What's the most isolated spot on Earth? Have you ever heard about Point Nemo? It's the most remote place on our planet. The name says it all — “Nemo” means “no one” in Latin. This loneliest of lonely spots is more than 1,600 miles from any coast. Below: tens of thousands of feet of oceanic depths. Above: endless skies. A place that occupies 10% of the world’s oceans. A place that’s called a “desert” because of the almost complete absence of life. So if you're tired of your problems and want to run away from all the nervous hassle, Point Nemo is exactly what you need! But don’t expect too much solitude because somebody’s already living there...

What animal has the most babies at one time? When it comes to biology, any species’ primary goal is to perpetuate itself. Our own species usually makes just 1 successor at a time, while a queen ant can make thousands a day. That’s far from the maximum, but let’s start small on roughly how many offspring this planet’s animals can have… For example, elephants, giraffes, camels, zebras, and humans typically have a single youngling at a time. African wild dog has a litter of two to 20 pups. Salamanders lay up about 300 eggs at a time. Piranha lays about 5,000 eggs in the nest. But there are creatures that lay up millions of eggs at once!

Let's take a fascinating linguistic journey back in time to discover the oldest languages known to humankind! Deep within the annals of history, we find languages like Sumerian, dating back to around 4,000 BCE, spoken in ancient Mesopotamia. Then there's Egyptian, with its mysterious hieroglyphs, originating around 3,200 BCE, captivating us with tales of pharaohs and pyramids. Traveling eastward, we encounter Tamil, a Dravidian language spoken in South India, boasting a rich history dating back over 2,200 years.

Picture in your mind, you’re camping with your buddies for the weekend in a nearby forest. Your tents are all set-up, you ate your dinner, and you went to sleep. Suddenly, the smell of smoke wakes you up. You go outside to see what’s going on, and there it is: you’re in the middle of a wildfire. This scenario might seem unreal for most people, but it’s more common than you’d expect. Wildfires are very fast; they can overtake the average person in just a few minutes. Their flames travel approximately 14 miles per hour, and they burn everything in their path if they find enough fuel to feed on. Knowing what’s going on and how to act in these situations is a true life-saver.

Would you like to spend an entire week digging in the ground, scanning for ruins, and taking photographs of the world's most surreal archeological sites? The Roman Emperor Nero ordered to build the magnificent Domus Aurea back in 64 BCE. In its glory days, it occupied an area three times the size of the Vatican City. After flying halfway across the world, you're deep in the Cambodian jungle admiring the beauty of the city of Angkor. If you like terracotta landscapes, you should visit the city of Petra, which was a commercial hub back in the 4th Century BCE.

You fall in love, you start dating, you move in together … and then it seems to start going in the wrong direction. Again. Before you label your significant other as “not the one”, remember that some changes are normal and just inevitable. Don't compare your life with all those romantic movies cause not everything you see on a large screen is true...

Did you know that the music you're listening to at the moment affects your heartbeat? It's not the same with everyone, but toenails grow slower than fingernails on average, at about half the pace of fingernails. Speaking of nails, as you age, they significantly change. And in case you've been wondering, ears do get bigger with age. Well, not precisely bigger, but both your nose and ears sag as you get older because your skin loses elasticity.

What happens underwater during a hurricane? How do hurricanes affect sea life? Where do fish go? People normally snap to attention and take shelter as a storm approaches land, but the storms spend most of their time out at sea. So when a hurricane hits, what happens to sharks, dolphins, and other sea creatures? Well, some animals, such as sharks and other fast swimmers, are generally in the clear. Sharks even have organs that allow them to detect the changes in barometric pressure accompanying severe storms. Dolphins are another large aquatic species able to sense approaching storms. But what is it that has the kings of the ocean swimming scared?

Some lakes in the world seem peaceful and beautiful, but in fact, they're hiding some dangerous secrets. Lake Monoun in West Province, Cameroon, seems calm but is one of the few erupting lakes on the whole planet – similar to a volcano. Natron Lake in Tanzania may be beautiful to watch because of its unique reddish coloring, but it's definitely not a place you'd want to take a swim in. It has pH levels so high that they become corrosive, so if you dampen a piece of dyed material in this lake, it will soon be stripped of its color. Let's explore some other mysterious lakes on our planet that aren't what they really seem.

Scientists think it took 3.5 billion years for us to evolve from single-celled organisms into our present state. If true, this means we are still mutating and evolving today. And we could, potentially, evolve in any direction. Maybe we’ll develop flight? Or transparency! But what if some of our older genes re-emerged? Could we devolve into something closer to the ape-like form of every primate’s common ancestor?

How big can a wave get? And what's the biggest wave ever recorded? Well, imagine that you’re standing at the top of the Empire State Building and see a massive wall of water coming right at you! Even a tsunami can’t be that high, but what about… a megatsunami? A regular tsunami is bad enough. As it comes closer to the coast, it can grow up to 160 feet high, or about 15 stories! But what if the wave height wasn’t hundreds, but thousands of feet? Sounds like some unrealistic plot for a disaster movie, but it has happened! These skyscrapers of waves are called megatsunamis. They are so huge, they could’ve wiped the dinosaurs off the face of this planet! And surprisingly, for a tsunami to get upgraded to “mega” status, it’s not all about size. But what causes them? And can a megatsunami happen today?

Get ready for an incredible adventure through time! Picture yourself spending an entire week exploring ancient ruins and capturing mesmerizing photographs. First stop: South East Asia.

Next up is Cambodia's Angkor, an ancient city once home to nearly one million people. Then, it's off to Egypt to visit the Grand Karnak Temple in Luxor. Prepare to be captivated by these ancient wonders and the stories they hold.

Have you considered making a house out of some sunken ships? Because someone else did! It may sound crazy, but there’s a whole town built on these things. The ships were deliberately flooded and then connected together with metal bridges, creating a foundation for a real settlement in the sea. It’s probably one of the strangest places on Earth, and there are plenty more of them out there. So, there’s a mysterious place out in the middle of the Caspian Sea, about 60 miles from the city of Baku, Azerbaijan. Local fishermen gave it the spooky name of Black Rocks, thanks to the dark substance found on the stones there. In the 1940s a geological group went to take a look at the area, and they soon learned that the black stuff was oil. There was tons and tons of it under the seabed, which naturally attracted a lot of attention...

There's a terrifying yet incredibly beautiful place, where water and sky mix into one picture. Where you’ll find virtually no living creatures for thousands of miles. Anyone who manages to get there will feel like the loneliest person. Destination: Point Nemo, the most remote place on Earth. So, to get to the most isolated spot on Earth, you'll need to arrive on the coast of Chile and rent an old fishing boat. From here, you’ll have to sail through the South Pacific Ocean toward New Zealand. 2,500 miles to your destination…and just as many on the way back. Point Nemo is a junkyard for space debris since there’s no one here to disturb.

Some crazy things sometimes happen in this world... so what if you woke up as the giant sea monster Kraken one day? The first thing you feel is some heaviness around your body – as if you're sleeping under a soft but weighted blanket. You open your eyes and... it's weird. You're surrounded by some blue glow. You want to rub your eyes and discover that you have tentacles instead of hands!

What's the brightest star in the sky? What's the farthest human-made object in space? What's the smallest planet? There's a lot to wonder about space. We probably don't know all the answers but things we do know are really amazing. Tiny black holes, planets made of diamonds, stars no hotter than a cup of tea, and giant clouds of gas able to take almost any shape. In space, anything is possible. For example, there's a really hot planet made of ice! The surface temperature here should be at around 830°F, but the ice doesn’t melt because of the planet’s enormous gravity. Or did you know that theres's a huge molecular cloud not far from the center of the Milky Way? Scientists recognized more than 50 different molecules in it, but one of them is the same stuff that makes the taste of raspberries!

When you come to the hottest place on Earth for the first time, you may be tricked into thinking you're suddenly surrounded by ice. But it's actually salt, left here from when the rainwater evaporates. Should you ever get to the top of the sand dunes of Death Valley, you may be lucky enough to experience one of the strangest things in the desert – singing sand. If you think things can’t possibly get any stranger in this surreal location, hear me out: some of the rocks here seem to be moving on their own! Could it be the wind that's moving them, or maybe there is some other reason?

Today, there are more than 1 million elevators just in the US, carrying people higher and lower every day. All these elevators travel about 1 and 1/2 billion miles per year and move around 18 billion passengers. You might think that you know everything about this vertical kind of transport. But, let's say, have you ever wondered why elevator doors have small holes in them? Imagine getting stuck in an elevator at the most inappropriate moment of your life. An elevator arrives at your floor, but the doors wouldn't open. Something must have gone wrong with the equipment, or there has been a power failure. In this case, getting out won't be an easy feat! That's why all you can do is to wait for an elevator mechanic. Finally, they turn up, but what next?

Picture this: amid the lush landscapes and serene waters of Thailand, there are these incredible stone sculptures that resemble majestic whales.
