A few years ago, a mysterious incident occurred in Rome.
On a hot day, a car pulled up to a gas station. The passengers got out to stretch their legs while the attendant prepared to fill the tank. Suddenly, a piercing whistle pierced the air. Instinctively, people turned their faces toward the sky, alert and confused.
Before they could grasp what was happening, a chunk of ice weighing about 110 pounds crashed into a tree, sending shards flying in all directions.
Once the initial shock wore off,…

To make the dough, combine 250g of flour, 50g of butter, a pinch of salt, and 2-3 tablespoons of water.
Roll out the dough to a thickness of about 0.5 cm and cover it with a cloth.

Brush the top of the roll with a mixture of o…

Boil the meat and sausage, then chop them into cubes along with the cucumbers and egg whites. Finely chop the green onions and mash them with salt.

In a clay pot, layer the meat and the vegetable-mushroom mixture. Pour in 200 ml (abo…

Was the air on Earth millions of years ago the same as it is today? Only eyewitnesses could answer that question. And, believe it or not, they’ve been found. These witnesses are icebergs—floating mountains of ice that are millions of years old.
What’s particularly fascinating is that icebergs are composed of 3 percent air, which is released as they melt. Scientists have studied this air and discovered that the oxygen content in the air trapped in young icebergs is the same as that in our modern…
