The 1996 Everest disaster was one of the deadliest tragedies in mountaineering history. A sudden blizzard trapped climbers near the summit, leaving them stranded in freezing temperatures with little oxygen. Expedition leaders, including the famous Rob Hall and Scott Fischer, fought to save their teams but sadly didn’t make it back. Some climbers were miraculously rescued, while others were left behind in the brutal storm. The disaster raised serious questions about the dangers of commercial climbing on Everest. Even today, the story serves as a chilling reminder that nature always has the final word. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Something Opened a Bermuda Triangle in Space But No One Knows What

1/28/2026
The notorious Bermuda Triangle in the North Atlantic Ocean makes people, ships, and airplanes vanish into thin air. Some experts blame bad weather conditions. Others are sure the reason is heavy traffic in the area and human error. Many people believe in conspiracy theories: aliens, the lost city of Atlantis, or even a massive meteorite lying on the ocean floor. There are also those who deny there's anything unusual about the Triangle. And still, the mystery remains. But few people know that the South Atlantic Ocean has an enigma of its own. Well, not the ocean itself, but a patch of space above this area. It's dubbed "the Bermuda Triangle of space" or "the South Atlantic Anomaly.” There, Earth's protection against solar radiation is much weaker than anywhere else. When spacecraft get into this region, all kinds of serious problems occur to them. When NASA was launching its $2.5 billion Perseverance rover in July 2020, the space agency planners had to do their best to avoid the space Bermuda Triangle. Learn more about your ad choices.

They Found a Ship Disappeared in Bermuda Triangle 100 Years Ago

1/28/2026
The voyage started just like any other. The cargo ship SS Cotopaxi is making another journey to Havana, Cuba, to deliver coal. It’s November 29, 1925. For Captain Meyer and his crew, leaving Charleston Port, South Carolina -- it will be the last trip the ship ever makes. Its route ran through the Bermuda Triangle. Two days into the trip, the ship sent out a distress signal. It had got caught up in a strong tropical storm and turned over on its side. Rain gradually filled the ship's hold. Then there was a bright white flash, and the ship disappeared without a trace. All 32 crew members, including the captain, were missing. It seems like a classic case of mysterious things going on in the Bermuda Triangle. But this is just one example out of dozens or even hundreds where ships and planes have gone missing in the Bermuda Triangle. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

He Tried to Save Bermuda Triangle Ship But His Own Crew Mysteriously Vanished

1/28/2026
Bermuda Triangle is a large area in the Atlantic Ocean between Florida, Puerto Rico, and Bermuda. This region is notorious for its mysterious phenomena. Huge amounts of ships and planes have disappeared here. How many creepy stories about the disappearing of airplanes and ships in the Bermuda Triangle have you heard? We guess many. And here's another one. In 1880, the Ellen Austin, a big ship, left the port of Liverpool to make its trip to New York. The ship was carrying a load of people hoping to find a better life in the New World. A few weeks, they found themselves north of the Sargasso Sea, known for its lack of winds and strong circling currents. Worse still, the area belonged to the notorious Bermuda Triangle. One day, the Ellen Austin lost its speed one day and fell adrift without the winds. It was fine, though: they had ample provisions and were still on schedule. Captain Griffin was walking around his ship, giving orders. But then, the lookout shouted from above that a ship was in sight. As it came closer, it became apparent that the way the strange vessel moved wasn’t right. The captain frowned and examined it through his spyglass. The schooner was untouched but eerily silent. There wasn’t a single soul on board... Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Alaska Has a Bermuda Triangle, and It's Even More Mysterious

1/27/2026
The huge chunk of ocean between Miami, Bermuda, and Puerto Rico remains the planet's most mysterious place. But it’s not alone. Alaska has its own triangle. Since the late 80s, 16,000 people have disappeared there. Eyewitnesses to the Bermuda Triangle anomaly talk about thick fog, lightning, balls of light, and hallucinations. In Alaska, everything’s a bit more complicated. People, planes, ships…they just disappear without a trace. There’s no one around to tell us what it felt like. In 1950, a plane took off from Anchorage, Alaska, headed for Great Falls, in Montana. It was carrying 8 crew members and 36 passengers. 2 hours after the start of the flight, the captain radioed in that everything was fine. Then: silence. The 100 ft long plane seemed to evaporate into thin air. 85 aircraft and around 7,000 people searched for the plane. No trace... Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Earth's Supervolcanoes Are Waking Up Right Now: Are We Prepared?

1/26/2026
Earth has some massive volcanoes called "supervolcanoes" that can cause huge eruptions, way bigger than anything we’ve ever seen in modern times. Some of these, like Yellowstone in the U.S. and Campi Flegrei in Italy, show signs of activity that scientists are keeping a close eye on. A supervolcano eruption could release so much ash and gas into the atmosphere that it would block sunlight, leading to a dramatic drop in global temperatures and affecting food supplies. The idea that these giants are "waking up" sounds scary, but scientists work hard to monitor any changes and understand what’s happening deep below. Right now, they’re improving ways to detect early warning signs, like small earthquakes or rising ground, that might hint at an eruption. While we're not totally prepared, knowing more about these supervolcanoes helps us get ready, just in case. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Solar Wind Can Be Fatal for Earth, Here's How

1/26/2026
Solar wind might sound like a harmless breeze, but it can actually be pretty dangerous for Earth. When the sun sends out these high-energy particles, they can mess with our planet's magnetic field. This could lead to major disruptions in our power grids and communication systems. Plus, in extreme cases, it could even put astronauts and high-altitude flights at risk. So yeah, those solar winds are more than just a spacey curiosity—they could seriously shake things up! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

We Sent a Message to Aliens - And Scientists Regret It

1/25/2026
Back in 1974, scientists gathered at the giant Arecibo radio telescope in Puerto Rico and decided to do something bold—beam a cosmic postcard into space. It wasn’t just “hi, we’re Earth,” it was a detailed message packed with math, DNA, and even a sketch of what humans look like. The goal? To reach any intelligent life out there who might be listening. But here’s the twist: decades later, some scientists are asking if that was reckless—what if we just gave our address to the wrong neighbors? This video takes you deep into the story of the Arecibo Message, why we sent it, and why some experts regret it today. It’s a science mystery with a side of “oops.” Learn more about your ad choices.

Something Has Made Earth Tilt, and It’s Not Good News

1/25/2026
Earth isn’t standing as straight as it used to—something has actually made our planet tilt, and it’s not great news. Scientists say that massive amounts of groundwater being pumped from beneath the surface have shifted Earth’s axis. Basically, we’ve moved so much water that it’s actually messing with the planet’s balance, like a wobbly spinning top. This could have serious effects on climate patterns, sea levels, and even how we track time. While the shift isn’t something we’d notice in daily life, over time, it could change weather and seasons in unexpected ways. So, next time you hear about excessive groundwater use, just remember—it’s literally changing the way Earth spins! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
