What happens when we sleep?
It turns out that there are two separate processes in the brain that help us create sleep. One is called your Sleep Drive, and the other is called your Sleep Rhythm. Sleep Drive is a lot like hunger. Throughout the day, much like hunger, you get hungrier and hungrier, and when you eat, your hunger begins to dissipate. Similarly, when a cell eats a piece of glucose, something comes out the back end, and one of those things is called adenosine. Adenosine works its way through our system and gets to a very specific receptor site in our brain. As adenosine accumulates, you get sleepier and sleepier and sleepier. That's Sleep Drive.

SIX DEAD PEOPLE Who Came Back to LIFE at Their OWN Funerals

Here are some amazing stories of people who were thought to be dead but miraculously came back to life.

The Ground Over Yellowstone Is Rising – Is It Going to Erupt?
Yellowstone National Park sits on top of a massive super volcano, leading to powerful geysers and hot springs. Researchers discovered in 2015 that the magma chamber underneath Yellowstone is much larger than previously thought. There are two reservoirs of magma that could fill the Grand Canyon 11 times. The chambers push against the ground, causing Yellowstone to rise 1 to 2 inches each year. Yellowstone is an active volcano with a volcanic explosivity index of 8 out of 8, indicating a potential apocalyptic event if it erupts. In March 2023, 354 earthquakes were recorded in the region, with the largest being a magnitude 3.7.
