. – When the police got to the train at 4:14am, they discovered the engineer on the floor, completely out of it. The delusional man was taken to the hospital for mental health treatment. – Had the train continued its crazed path to destruction, it would’ve made it to the town of Tikhvin, population: 60,000. – It happened on May 15, 2001 in northwest Ohio. Locomotive #8888 (hence the nickname) was moving a string of 47 freight cars on the Walbridge – Kenton line. – Things were going smoothly until the train's 35-year-old engineer noticed that one switch was strangely misaligned. The man decided that since the train was moving quite slowly, he’d have more than enough time to get down, fix the switch, and climb right back up into his cabin. – Before the engineer left the cab, he’d set the wrong brake.
– When the engineer tried to switch a special brake that would’ve slowed the train down to a crawl, he accidentally set the engine not to brake but to accelerate! – At first, they tried to stop the train with the help of a portable derailer, but these attempts failed. Then the police started to shoot at the emergency switch, which serves to cut off the fuel supply. – As soon as the runaway's speed dropped to 11 mph (18 kph), engineer Jon Hosfeld, who’d been waiting up ahead, managed to climb into the cab and shut down the engine.
