How Tiny Tugboats Tow Giant Ships

The Black Sea is full of mysteries and interesting facts! Using remote-controlled vehicles, researchers found more than 40 ancient sunken ships in great condition underwater. There's a theory called "The Black Sea Deluge Hypothesis," which suggests the Black Sea was once a big freshwater lake that flooded quickly, in just 1-3 years. Beneath the sea, there’s a vast network of tunnels that might connect Romania and Turkey, with chisel marks showing they were man-made, but no one knows who made them. Plus, the Black Sea has two layers of water: a habitable freshwater layer on top and a deep, salty layer below where only bacteria and microorganisms live. Learn more about your ad choices.

Airports feel like gateways to adventure, but did you know they’re also full of hidden dangers most people don’t even notice? From the way luggage belts can actually put you at risk to the germs hiding in spots you’d never think about—your “safe” travel zone suddenly looks a lot scarier. And don’t even get me started on the invisible radiation, confusing signs, or where criminals actually take advantage of the chaos. The truth is, airports are designed to move people fast, not to keep you completely protected at all times. But don’t worry—we’ve dug into all the surprising, unsettling, and downright shocking dangers for you. Watch now, and you’ll never look at your next flight the same way again.

Deep in Siberia, there’s a place locals call the gateway to the underworld — and it’s getting bigger every year. The Batagay megaslump, a massive crater in the permafrost, is expanding by more than 35 million cubic feet annually as the frozen ground melts away. Scientists say its walls are retreating 40 feet each year, exposing ice and soil that have been frozen for over 650,000 years — the oldest permafrost in Siberia. This isn’t just a hole in the Earth; it’s a time machine revealing our planet’s ancient past — and a chilling sign of its future. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Arizona might not be the first place you think of when it comes to volcanoes, but it actually has some of the most mysterious ones in the world! These ancient volcanoes, like the San Francisco Peaks, are now mostly dormant, but they once erupted with huge blasts of lava and ash. The mystery comes from how old and unusual they are—some scientists believe these volcanoes are millions of years old, and their exact origins remain a puzzle. There are lava fields and craters scattered around Arizona that hint at a fiery past. The area around Sunset Crater is especially eerie, with dark volcanic rock and a landscape that feels like you’re on another planet. Even though they’re quiet now, these volcanoes still tell the story of a time when Arizona’s land was shaped by powerful forces from deep inside the Earth.
