10 incredible facts
10 incredible facts
If you think that Everest is the highest mountain on earth, our planet is basically fresh water-you will be the biggest impact of your life. Scientific discoveries are carried out every day, but not all scientific discoveries can obtain the necessary exposure. We, human beings, still live in darkness, and because this is about the knowledge of the earth, it is almost impossible for us to understand the constantly changing facts, and these facts will completely change in an instant. For those who want to find out the truth, we have collected 10 amazing discoveries you may never have heard of.
1.Earth's atmosphere?
Do you know that the earth's atmosphere has boundaries? It seems that at an altitude of 100 kilometers above sea level, there is an internationally recognized line called the Kaman line. Although the Earth ’s atmosphere extends into farther space, this line has been recognized by the World Aeronautics Movement Federation as the boundary separating our planet ’s atmosphere and outer space.
2. The highest mountain in the world?.
Everest is considered the highest mountain on earth, but it is not entirely correct. If we consider a part of the mountain below sea level, then Mauna Kea, Hawaii ’s huge dormant volcano, seems to be much higher. If we measure Kea Mountain from the base to the top, we will get a height of 10203 meters, while Mount Everest is only 8848 meters high.
3. Fresh water on Earth ?
We are used to believing that the earth is basically composed of water. But is that water drinkable? It seems that oceans and seas account for 97% of the earth ’s water resources, which leaves us with only 3% of fresh water, most of which can be found in glaciers (70%) and Lake Baikal (20%) .
4. The driest place on earth.?
Itis generally believed that the desert is the driest place on earth, especially the Atacama Desert. This desert is located in Chile and has never seen a drop of rain for thousands of years. However, there has been no rain in one place! The desolate land in the McMurdo Dry Valley in Antarctica has dried up for 2 million years and is likely to last twice as long. The wind there is particularly fierce, with a speed of 320 kilometers per hour.
5. The moon and the earth are the same planet.?
Scientists are still arguing about the origin of the moon, but most people believe that the moon was formed after the collision of Earth and a Mars-sized protoplanet billions of years ago. Swedish scientists believe that 4.5 billion years ago, the earth was struck by an ancient planet called Thea, whose orbit is similar to that of the earth. When the planet becomes larger, its orbit becomes unstable, and the planet hits the earth. The debris left by the impact later formed the moon as we know it today.
6. The oldest temple in the world.?
Not many people have heard of Gobekli Hill, it is considered to be the oldest temple in the world. Archaeologists believe that this is a huge temple made of huge stone columns created by ancient hunter-gatherers. There is evidence that a more advanced society built this temple in southern Turkey 12,000 years ago. This incredible temple is larger than the pyramids and 6,500 years before Stonehenge. But no carving tools were found at the scene!
7. The mainland will reunite in 250 million years.?
Scientists believe that about 330 million years ago, all continents were one continent known as the Pan-Continent, which later split into Laura and Gondwana. Over time, these two continents also split, forming the seven continents we live in today. However, the earth's continent is always moving. In about 250 million years, we will all live on a new super continent called the Pangu Continent. At its core, the land of this world is a huge inland sea, all of which will appear on the former Atlantic Ocean.
8. The first mass extinction was caused by single-celled organisms. ?
MIT seems to have finally solved one of the biggest ancient mysteries on earth-about 252 million years ago, 90% of the species on the planet became extinct? This is not the only mass extinction in the history of the earth, but this The culprit of the species is hard to find. Scientists have found evidence that it is not a volcano, fire or asteroid that has destroyed most life forms on Earth, but a new type of methanogenic microorganism. Methane suddenly blooms in the earth ’s oceans, ejecting methane into the atmosphere, and changing the entire earth ’s climate.
9. Most of the earth is always in darkness.?
This is an interesting idea: as far as we know, 71% of the earth ’s surface is covered with oceans. The sunlight has not penetrated deep into the water. In fact, it can only reach 200 meters! This means that the rest of the water is in darkness and has not been penetrated by light for tens of millions of years. This also means that most of the time on our planet is in darkness, whether it is "day" or "night".
10. A new garbage continent?
We all know that a lot of garbage is dumped in the ocean, but what happens next? Now there are some garbage debris (also called vortices), which are basically debris that enters the water by ships and their lost cargo. This rubbish is moved everywhere by the ocean current until the garbage island is formed. The biggest garbage vortex we know today is the Great Pacific Garbage Belt. Scientists speculate that one day, all the garbage dumped by humans into the ocean and sea will gather together to form a brand new island, or even a continent.
