FAQ
What is the most mysterious place on earth?
Antarctica is home to the most mysterious and remote place on Earth.
What is it that makes this place so interesting? Because it is unlike anything else on Earth.
It is remote and difficult to reach. There is much more to this place than meets the eyes.
You will also find some of the oddest wildlife species in this natural wonder.
So let's explore how this remarkable destination became famous for its mystery.
Antarctica: The South Pole
Antarctica is named for no one. Some believe it means "land of ice." Some believe it means "land of ice". Others believe it is Greek mythology.
In ancient Greece, Antarktis was the name given to the island where Zeus' twin brothers were born. According to legend, one of the twins was born in winter. The term antarctic is derived from this.
Others believe that the name is a combination of the Greek words anti and tropos which mean against and turn. This would mean that the land was turned away by the sun.
Whatever the reason Antarctica has held a special fascination for people, it is undeniable.
It is the coldest, windiest, driest and highest continent. It is too cold for trees, plants and animals.
And yet, this frozen wasteland is teeming with life.
About 90 percent of all living things on Earth live here. You can find approximately half the world's species of animal and plant plants here.
What is the secret to Antarctica's unique environment? Here water freezes to ice and not evaporates into the atmosphere.
This causes large amounts of ice to float above ground.
These floating glaciers make up 80%. They are growing in size every year.
Since 1960, the Antarctic ice sheets has grown 60ft.
If the melting continues, sea level could rise up to 200ft. This could lead to massive flooding across the globe.
However, not all scientists believe this to be bad news. Some scientists believe that global warming can be beneficial. According to scientists, global warming could be good for us because the melting of the ice sheets will accelerate, which can lead to floods that release toxic chemicals into our soil and bodies.
However, others caution that this theory sounds a lot like a plot in a science fiction movie.
What dark secrets are there in Hollywood?
Hollywood is filled with secret societies. Some are cult-like groups where members follow strict rules and rituals, while others are simply clubs for those who share common interests.
Some of the most powerful organizations in the industry are even more dangerous. These include the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America), the organization that sets film ratings and RIAA(Recording Industry Association of America), the company that sets music licensing fees.
Numerous unions and guilds also represent actors, directors, writers, producers, etc. Large corporations own most major studios and networks of television.
It doesn't matter how secretive a group might seem, someone somewhere knows what they are doing. We shouldn't fear these people.
Instead, embrace them. Because they can help us make better decisions.
They can tell us which movies and songs are likely to be successful, as well as what books and novels will be most popular.
They allow us to make informed decisions about what we buy, watch and listen to.
We can trust them so we can ignore their advice when it doesn't suit our taste.
Because we have chosen to ignore their power, they are even more powerful. They become the ultimate arbiters for taste.
You are free to ignore their messages if that bothers you.
Let's take a closer look at some of the less-known, yet still very real Hollywood secret clubs.
And see why they're so important.
Do you wonder how much trash is produced each day across the globe?
According to the United Nations, the average person produces over 2.5 pounds of daily waste.That adds up to over 25 billion pounds of garbage per year!
Most of this trash ends up in landfill dumps or incinerators.But what happens when those dumpsters get full? Where does all that rubbish go?Well, most of it gets shipped out of the country. It is then shipped out and dumped in other countries. This pollutes the ecosystems. But now we know, thanks to one man. Mike Sexton is his full name. He is the owner of Waste Watchers. His job involves monitoring the movements and routes of trash trucks across North America. Then he reports back to us about what happens next.
Sexton claims he is very satisfied with his job. CNN asked Sexton if he thought it was a lot of fun. "We see these big trucks coming through town, so we'll keep following them. "Sexton began to follow truck drivers around 20 years ago.
"It's all I felt," he stated.
Sexton loved the story about the driver who pulled over at an abandoned gas station close to Los Angeles. Sexton described, "The guy was looking somewhere to put his load." "He saw the building as he drove down the road. He backed up and entered the building. "There was a pair of large, full-sized roll-off boxes. The man removed everything from the truck and started to load it again. He then looked around and decided to load everything. There were lots of old tires, rags furniture, mattresses, mattresses, cans, cans, and other items. "It was a complete mess. But it had been cleared out before he arrived. There wasn't any trash anywhere."
This begs the question: Why? It is because the location used to belong to a recycling centre. People who found out about this facility would drive to it to recycle their trash. Sexton explained that people would bring home their household items, and then take them to the building. After they were done, they would dispose of the empty containers.
Now, because of the way the law works, once a container reaches its destination, it cannot be opened.So no matter how often someone takes something out of it, the thing will never be emptied.Every time the truck comes by, it has to start over again. This could happen hundreds times per week. Finally, the truck stops running completely due to its excessive junk. The owner eventually abandons the vehicle.
Trash isn’t the only problem we face on the planet.
Many of these tiny plastic pieces end up in landfills and incinerators. Some are washed into rivers and oceans. Others end up with fish in their stomachs.
Experts warn that the world may soon face a shortage of food if we don't make any changes. One expert said, "If we keep going as we are going, we're never going to make it," but most people don’t seem concerned.
What is the most secretive place in the world, and why?
The answer to that question may shock you. It might even make you uncomfortable because it challenges our perception of reality and how we live. However, there's a reason for this place to exist. It's not what we would expect.
It was known as the City of God to the ancient Greeks. It was also called the City of Destruction in the Bible.
It is called Kashi (Kashmir in India). It's known in Russia as Novgorod.
However, in America it is called The Town that Disappeared.
A small town in western New York State, with a population of 1,200, vanished without a trace. No bodies, cars, houses, nothing was left behind except a road sign pointing to its former location.
This little community vanished and no trace remains to indicate where or when it disappeared. Some say it was swallowed up by the Earth. Others claim that a meteorite hit destroyed it. Others claim it was taken away by aliens.
Regardless of what happened, residents of this once-thriving town are certain that their town won't be forgotten forever. They had just moved from one town to the other.
There is even a website dedicated to tracking the disappearance of the lost city of Zugspitz.
You might be wondering where this town went. It's actually in Switzerland!
Zugspitze is situated on the border between Germany und Austria. A huge lake, Lake Zugspitze, is located just beyond the summit.
It has always fascinated me that so many towns have disappeared, yet some still remain. Why do some disappear while others survive? I decided that I would investigate.
I wanted more information about the mysterious disappearing of towns. What causes a town to disappear? What makes a place disappear?
There are many theories to explain the phenomenon of disappearing towns. One theory holds that a town disappears if all its buildings are demolished. Another theory is that the town moves to another place. A third theory states that the town didn't exist at all.
Theories aside, the fact remains that dozens of towns around the globe have been swallowed up by the ground. This video examines the history and current status of these places.

American history's secret societies and clubs
The secret societies and clubs in American History are fascinating for many reasons. One reason is because of the mystery surrounding them. Their effect on society is another reason.
Secret societies and clubs have been used throughout America’s history in order to promote ideas that might otherwise be considered taboo. These ideas include antisemitism or racism. These groups also helped spread political ideologies such as communism and socialism.
The Ku Klux Klan is America's most well-known organization. This group was founded in 1865 following the Civil War. Its purpose was to protect white men from African Americans.
Other organizations that were created in this period include the Knights Templar (Freemasons), and Odd Fellows. All of these groups shared similar beliefs and goals.
Another interesting aspect of secret societies is that they often had memberships restricted to males only. These secret societies also included women. These women included Emma Goldman (Margaret Sanger) and Susan B Anthony.
Not only the above mentioned groups, but also other secret societies didn't share the same ideals. For example, the Order of Skull & Bones was founded in 1832. Their goal: to create an elite American class.
