FAQ
What is the most mysterious area on earth?
Antarctica is one of the most mysterious places on Earth.
We find this place so fascinating. Because it is unlike any place on Earth.
It is isolated, remote, and very hard to visit. But there is more to this site than meets the eye.
You will also find some of the oddest wildlife species in this natural wonder.
Let's now see how this amazing destination came to be so well-known for its mystery.
Antarctica: The South Pole
Antarctica is not known by anyone. Some say it means "land on ice." Others believe it comes from Greek mythology.
Antarktis in ancient Greece was the name given the island where Zeus' twin brother brothers were born. One of the twins was said to have been born in winter. This is why the word "antarctic" was chosen.
Others believe that the name comes from the Greek words anti meaning against and tropos meaning to turn. This would translate to land that is turned away from 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 to support trees, plants, and animals.
Yet, the frozen desert is alive with life.
It houses approximately 90% of all Earth's living organisms. There are about 50% of the world's animal, plant and plant species.
What is Antarctica? Here, water freezes into ice instead of evaporating into the air.
This causes large masses to form of ice which float high above the ground.
These floating glaciers make up 80%. And they're growing larger every year.
The Antarctic ice has grown 60 feet so far since 1960.
If the melting continues, the sea level will rise by up to 200 feet. That could cause massive flooding around the globe.
This is not necessarily bad news. Some scientists think global warming might 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.
But others warn that this theory sounds like a plot from a science fiction movie.
How does the brain control the functions of your body?
To ensure that other organs and muscle functions work together, the brain sends messages. Everything that happens within your body is controlled by the brain. It tells both your stomach and lungs what to do; it also controls your legs and arms.
Your brain is composed of billions and billions nerve cells, connected in groups called neurons. Action potentials on Axons are an electrical signal that neurons send to each other. Each neuron has its own cell membrane around its nucleus. There are channels within the membrane that allow ions such a sodium or potassium to enter and exit the cell. The neuron fires when there is ion movement.
When a neuron is activated, neurotransmitters release chemicals into the space between it and the next neuron. Neurotransmitters bind to receptors on the second neuron, opening ion channels so ions can pass in and out of the channel. As a result, the second neuron fires too.
When a presynaptic nerve receives an impulse, neurotransmitter release takes place. The impulse travels along the synaptic pathway that connects both neurons. The transmitter binds with the receptors of the postsynaptic nerve, activating the firing of the postsynaptic neurons.
Communication within the nervous system is possible thanks to neurotransmitters. They coordinate brain activity among different parts.
Is there an Hollywood blacklist?
There is an Hollywood blacklist.
However, the list isn’t public. As far as we know, the names aren't even known. This is why it matters.
The reason behind the secrecy was that blacklisted directors and actors wouldn't be able find work. Thus, they would leave the industry and studios will lose money. This would mean that they would cut back on movie production. This would result in fewer opportunities available for blacklisted filmmakers. This would make them bankrupt.
This could mean more victims.
A contract may be required to agree to not speak against employers if someone attempts to make an Oscar winning movie. This applies to any producer or director who wishes to be nominated.
Producers often pressure directors to cut scenes from their films. Or directors threaten to walk out of projects that don’t match their vision.
This is why Hollywood has created a blacklist. You'll likely become unemployed if you say bad things about your employer. This is bad news for anyone.
Problem is, many people have been falsely charged. They've had the toil to clear their name.
This is unacceptable behavior and must be stopped. Everybody should be able to freely express themselves.
Also, we must take down the Hollywood blacklist.
What is the most secretive location in the entire world?
This question might surprise you. This may make you feel uncomfortable as it challenges your perception of reality and the way we live. But there is a reason that this place exists. It isn't what you would expect.
It was also called the City of God in ancient Greek. According to the Bible, it was called the City of Destruction.
It is also called Kashi in India (Kashmir). It's also known as Novgorod in Russia.
However, in America it is called The Town that Disappeared.
One small community in western New York State with 1,200 residents vanished without a trace. A road sign pointing to the former location of the town was all that was left, except for a few bodies and cars.
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 say it was destroyed in a meteorite collision. Some believe that it was taken by aliens.
The residents of this once prosperous community believe that whatever happened, their town is not gone forever. They had just relocated to another town.
Even a website exists to help track down the disappearances of the lost city Zugspitz.
You might be wondering where this town went. Well, it's in Switzerland!
You can find Zugspitze at the border of Austria and Germany. Just beyond the summit of the mountain is a huge lake called Lake Zugspitze.
It has always fascinated my that so many towns have disappeared but others still exist. Why does some vanish while others remain? I decided to investigate.
I was curious about the disappearing towns. Is it possible for a place to vanish? What makes a place disappear?
There are several theories behind the disappearing of towns. One theory holds that a town disappears if all its buildings are demolished. Another theory holds that the town simply relocates to another location. A third theory states that the town didn't exist at all.
Although theories may be a bit speculative, it is a fact that numerous towns have been destroyed by the elements. This video explores the history of these towns and examines their current state.
