What will farms and food of the future look like? Will robots overtake farming? The first robotic kitchen has already been developed in London. There are already many 3D food printers that you can buy and restaurants where all the food, utensils, and furniture are 3D-printed. Lab-grown meat will also be a real hit. The farmers of the future will still use their hands in their work, but these hands will mostly be on the remote control buttons and levers.

Do you have your favorite Skittles taste, and you always try to pick them out? You might be wasting your time because Skittles might smell different, but they actually taste completely the same. Do you think it's safe to eat as much sugar-free candy as you want because it doesn't contain sugar? Do sweets really cause more tooth decay than other food?

You're traveling to New York City and, of course, you want to see one of its main symbols - the Statue of Liberty. You take out your drone and prepare to fly it over the statue to get the best possible footage. Stop right there - there's a Federal Aviation Administration ban on it. National and state parks, sports arenas, and airports are some other places where you shouldn't take your drone for a spin. In other countries, there are drone-free cities, like Paris, for example. But where can you legally fly a drone?

Do you follow all trends and always have the coolest photos? Well, you'll be pleased to know that there was a headless photography trend in 19th-century Britain! The photographers back then were experimenting with the newly invented photo cameras, and it seemed like something fun to them. They took numerous photos of the same subject and combined the negatives. Let's learn more about unusual things people in different countries and times did.

Your favorite food has a story to tell: and you won't believe how amazing it is. Bananas changed a lot over time: their seeds were tougher and their skin didn’t look the same. The original before-selective-breeding-corn wasn't big nor juicy. In the early 2010s, the Snickers bar size was reduced for the first time in over 80 years. Let's see what other secrets the food we all know and love might have. #brightside Preview photo credit: Inside a wild-type banana: Warut Roonguthai, CC BY-SA 3.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/..., https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:In...

If your teeth aren't as pearly white as you'd like them to be - no worries! Back in Tudor England, you'd pass for a super-rich and noble person. Back then, sugar was available to the wealthiest ones only, as it was imported from faraway countries. The more sugar people consumed, the blacker their teeth were, and it was a fancy attribute of a rich lifestyle, just like designer bags today. Did the people back then have any other unusual traditions? Let's see!

Do you have an unusual hobby, or looking for ideas for one? Some people are fond of extreme ironing: they iron clothes in the most outrageous of areas, like on top of mountains or on sky slopes. If you like painting and miniatures too, you might want to give this hobby a shot too: painting on pennies! Speaking of mindful activities, try balancing rocks every now and then. News raiding has to be one of the funniest hobbies out there: it means popping up as a passerby in the background of television reporters.

Do you like to listen to the sound of rain? And what if it rained money instead of water? That's what really happened in Germany once: a woman was driving, when she suddenly saw banknotes swirling down from the sky, so she hit the brakes. In several villages in India, in the middle of May 2022, huge black and silver metal balls started dropping from the sky, the first one weighing over 15 pounds. And this is still not the most unusual kind of rain!

Natural disasters like tornadoes, tsunamis, and hurricanes all happen quite often, but how about a natural disaster that has never happened before – but could occur any moment now? It might be a super eruption. You might know that Yellowstone Park is located on top of a super-volcano. The last massive eruption there happened about 664,000 years ago. How about a gamma-ray burst or giant sinkholes?

Every country and every culture has its unique traits, some little or big things you won't see anywhere else. In some southern states of India, people still widely follow a sustainable tradition of serving meals on banana leaves. In China, some malls have “husband storage.” Women can leave their husbands there so that the boys can enjoy video games while their wife is shopping. Many toilets in Japan have sinks on top of them. #brightside Animation is created by Bright Side. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com Check our Bright Side podcast on Spotify and leave a positive review! https://open.spotify.com/show/0hUkPxD...

If you're left-handed, you've probably noticed most things, from scanners at stations to household equipment and devices are designed with right-handed people in mind. The same goes for shirt pockets. So the belief that most things are adapted for the right side isn't a myth. But what about that idea that everyone should drink 8 glasses of water a day? Or that carrots are high in sugar, so you should avoid eating them? Let's see if those are facts or myths!

Titanic has taught us the importance of lifeboats on a ship. Firstly, they are orange in color – and it’s not just some orange. This one has a special name - International Bright Orange. Of course, there is a good reason to use it: better visibility. All the equipment inside the lifeboats must meet international requirements and must be kept in good condition.

Have you ever noticed something odd about those photos from spaceships or the International Space Station that show sunlit objects like Earth or the Moon? They seem so empty because something is definitely missing... there are no stars! If you were on the Moon or somewhere else in space, there would be no atmosphere to spread the light around. That's why the sky there would always appear black. Let's find out the answers to more space mysteries you've always wanted to explain.

What was the scariest road you've ever driven on? Rumor has it there's a mysterious road in Mexico where at least 17 people have disappeared without a trace. They call it "The Road to Nowhere" because it leads to the mountain and then turns into a dead end. Route 29 in Virginia got its fair share of mysterious disappearances, too. Since 1996, there's been an unusually high number of missing person cases involving young women.

What was the weirdest thing you've ever found on the beach? It turns out, you could have run into an 8-feet Lego man if you had been on the beach in the Netherlands or England several years ago. It was a performance by a Dutch guerrilla artist who wanted to "bring some kindness into everyday life." If we consider the ocean's size, we can expect something strange now and then to pop up. And some things could be of good value - so prepare to book a trip to the seaside if you want to find them!

There's one object we all use every day, and you probably won't believe there are some alternative ways to use it. But some people on social media claim we’ve been using our toilets all wrong! Rather than sitting in it like a chair, we should be facing backward instead. It makes the structure and shape much more logical, giving the toilet different uses. Now you can use the toilet tank as a makeshift desk.

In July 1954, a man arrived at Haneda Airport in Tokyo, Japan, by a plane flying over from Europe. The man’s passport did look authentic, but the problem was it claimed he came from a country no one had ever heard of: Taured. He even pointed to its location on the map: a small territory located between Spain and France. His passport also had stamps from many airports around the world, including previous visits to Tokyo. So, did the officers let him cross the border?
