The most advanced physicists on the planet are now saying what ancient mystics wrote thousands of years ago.
Reality is not what it appears to be.
And the people in power have known this for a very long time.
Here are 7 THINGS they figured out about the nature of reality that never made it into your classroom:
These kids are either 12 years old or 50.
The accent is great. The look is hilarious. The Bowery Boys and The Little Rascals come to life.
These are the kids who, a few years later, shipped out to fight in WWII.
🚨Sam Eggington has announced his retirement from Professional Boxing at the age of 32
The Smethwick man retires with a record of 32-10, winning British, Commonwealth, and European Titles along the way.
One of the most beloved domestic boxers this century, Eggington will be remembered for the legendary wars and action fights he was involved in.
A legend of Modern British Boxing.
After Dubois lost to Usyk the first time, he jumped right into the deep end with an unbeaten, trash talking pressure fighter who weighed 100lbs more than him in Jarrell Miller.
Now after he’s lost to Usyk the second time, he’s jumped into the deep end with an unbeaten world champion who hits just as hard as him and could knock him out in Fabio Wardley.
After Wardley drew with Frazer Clarke, he didn’t hang about and take a steady in between fight. He jumped right into the rematch and knocked him out in a round.
After a signature win over Joseph Parker to become world champion, Wardley didn’t scroll the WBO top 15 and find a low risk first defence, he picked out the guy who might well knock him out.
It’s bold, admirable and refreshing from both men at a time when moves like this aren’t the norm. What a sensational fight.
Look at this number: 3,200,000,000,000.
That's how many planets exist in our galaxy alone.
If you tried to count them — one per second, every second, never stopping — it would take you over 100,000 years.
That's just in one galaxy.
There are 2 trillion more galaxies.
Pasifik’te, Mariana Çukuru yakınlarında bir şey, sualtı drone’u tarafından korkunç bir şekilde yakalandı.
Bugüne kadar kimse ne olduğunu bilmiyor.
Derinliklerin karanlığında henüz keşfedilmemiş ne tür varlıklar olabilir?
A common scene across England is the beautiful village cricket ground. A place for locals to gather, have a drink in the sun and maybe enjoy some cricket too...
These places are about more than just sport. They are an iconic expression of English civic pride.

33 years ago today – United were about to be crowned champions for the first time in 26 years....
... Gary Pallister was the only first team regular who was goalless for the season...
.... Pally was put on free-kicks for the game and then this happened in injury time👌
Vultures eat anthrax, botulism, rabies, and cholera for breakfast.
Their stomach acid is among the most corrosive in the animal kingdom, with a pH around 1, low enough to dissolve the bones, hide, and pathogens of dead animals that would kill almost anything else.
A vulture eating a diseased carcass isn't a vector for disease, it's a terminus. The disease chain ends in the vulture's gut, and that's pretty hardcore.
When vulture populations crashed in India in the 1990s, rotting livestock carcasses sat where vultures used to clean them.
Feral dogs and rats took over the cleanup, both of which actually do spread rabies. Researchers later linked the vulture collapse to roughly 500,000 deaths in India over the following decade.
The same collapse is now underway in sub-Saharan Africa. Six of eleven African vulture species are threatened with extinction, primarily from poisoned poaching baits.
The animals nobody finds cute are doing more public health work than most of the species we actively protect.
There is a region in southeastern Spain called Almería. If you pull it up on satellite imagery, you will assume the screen has glitched. A vast, blinding white scab where a landscape used to be.
It's not a glitch. It's 64,000 acres of plastic greenhouses. So much plastic sheeting that it is, genuinely, visible from space. The entire region has been wrapped in industrial farming film to grow tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers and lettuce for European supermarkets in January.
The plastic has created its own microclimate. The reflective surface is so vast it has measurably lowered local temperatures by bouncing sunlight back into the atmosphere. Scientists have a name for it. The Albedo effect of Almería. The only place on earth where human activity has cooled the local climate, and they did it by accident, while building the world's largest open-air plastic factory.
The plastic itself is single-use agricultural film. It sits in UV light for three to five years, degrades into microplastics, blows into the Mediterranean, and ends up in the ocean and the soil. Every year, 45,000 tonnes of plastic waste is generated just from replacing degraded greenhouse covering. Every year. Just the covering.
Inside, workers from Morocco and sub-Saharan Africa labour in 45°C heat for €30 a day. No contracts. No rights. Spraying crops with pesticides at concentrations that would be illegal on outdoor fields. Ventilation: minimal. Chemical exposure: constant. The aubergine looks lovely.
The groundwater underneath Almería is so contaminated with agricultural runoff that it has been declared unusable. The region now imports water from elsewhere in Spain while sitting on top of a poisoned aquifer it created. The land that was meant to feed Europe more efficiently has become a place that needs water flown in to keep the show running.
And this is what supplies your fresh vegetables in January. Grown in plastic factories. By exploited workers. Using groundwater they have already destroyed. Wrapped in more plastic. Shipped across Europe. Refrigerated the whole way. So a person in Manchester can have a tomato in February that tastes of nothing.
But sure. Cattle grazing on Scottish hills are the environmental problem.
Pull the satellite up. Have a look. Then tell me which system is the one that needs explaining.
@SamaHoole@NicholsAuthor My ex is anaemic due to lack of iron in her diet. She was prescribed FS & assumed problem solved
She then got a water infection & was given antibiotics that were ineffective due to being on FS. Infection developed into sepsis which damn nearly killed her
