EVOLUTION OF CELLPHONES
What if cellphones were so powerful that they could mutate the shape of our bones? This is a surprising new topic that’s recently been popping up all over the media. It stems from a scientific report suggesting that using phones and tablets can cause serious and long-lasting changes to our bodies, and not in a way that you might think.

ASTEROID COLLISION
What would actually happen if an asteroid were on a collision course with our planet? We know that hundreds of pieces of space rock fall through our atmosphere every single year, but luckily, they burn up on entry. They are simply not large enough to have any noticeable impact. However, there's evidence to suggest that Earth has experienced several large strikes throughout its history, so there is every possibility that it could happen again.

BLACK HOLES
Of all the powerful and destructive forces in the universe, black holes remain some of the most mysterious. In recent years, astronomers have studied far more of them and discovered that not only do they come in all shapes and sizes, but rather than being stationary in space, some are actually moving, and some even travel at incredible speeds. But what are the consequences of this, and how does it affect the surrounding regions? We’re only just starting to find out.

SLEEP DEPRIVATION
You know that awful feeling you get when you're sleep-deprived: your brain feels fuzzy, your body aches with fatigue, and you could literally fall asleep anywhere. In our modern, fast-paced society, it's become a common struggle to get a full night's rest. While you might think that a simple cup of coffee or an occasional energy drink will cure your tiredness, researchers are now finding that sleep deprivation can have far more serious consequences on your body than you might think.

THE BIG CRUNCH THEORY
We've all heard about the Big Bang, and I am really sad that the series has ended. Well, here, of course, I'm talking about the Big Bang that actually started everything. Again, most people have heard of that, but what do you know about the Big Crunch? And no, I'm not talking about some random candy bar. While most scientists believe that our universe began with a massive burst of energy, opinions remain divided about how everything will one day come to an end. There's a range of theories, such as the Big Freeze and the Big Rip, but the one considered to be the most likely scenario is the Big Crunch.

Internet evil or boon?
Just imagine what life would be without the internet. Some of us actually remember the time before everything was connected, but the thought of living without smartphones, maps, and search engines at our fingertips now seems completely alien to us. But how is our increasing reliance on the online world affecting us? Our relationships, sources of information, and the way we interact with each other are rapidly changing, and there are even noticeable effects occurring within our brains. With more and more devices relying on the internet, it's no surprise that worldwide access is continually increasing. In 2016, an estimated 3.5 billion people across the world accessed online services. The top three countries were China, with 721 million users, followed by India, and then the US, with 290 million users. By far, the most common language used online is English, followed by Chinese and Spanish.

Telescope Made for Sea
Telescopes Built At Bottom Of The Sea Across the world, telescopes are the best way for us to see what's out there in space. But did you know that there's actually one being built with a completely different purpose? It's a telescope at the bottom of the sea. [Music] The KM3NeT is a next-generation deep-sea research facility that's being built between 1.5 and 3 miles deep in the waters of the Mediterranean Sea. This research infrastructure will house telescopes that aren't designed to look at light, like the ones we're more familiar with, but instead will be looking through the water at neutrinos. There will be two telescopes: one known as ARCA, which will allow scientists to search for neutrinos that have been produced by distant astrophysical sources, such as gamma-ray bursts, colliding stars, and supernovae; and the other telescope, called ORCA, which is focused on learning more about the properties of neutrinos that have been formed in the Earth's atmosphere.

Exploring reality of time travel
IS TIME TRAVEL POSSIBLE Have you ever dreamt of traveling through time? I'm sure we all have. Maybe you want to go back to the past to see how things were, or even change something. Or would you prefer to go into the future to see how things turn out? Time travel is a mainstay of science fiction, with books and movies imagining the benefits and risks of such an ability. But is time travel actually possible? And if so, what do we need to be able to do it?
