A strange alien-looking creature spreading across the world’s oceans is practically immortal. It’s Turritopsis dohrnii, the “immortal jellyfish” that can avoid death when stressed. In a manner that’s similar to a butterfly reverting to a caterpillar, the jellyfish reverts to its coral-like polyp stage. Then, it goes on to become a jellyfish again, bypassing death altogether. It wasn’t until the 90s that scientists became aware of how amazing this little creature truly is. However, the tiny creature, also called the Benjamin Button jellyfish, is becoming more widely known. Could the immortal jelly reveal clues about fighting cancer or even unlock the secrets of immortality…

The world of UFOs or UAPs (whatever you care to call them) continues to gain more credibility in the mainstream. And, two recent articles from the New York Times are once again pushing the boundaries. Now, we’re going from acknowledging unidentified aerial phenomena are real to suggesting the government knows about specific “off-world” vehicle crash debris. One Times report is entitled, “No Longer in Shadows, Pentagon’s UFO. Unit Will Make Some Findings Public.” The report created a big stir by confirming the over a decade-long study of UAPs in a program within the Office of Naval Intelligence. UFO Findings to Be Made…

Now, one of the oldest chess pieces in history may have been found by archaeologists in the Middle East. Chess can trace its origins to India in the 6th century around 500 AD when it was commonly known as chaturaṅga during the Gupta Empire, considered by historians to have been the Golden Age of India. From there, the game was taken westward by traders along the Silk Road, reaching the Middle East and…

According to Ancient Origins: “The amazing discovery was made at the Sechin Archaeological Project, in the northern province of Casma in the Ancash region. This historic site dates back over 5000 years and it is believed to have been the…

And it turns out that giant-headed reptiles once roamed the Earth. In the aftermath of mass extinction, apex reptilian predators with disproportionately large heads inherited dominion over the planet. This family of creatures is known as Erythrosuchids. Within this family is the clan of archosauromorphs, which includes two species of Garjainia, a reptile that walked on four legs similar to the way crocodiles and Komodo Dragons walk in the present day. The two…
A huge Stone Age monument has been discovered in Poland, and researchers report the site is 360 feet in diameter, making it three times larger than Stonehenge. It is believed the site was used by Neolithic people for at least 250 years, with new features added to it along the way. Ancient Origins notes: “The site was first spotted by a paraglider, in 2015, at Nowe Objezierze near Cedynia, which is in northwest Poland, not far from the German border. In 2016 the archaeologist Marcin Dziewanowski, while investigating satellite images on Google Maps, confirmed that there was an ancient enclosure…

During the middle to the late Cretaceous period, the region of the United States we know now as the Great Plains was submerged under the North American Western Interior Seaway, with Mitchell County, Kansas lying at the edge of the eastern boundary of the water. Just as the oceans are teeming with life today, so too did the…

And the mysterious bit is that the man and the woman in the double grave were buried 100 years apart. Vikings often buried important members of their society inside boat graves, which is a mound that covers a longboat. Some of these boats have even been recovered and are currently on display in Denmark at the Viking Ship Museum. In addition to the bodies of the deceased, Vikings would bury items they believed a person would need…

Illness is part of being human, no matter how much we don’t like it. It helps build up our immune systems and makes us grateful when we are healthy. Unfortunately, there are some illnesses that some humans can’t overcome, but we have survived as a species because most of us at least overcome the common stuff. Neanderthals, however, were not so fortunate. An ear infection…
