Top 15 Unsolvable Crimes

Number 15. The Antwerp Diamond Heist
Known as the 'heist of the century,' the Antwerp Diamond Heist was at one time the largest diamond heist in history. Ringleader Leonardo Notarbartolo rented an office next to the Diamond Centre for two and a half years before the robbery, and posed as an Italian diamond merchant in order to gain a positive reputation in the community. Investigators believe Notabartolo led a five man team past the highly secure vault of the Diamond Centre, and made off with what he claims to be approximately $8 million euros worth of diamonds during the weekend between February 15th and 16th.

Only days later, Notarbartolo was arrested in connection to the robbery based on circumstantial evidence, and sentenced to 10 years; however, he maintained his innocence for the majority of his sentence, until an interview with Wired, where he detailed the heist in great detail; he claimed in the interview he and the others involved were hired by a diamond merchant as part of an insurance fraud plot, but he remained silent on the identities of his associates and who hired them, and so far nobody else has been detained or charged for the crime. Notabartolo has since been released from prison on parole, but still has not given authorities information on the heist; the diamonds remain missing to this day.

Number 14. Jack the Stripper
No, this name is not a mistake. Most of the world knows of the infamous Jack the Ripper killings in 1888, another little known serial killer again terrorized London during the early to mid 1960s. Eight bodies were found washed up in the River Thames near Hammersmith, London, all whom were female prostitutes. All eight were strangled, stripped nude and were missing certain teeth.

Early in the case, a middle-aged caretaker confessed to two of the murders, but his confession was later dismissed due to inconsistencies with his statement and physical evidence, and due to a thrid victim with the same M.O turning up in an alleyway. The third victim provided the first real piece of evidence in the case, which were flecks of pained motor-car manufactories used during production.

While investigators continued to follow leads, and tips from prostitutes working in the area, no charges ever appeared before the courts. The last victim, Irishwoman Bridget O'Hara, was found in 1965; since then, all killings with Jack the Stripper's M.O ceased, and his or her identity remain a mystery. Just like the historical counterpart, the Jack the Stripper crimes are likely to forever be unsolved.

Number 13. Jimmy Hoffa
The once president of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters labour union, Hoffa had an angel on one shoulder, and a devil on the other; he was an outspoken civil rights supporter and made many contributions to the movement, but also had ties with the mafia, and was charged with attempted bribery and fraud and sentenced to 13 years in prison.

Richard Nixon later had Hoffa's sentence commuted to time served and he was released in 1971. On July 30, 1975, Hoffa disappeared from a parking lot in Detroit, and has never been seen again. He was declared legally dead in 1982, and the investigation was transferred to homicide detectives. Many have speculated as to what happened to Hoffa, with the most popular theory being his mafia connections led to his demise, and even belief he was killed by infamous hitman Richard 'The Iceman' Kuklinski.

Crazier ideas have surfaced, including alien abduction and faking his own death  scenarios. To this day, the FBI have followed up leads into the possible whereabouts of Hoffa's body, but all have turned up dead ends. No trace of Hoffa has ever been found, it it appears we'll never know his true fate.

Number 12. The Wheaton Bandit
From early 2002 until late 2006, an unknown man went on a bank robbery spree in Wheaton, Illinois. The masked bandit is thought to have been between 25 to 35 years old, wore heavy clothing and possibly a bullet proof vest; interestingly, the witnesses said the crook would have his trigger finger resting along the slide of the gun and not on the trigger itself, possibly indicating he did not wish to harm anyone.

The bandit's spree was at an all time high in 2003, with a total of seven robberies between January and August; he even robbed two banks twice, belonging to the West Suburban Bank. Police hit a breakthrough when a suspicious man was captured on bank security in December 2004; the man was viewed not making any transactions, as if he was scouting out the location. Two weeks later, the bank was robbed. Two years later, a witness spotted a suspicious person in the parking lot of a Glen Ellyn Bank & Trust an hour before it was robbed, and was able to give sketch artists a possible visual interpretation of the suspect.

After the sketch was released to the general public, the robberies stopped and the bandit seemed to fade from existence. Authorities have continued to offer a $50,000 reward, but the statute of limitation expired on December 7, 2011, meaning even if the identity of the bandit is discovered, there would be no possibility of charged being laid against him. Regardless, the bandit has forever disappeared, and will likely never be identified.

Number 11. The Highway of Tears
This haunting nickname is given to a section of Highway 16 between Prince George and Prince Rupert, British Columbia, Canada. Between 1969 and 2011, 19 women have either gone missing or been found murdered near the road. Most, if not all, of these women were believed to be hitchhiking, and were picked up by the wrong person, leading to their demise.

Royal Canadian Mounted Police have been able to solve several of the murders, and a prime suspect of three murders is one Bobby Jack Fowler, who died in and Oregon State Penitentiary in 2006 while serving an unrelated murder sentence. Racism has been blamed for the lack of progress on the investigations since many of the women are of First Nations decent, similar to the slow investigation to the missing women in Vancouver discovered to have been murdered by Robert Pickton between 1983 and 2002.

Lack of media coverage has also been blamed as a huge part of the lack of witnesses and slow progress in solving all the murders and missing persons. RCMP has confirmed there are prime suspects in most cases, though there is not enough evidence to lay charges as of yet. The Highway of Tears label is set to remain on notorious Highway 16, and signs have been placed along the stretch warning people not to hitchhike along there, in hopes more people will not fall victim to the highway's dark history.

Number 10. Taman Shud
In the early morning of December 1, 1948, a body was found under a street lamp in Somerton Beach, Australia. All identification markings from the man's clothes were removed; it was only after extensive research investigators were able to pin point the man's jacket as being sold in the United States. However, dental records and fingerprints didn't match to anyone living or who had lived in America, or anywhere else for that matter.
An autopsy came up inconclusive, and despite congestion in his brain, consistent with poisoning, toxicology turned up with no trace of poisons in the man's system. A briefcase belonging to the man contained only clothes,which also had all tags removed, and secret pockets in the man's pants, one of which contained a not with the words Taman Shud written on it, meaning “finished” in Persian.

The scrap was torn from a copy of Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam, and a copy of the book owned by the John Doe had a strange cypher written on it, five sets of what appeared to be random letters. When the case was reopened recently, it was discovered the letters were not random, but belonged to a cypher no living human was familiar with. The case has been reopened several times in an attempt to identify the John Doe and find a possible cause for his death; speculation includes early-Cold War espionage, a case of unrequited love. No further evidence has been discovered, and it is likely the case will never be closed.

Number 9. The Black Dahlia
Elizabeth Short was a young waitress living in Los Angeles during the mid 1940s. Short became an infamous media sensation when her mutilated body was discovered in a vacant lot in the Leimert Park neighbourhood of LA on January 15, 1947; she was stripped nude and cut in half, with her body completely drained of blood, her mouth slashed open into a Glasgow smile, and various other graphic acts conducted either pre or postmortem.
An autopsy revealed her cause of death to be hemorrhaging and shock from blunt force trauma to the head. The news quickly took an interest in the story, and reporters from the Los Angeles Examiner thuggishly contacted Short's mother claiming Elizabeth had won a beauty contest; it was only after they had gotten the details into Short's life did they reveal to her mother she had actually been murdered.

A major lead came to police in the form of an anonymous person contacting the Examiner editor claiming to be the killer a week after Short's body was discovered; the following day, the Examiner received a package containing Short's birth certificate, her business cards, personal photos, and an address book. As the case gained more and more notoriety, over 50 men and women stepped forward and claimed to be the killer, or giving tips about suspected friends or family.

Detective John P. St. John, one of the investigators on the case until his retirement, later stated “It's amazing how many people offer up a relative as the killer.” The case went cold due to lack of incriminating evidence and from media publicity creating roadblocks in the investigation; no one was ever charged in Short's murder, and the trail is all but gone. People continue to speculate on the identity of the killer, and the case was the subject of crime novelist James Ellroy's book The Black Dahlia in 1987.

Number 8. The Texarkana Moonlight Murders
A serial murderer stalked people in the twin cities of Texarkana, Texas and Arkansas between February 22 and May 3, 1946. Within the short span, the killer managed to fatally shoot five people and injure a further three. The media dubbed him the Phantom Killer, for he was able to sneak up on people seemingly without a sound, and with witnesses unable to give a description of the suspect; he would almost without fail commit a shooting every three weeks, consistent with the full moon thought not always despite popular belief.

Panic struck the cities, and night after night, police were flooded with reports of prowlers outside frightened residents' homes. As mysteriously as the shootings began, they stopped, and no murders with the same MO have occurred in Texarkana since. The only description of the killer given by survivors detailed the assailant as a six-foot-tall man wearing a plain white sack as a mask.

A popular theory of the killer's identity is he was the Zodiac Killer in the early stages of his killings, though there is no physical or circumstantial evidence giving this theory ground. The only suspect in the case was Youell Swinney, who was imprisoned a year later for an unrelated theft charge, and he was never charged for the murders. Calm soon returned to the cities as the killer vanished like the Phantom he seemed to be.

Number 7. The Salish Sea severed feet
Since August 20, 2007, shoes containing severed feet have been washing up in the mainland and islands surrounding the Salish Sea of the West Coast of Canada and the United States. The first foot was discovered on Jedediah Island, British Columbia, by a girl visiting from neighbouring Washington State. Six days later, a second foot washed up on Gabriola Island, with signs it had been taken ashore by an animal. The following year, a total of five feet washed up on islands and the mainlands between February and October, two sets of which were linked to the opposing feet of the same person, but found 4 to 6 months apart and in different locations.

The latest foot was found near the Pier 86 grain terminal in Seattle, Washington, just over two years since the previous foot was found in Vancouver, British Columbia. So far, only the first foot has possibly been identified as belonging to a missing Canadian man suffering from episodes of depression, but the others remain unidentified with no leads. Investigators and the public alike have speculated the feet belong to a varying degree of people, including plane and boat crash victims, murdered persons and suicide victims who have jumped from one of the many cliffs or bridges in the area. Sadly, none of the victims can be accurately identified due to lack of DNA and full bodies to match. There is a long list of missing persons who could possibly belong to one of the foots, but their identities are forever buried beneath the waves of the Salish Sea.

Number 6. The Murder of Tupac Shakur
The mid-1990s saw the peak of a feud between East Coast and West Coast hip-hop fans and artists alike. Two of the focal points of the feud were New York artist Biggie Smalls and Los Angeles based Tupac Shakur. The two released various songs antagonizing one another, including Biggie's “Who Shot Ya?” Who shot ya? / Seperate the weak from the ob-solete / Hard to creep them Brooklyn streets / It's on n*gga, f*ck all that bickering beef and Tupac's “Hit 'Em Up,”

First off, f*ck your b*tch / And the clique you claim / West side when we ride / Come equipped with game / You claim to be a player / But I f*cked your wife / We bust on Bad Boys / n*ggas f*ck for Life both containing mocking and even threatening lyrics pointed at one another. The story took a sudden and tragic twist on the night of September 7, 1996.
Tupac and several friends had attended a Mike Tyson fight at Las Vegas' MGM Grande Hotel and Casino, and were stopped at a red light when a sedan pulled up and its occupants fired several rounds into Tupac's car, before speeding away. Driver Suge Knight, despite being severely injured, managed to drive a mile up the road to a nearby police bike patrol, who radioed for paramedics.

By the time he reached the hospital, it was too late and Tupac died six days later. Witnesses claimed to not know who shot Tupac, with Knight saying he wouldn't tell authorities even if he did. There is much speculation in the possible involvement of Biggie Smalls and/or members of his entourage, though there is no definitive evidence to suggest such a link. In 2014, a retired police officer who witnessed Tupac's death claims he asked Tupac if he had seen who shot him, but whispered “F*ck you,” as a reply. Six months after Tupac's murder, Biggie Smalls was killed in a drive-by shooting, and his murder is also unsolved.

Number 5. The Stanley Park children
On January 14, 1953, a gardener discovered the skeletal remains of two children in Stanley Park, Vancouver, Canada, along with an axe and a woman's shoe. Medical examiners determined one child was male, and the other was female. The only lead police found was from a truck driver, who told police he had picked up a woman and two boys in 1949, and even described one of the boys as wearing an aviator's helmet, which was one of the items found at the scene.

He also said the woman was in trouble for vagrancy, another term for prostitution during that time. Sadly, the driver's  statement was ignored because investigators were looking for a boy and a girl. Finding no further evidence, and because of the lack of forensic technology at the time, the case quickly ran cold and was shelved by police due to lack of evidence. In 1998, a retired detective decided to reopen the case and conducted DNA analysis on the remains.

To the surprise of investigators, it was discovered both remains were male, meaning the truck driver's statement could have solid foundation. By then, it was well too late and any traces of the mother were long washed away. To this day, the identity of the boys and the mother have never been uncovered.

Number 4. The Bone Collector
In February 2009, an Albuquerque, New Mexico resident was walking dogs in the West Mesa neighbourhood, when one of the dogs uncovered what appeared to be a human bone. Investigators arrived at the scene and to their surprise, unearthed the largest crime scene in American history. In total, the remains of eleven women and one fetus was excavated from the scene. Forensics determined the women were killed between 2001 and 2005.
All the women were identified as know prostitutes who frequented the area for clients, and disappeared somewhere within the killer's spree. Unfortunately, no valuable piece of evidence was discovered, not a murder weapon, DNA, nothing. Sex workers till working in the area continue to live in fear of becoming the Bone Collector's next victim, even though no further murders have been linked to this mysterious string of murders.

Despite police failing to bring charges in relation to the deaths, they have stepped in at providing better protection to sex workers in West Mesa, by actively pursuing  accusations of rape and beatings against women in the area, and a Bad Date List was created and actively monitored and updated. While unsolved, the legacy of the discovery has lead authorities to prevent any such atrocities from occurring in the future; Albuquerque Police are still offering a $100,000 reward to anyone who can give testimony relating to the crime that results in an arrest.

Number 3. The Alphabet Murders
Between November 16, 1971 and November 26, 1973, three young girls were found raped and murdered around Rochester, New York; the strange connection between the victims is their first and last names began with the same letter: Carmen Colon, age 10, Wanda Walkowicz, age 11, and Michelle Maenza, age 11. After Maenza's murder, the killings in Rochester ceased, and the main suspect was cleared posthumously by DNA evidence in 2007.

Strangely enough, a series of similar murders began in 1977, with 18 year old Rocene Roggasch, followed by Pamela Parsons, Tracy Tofoya and oodly enough, another woman named Carmen Colon. These murders were later linked to a man named Joseph Naso, a photographer from New York; he was found guilty of the California murders and sentenced to death.

While Naso is considered a person of interest to the murders in Rochester, his DNA has not been matched, and followers of the story have pointed out the M.O.'s are different, with the California victims being prostitutes, and the New York victims children still in elementary school. The true identity of the killer, or whether or not Naso was involved remains unknown, and it appears the case has permanently gone cold.

Number 2. The Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum heist
In the early hours of March 18, 1990, Boston citizens were still in the midst of St. Patrick's Day celebrations when two men posed as police officers tricked security at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum to let them in. The assailants tied up the guards and began gathering various art pieces, until leaving with 13 paintings worth $500 million worth of art. The guards claimed the two men said “You'll be hearing from us again in a year,” but a year came and went, and still no word from the thieves.

Works from famous painters, including Rembrandt and Manet, were taken in what the FBI believes to be the work of a criminal organization. Investigators continue to search for the missing paintings, but so far, they have vanished without a trace. In March 2013, the FBI announced they knew who the thieves were, but no names were  released at that time. The U.S Attorney's Office released a video two years later of what is believed to be a dry run of the theft; days later, FBI officials announced the previously mentioned suspects were now deceased; since then, there has been no further information on the case, and whether or not it is moving along remains unknown. The paintings remain missing, the suspects now dead, and the criminal organization is yet to be identified.

Number 1. The Zodiac Killer
The San Francisco Bay Area, along with the city of Vallejo, and counties of Napa and Solano found themselves terrorized by a mysterious killer between December 1968 and October 1969. In a letter sent to newspapers in San Francisco, the killer dubbed himself The Zodiac, and continuously sent letters to the media with various claims and threats, including hijacking a school bus and kill the children on board.

The Zodiac has a confirmed kill count of 5, with a a possibility of having up to 28 victims, and a personal claim of 37, though many of his claimed murders were later disproven. The investigation was met with problems due to the murders occurring across county lines and the respective police departments finding difficulty coordinating evidence. The final Zodiac letter was sent in to The SF Chronicle on January 29, 1974, which he taunted the police by ending with “Me = 37, SFPD = 0.” Afterwards, The Zodiac went silent, and his murders appeared to stop, leading to much speculation as to what happened.

Author Robert Graysmith, who wrote the critically acclaimed book Zodiac, was convinced the identity of the Zodiac was a man named Arthur Leigh Allen based on circumstantial evidence, including a letter written on a typewriter model Allen owned, him owning a Zodiac brand wristwatch, and him living in Vallejo, minutes away from where the first victim lived. However, DNA evidence in 2002 attempted to match saliva of Allen's to that on the Zodiac letters envelopes, though it was found to not be a match. Today, the identity of the Zodiac remains unknown, and it has become more apparent whoever he or she was will remain a mystery.

10 Surprising Things You Didn't Know About President Donald Trump

He is a real-estate mogul, a reality TV star and currently the most powerful man in the world.  We are talking about none other than Donald Trump. Thanks to his television and political coverage, there's a lot  we know about the 45th President of the United States. However, there are also a number of facts and stories that you may not have known. Ahead you'll find no health care debate or Russia scandals. No instead we have some tidbits of info that often get overlooked in the media when it comes to the story of Donald Trump. Now, be sure to pay attention because we'll have a quiz for you and we want you to do well. Give us a big league response and we'll be sure to pin it. Fail us and well you're fired! Whatever the case, be sure to hit that subscribe button it's easy to see because it's red, and just like the color we all associate with Trump's political party.

1. The Sign
Those of you into astrology might be interested to know that Donald Trump Facts has a sun sign of Gemini, a moon sign of Sagittarius and a rising sign of Leo. So just how accurate are the signs in this case? Well, it is said that Gemini's love to talk and are never boring. Sagittarius is affiliated with salesmen, story-tellers and exaggerators. Those under this sign also hate to be wrong and believe they are always right. And leo? It is interesting that Leo are often associated with being concerned with their hair. Sure, there's more to it but in this case we think the signs all match up pretty well.

2. The Wine
We all know that Donald Trump loves attaching his brand to anything that can be sold. From real estate to steaks, we've seen this many times. But did you know that the Donald Trump also has his own wine. It may also interest you that he hasn't just gone and slapped the golden 'T' on any wine. No, in fact Trump wine actually comes from a vineyard and winery that Trump owns in Charlottesville, Virginia. Ok technically Eric Trump owns it because now that Donald is POTUS he can't have any business interests that could conflict with the running of the country.

3. Not A Drop
All this talk of wine kind of has us thinking about pouring a nice glass of red right now. But not Donald Trump. You see he has made it very clear over the years that he won't touch alcohol. In various interviews Trump has stated that it ties back to his family and specifically his older brother Freddie Trump Jr. reportedly, Freddie was an alcoholic who passed away in 1981 due to complications linked with his drinking. According to Donald, Freddie clearly told his younger sibling to stay away from the booze. To this day, Trump appears to have listened to that advice.

4. Bankruptcy
During the past presidential campaign, accusations and claims being made against one another got really nasty. One aspect of Donald Trump's business life that came under scrutiny was the number of bankruptcies he filed as a real estate tycoon. Most people believe this number was four. In fact, Trump has officially filed for bankruptcy six times over his career. These occurred between 1991 and 2009. So where does the number of four come from? Some think the fact Trump filed for the three bankruptcies in 1992 has resulted in those being lumped into one big bankruptcy or a 'Yuge' bankruptcy if you will.

5. Pricey Cake
The donald likes to go all out for big occasions, there's no denying that. We mean, just look at the inside of his pent houses and you'll see nothing but gold. So when he married his third wife, Melania, in 2005 Trump made sure the cake was spectacular. It was a seven-tier Orange Grand Marnier cake which measured five feet in height. Adorning the 200 pound creation worth three 3,000 roses made from icing and the interior was filled with Grand Marnier buttercream frosting. In terms of costs there are no solid figures but it is believed that this wedding cake is one of the most expensive ever made, costing at least 50,000 dollars. And here we thought we were doing well with that fudgie the whale ice cream cake. Time for our quiz. If you had the same opportunities as Donald Trump, which career path would you have settled on real estate mogul, reality TV star or politican? Think it over a bit while we show you a few more things you may not know about America's current president.

6. Favorite Books
When it comes to literature, Donald Trump has been pretty open about what he considers a good read. Reportedly, the number one book on POTUS's must-read list is none other than the Bible. Then, of course, there are his own books about business and financial success. Moving back into the realm of works some of you may have read, Trump also enjoys All Quiet on the Western Front and Sun Tzu's Art of War. Those were never on Oprah's must-read lists but they are well-known classics nonetheless.

7. Action Figures
The next time you're feeling nostalgic and decide to bust out those old GI Joe action figures, there may be a new addition to the battlefield. That's right, for $59.95 plus shipping you can add to your playtime with a custom made, talking Donald Trump action figure. We're not really sure which side he would fight for. After all, he'd probably fire Cobra Commander for being a constant failure. For the Joes, well action-figure Trump would likely tear down their base, re-build it in gold and rename the organization GI Trump.

8. Schooling
While most people would assume Donald Trump was educated through a series of posh institutions, not many know he actually went to a military academy. That's right, in the 1960s a much younger Trump spent time at the New York military academy. For five years he learned under the strict rules of the school. Attaining the rank of captain over a company of cadets, Trump was even voted "ladies man" of his class. Considering the fact that he landed Melania, we don't think we are in any position to disagree with that assessment.

9. Favorite foods
When it comes to favorite foods, Donald Trump isn't that far off for most Americans. Sure he has a lifestyle and bank balance that support a life of caviar and champagne but he prefers simpler things. On more than one occasion, Trump has been photographed chowing down fast foods from joints such as KFC and McDonald's. In fact, it's rumored he absolutely loves Big Macs but who doesn't? Away from the fast food things don't get that much healthier. Trump loves a good meatloaf and a simple staple is said to be bacon and eggs. Is anyone else getting really hungry?

10. Another Life
It's strange to think that Trump's path through life could have been so much different. You see, while in school, the Donald Trump apparently made a name for himself as a pretty good baseball player. How good? Well, the Phillies and Red Sox both sent scouts to check up on the star 1st baseman. However, when the time came to make a decision, Donald Trump chose college and real estate because, as he said, he wanted to "make more money". In that respect, we guess he made the right choice. So have you come to your final answer? If you had the same opportunities as Donald Trump would you settle on a career in real estate, reality TV or politics? Is it the money, power or responsibility that motivates your decision?

5 Equation That Changed the World
5. Law of Universal Gravitation
Newtons most important law, it explains why planets move the way they do, how gravity works and why are we all attracted to each other. Every object in the universe, no matter how far apart, will always be affected gravitationally by other objects, inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

4. Schrodingers Equation
Developed by the Austrian physicist, Erwin Schrodinger, this equation describes how the quantum state of a quantum system changes over time. It also predicts the behaviour of atoms and subatomic particles in quantum mechanics. This equation was a starting point for the nuclear power and electro-technology.

3. The Second Law of Thermodynamics
This law states that energy will always flow from a higher concentration to a lower one, until an energetic equilibrium is achieved, and all the energy is equally spread throughout the universe. Whenever energy moves, it becomes less useful. This law led to the development of combustion engines and electricity generators.

2. Maxwells Equations
Developed by James Maxwell, these equations are to electromagnetism what Newtons law are to gravity. They describe the interaction of charged particles and how electric and magnetic fields interact and are generated. These equations are at the root of all the electronics.

1. Theory of relativity
Probably the most famous equation, E=mc^2 describes the relationship between space and time. Proposed by Einstein in 1905, it later earned him a Nobel Prize. This equation truly changed the way we understand time, gravity and the universes past and future. After 200 years of Newtons work on gravity, Einsteins General Relativity replaced it, speaking of it not as a force, but rather the curvature change in space-time itself.

5 Events That Will Change the Solar System
5. Ringed Mars
New research has determined that Mars might one day kill its nearest moon, Phobos, which is just 22 kilometers (14 mi) wide. With every passing century, the orbit of Phobos shrinks and brings it closer to Mars by 2 meters. Ultimately, this moon will break apart from tidal stresses caused by the red planet, although the process could take up to 40 million years. In the end, Mars will be short one moon but have a Saturn-like ring to take its place.

4. Moon falling apart
In the distant future, our Moon is also predicted to become a ring around Earth, however this wont happen for another five billion years. Unlike the situation with Phobos, the Suns red giant phase will most likely tear the Moon apart. When the Sun swells during its red giant phase, its atmosphere will push the Moon so close to Earth, that tidal forces will rip the Moon apart.

3. Milkomeda
The Milky Way is destined to smash into its neighboring galaxy - Andromeda. As they move toward each other at the dizzying pace of 400,000 km/h, the Milky Way as we know it only has about four billion years left. The collision will be a spectacular cosmic event that will last an incredible one billion years, and result in a reddish elliptical galaxy, possibly called Milkomeda. Despite all the stars in these galaxies, researchers believe that any collisions of the stars or planets are highly unlikely. But anyways, the Sun will be so hot that the oceans will have boiled away by then.

2. Deadly Cloud
When researchers ran simulations, they discovered that our solar system might eventually hit a deadly space fog. The tiny specks may be lethal to all life on Earth. The danger lies in its denseness. At least 1,000 times heavier than anything that Earth is orbiting through now, this cloud can act like a physical force, pushing back the Suns protective heliosphere that shields us from space enemies like cosmic rays. When the cloud meets Earth, the dust and gas can erode the oxygen in our atmosphere. Cosmic rays will zap the world, endangering all living things with a deadly radiation. According to scientists, its less than four light-years away, but we still have a few millennia to prepare.

1. The big Smashup
Planetary orbital paths arent stable and become even less so as time goes by. In a couple of billion years, theres a small possibility that the planets within our solar system will collide with one another. The path in which Mercury orbits around the Sun might widen enough to cross roads with Venus. Such an encounter could send Mercury hurtling into the Sun, out of the solar system, or on a collision course with Earth. In a less likely event, Mercury might become destabilized by passing too close to Jupiters gravitational forces. In turn, this would destabilize Mars. The red planet would become an indirect bullet that Earth would not be able to dodge. By passing too close to Earth, Mars would cause an Earth-Venus smashup by upsetting the orbit of Venus.

5 Incredible Lost Inventions
5. Cold Fusion Device
Eugene Mallove was a notable proponent and supporter of research into cold fusion. He was the author the book Fire from Ice, which details the 1989 report of successful cold fusion from Stanley Pons and Martin Fleischmann at the University of Utah. Mallove claims that the results were suppressed through an organized campaign from mainstream physicists. He was fatally beaten May 14, 2004 by an unknown assailant. His violent death was suspected by some to be related to the nature of his work.

4. Water Fuel Cell
Stanley Meyer produced nine patents relating to his water powered car. He was subsequently sued by two investors and the court found Meyer guilty of gross and egregious fraud, ordering him to repay the investors their $25,000. Following his sudden death, an autopsy showed that he died of a cerebral aneurysm. Meyers supporters continue to claim that he was assassinated by Big Oil, Arab death squads, Belgian assassins, or the US Government in order to suppress his inventions.

3. Earthquake Machine
At one point while experimenting with mechanical oscillators, Nikola Tesla allegedly generated a resonance of several buildings causing complaints to the police. As the speed grew he hit the resonance frequency of his own building and belatedly realizing the danger he was forced to apply a sledge hammer to terminate the experiment, just as the astonished police arrived. The Discovery Channels popular MythBusters show examined Teslas claim that he had created an Earthquake Machine in their 60th episode. They tested the physical phenomenon known as mechanical resonance on a traffic bridge, which today are built to withstand such forces. While a single I beam of steel was deflected several feet in each direction by their oscillator, and they reportedly felt the bridge shaking many yards away, there were no earth shattering effects. It is worth indicating that, in the time of the event undertaken by Tesla, buildings were not built to withstand such resonance.

2. Flexible Glass
Flexible glass is a legendary lost invention from during the reign of Roman Emperor Tiberius Caesar. As recounted by Isadore of Seville, the craftsman who invented the technique brought before Caesar a drinking bowl made of flexible glass, and Caesar threw it to the floor, whereupon the material dented, rather than shattering. The inventor was able to simply repair the dent with a small hammer. After the inventor swore to the Emperor that he alone knew the technique of manufacture, Caesar had the man beheaded, fearing such material could undermine the value of gold and silver.

1. Chronovision
Father Ernetti was known as an exorcist in the Venice region, but more especially because of his work on the chronovision. In the 1960s he is said to have constructed a time viewer in the 1950s, as part of a group that supposedly included Nobel Laureate Enrico Fermi and Wernher von Braun. The machine was called the Chronovisor, and could allegedly see and hear events of the past. According to an explanation by Ernetti, the luminous energy and sound that objects emanate are recorded in their environment, such that proper use of the chronovisor could reconstruct from said energy the images and sounds of a specific set of events from the past. Through the viewing screen of the chronovisor Father Ernetti claimed to have witnessed a performance in Rome in 169 BC of the now lost tragedy, Thyestes, by the father of Latin poetry, Quintus Ennius. He also claimed to have witnessed Christ dying on the cross. On his death bed in 1994, Father Ernetti said that he attended a meeting of all the people involved in the chronovision at the Vatican during which the only existing machine was destroyed.

5 Phenomena Faster Than Light
5 Things that travel faster than Light According to Einstein, nothing in the Universe that has mass could move faster, or at the speed of light, which is about 300.000km/s. In reality, there is a number of phenomena that have the ability to actually beat the speed of light.

5. Quantum Entanglement
A group of scientists from have been able to achieve teleportation of information. The team has shown that its possible to transfer some information between photons. Then they used a laser pulse to create a quantum state known as entanglement, which essentially lets two atoms displace properties from one to the other. The information would travel faster than the speed of light. It would instantaneously displace proprieties, even if the particles would be at 2 different edges of the universe.

4. The light boom
Like the sonic boom, a light boom happens when something accelerates to a point that it breaks the light barrier. This mostly takes place inside nuclear reactors. When the core of a reactor is submerged in water, where light moves at 75% the speed it would move in vacuum, the electrons generated by the reactor move past that speed. This results in a blue glow, known as Cherenkov radiation, and creates a sort of shock wave of light.

3. The Universes Expansion
To clarify, relativity says that objects cannot travel faster than the speed of light through spacetime. It doesnt, however, have anything to say about spacetime itself. And in fact, spacetime is expanding and pushing matter apart faster than the speed of light. In this respect, every portion of space is expanding and stretching. Its not even that the edges are flying outwards, but that spacetime itselfthe area between galaxies, stars, planets, you and Iis stretching. And it is doing so faster than the speed of light.

2. A Laser
Imagine having a super-powerful laser, which is pointing at one side of the moon. In an instant, change its direction, so that it now points at the other side. This made the laser point travel across the moon faster than the speed of light. However, this doesnt break any rules, as you are only moving a geometric point, not a physical object. In reality, the photons the laser is made of, still move at the speed of light, you are just changing their orientation.

1. Wormhole
If youre trying to reach for the stars, even traveling at the speed of light, we would still need some good thousands of years. Thankfully, Einsteins general theory of relativity opened the possibility of warping spacetime, in what we call  wormholes. The biggest problem with this idea is the energy that it would take to hold that wormhole openand of course, all of the hazards that would come with diving into it. Were not even sure they can exist, but if they do, they would allow one to travel faster than light.

9 Crazy Discoveries That Might Change History
From the secret past of Antarctica, to a breakthrough in the hunt for Queen Nefertiti's tomb. Today we look at 9 CRAZY Discoveries That Might Change History!

9. Chinese Petroglyphs
While epigraph hobbyist John Ruskamp was hiking through New Mexico's Petroglyph National Monument he noticed some markings etched into the side of the rock that seemed out of place next to those he knew to be from Native Americans. After studying the markings more he found that they were most reminiscent of those seen on Chinese Oracle Bones dating back more than twelve-hundred years. There have long been researchers that have put forth the idea that the Ancient Chinese may have been the first Eastern Hemisphere explorers to reach the Americas and Ruskamp believes these carvings prove that theory.

After his initial discovery in New Mexico, uncovering the possible presence of the Ancient Chinese in North America became an obsession for him. Searching various National Parks throughout the Southwest, he believes that he has found numerous other sites that bear Chinese characters in the states of Nevada, California, Utah, Arizona and as far east as Oklahoma. Although many anthropologists and archaeologists are still skeptical due to the lack of other physical evidence there are some who believe its not a matter of whether the Chinese visited America but when they did and how did their exploration affect Ancient American Culture.

8. Antarctic Paradise
The continent of Antarctica, a frozen wasteland devoid of life aside from some of nature's most evolutionarily ambitious animals. But was it always this way? New discoveries suggest that at one point, maybe even as recent as when the Ancient Egyptians roamed the Earth, Antarctica was a hot and humid tropical paradise. Some of the world's most renowned geologists who dare to brave the Antarctic weather, keep uncovering more and more evidence. The most groundbreaking find being that of petrified tree stumps and leaf fossils that belong to a species of deciduous trees. Researchers believe that these fossils mark the remains of three large forests that once flourished on the continent.

Subsequent studying of ice cores from the region back this up and even clarify a possible timeline. The cores show samples of trees and other biomatter that could have lived as recently as 6,000 years ago. There have also been several researchers that have reported find fossils of small animals and the teeth of an Ichthyosaur. These discoveries tie-in to some modern theories that believe there was a point in the Earth's history that an ancient episode of extreme global warming during which both the North and South poles were similar in temperature to the Equator.

7. Bosnian Pyramids
Where are the oldest and largest pyramids on Earth? Your first guess would probably be Egypt or Mexico, but one archaeologist claims they are actually in Europe. Just over 10 miles north of Sarajevo the capital city of Bosnia and Herzegovina, archaeologist Sam Osmanagich discovered what he claims are three giant pyramids that he estimates are over 12,000 years old. Though the pyramids at first glance only look like large grassy hills,when you consider how much erosion would have occurred over thousands of years and combine that with the hills' uncanny and unnatural resemblance to the step pyramids of Mexico, it's easy to imagine the area being home to an advanced ancient civilization.

Two of these pyramids that he has named the Pyramid of the Sun and the Pyramid of the Moon would be over 200 feet taller than The Great Pyramid of Giza if his claims are true. Many scientists are hesitant to confirm his theories as during the time period in which Osmanagich says they were it is believed that humans hadn't even developed simple agricultural systems and that most of Europe would have been covered in ice. But for as many detractors as there are there are just as many supporters of the theory, Osmanagich has even secured government funding for more research and has become somewhat of a hero to his countrymen.

6. Rooms In Tut's Tomb
When the tomb of Pharaoh Tutankhamun, better known as King Tut, was discovered in 1922 it was hailed as one of the biggest archaeological discoveries of all time but all of the secrets surrounding Tut's tombs have yet to be revealed. Recently, archaeologists using radar scanning technology tested the walls where the Pharaoh's sarcophagus was found in search of hidden passageways. They didn't expect to find much but what they ended up  discovering, could lead to an even more sought after find. Behind the walls of Tut's burial chamber the radar showed what could possibly be two secret rooms.

Further tests revealed that the first room likely is filled with organic materials and metal objects while the other room is also home to unknown organic material. It may be a long time before anyone gets permission to take a sledgehammer to the walls and see what's inside, but archaeologist's have theorized that one of the rooms may lead to the long lost tomb of Queen Nefertiti. They believe this because it has long been speculated that Nefertiti might be the mother of King Tut. This theory is backed-up by several factors such as King Tut passing away at a young age could have led his followers to bury him inside another tomb and the fact that the rest of the tomb doesn't seem to cater to a male Pharaoh.

5. Wandering Head
In 1933, just outside of Mexico City, Mexico a ceramic bust was found buried three floors deep. It wasn't until recently that the true origin of the bust was revealed and with it's secrets startling new theories about ancient exploration started to form. After the combined efforts of universities from Canada, Germany, Mexico and the United States the bust was able to be dated and its possible origin established. The bust was found to be an estimated 1800 years old and it was determined that because of the materials used to create it and the figure it represents that it was made in Ancient Rome.

The head is believed to be a representation of either a Roman emperor, soldier or god because of its facial structure and distinct Roman beard. The astounding archaeological find has many historians questioning whether the Romans may have been the first Europeans to explore the Americas. Others have put forth the possibility that the bust may have been transported to Mexico by the Spanish or pirates who could have recovered it from a shipwreck closer to the Old World. But then the question becomes why bury it? The theory that Ancient Romans may have explored the Americas have been further reinforced by the possible discovery of a Roman sword in Nova Scotia, Canada and a shipwreck near Rio De Janeiro, Brazil that also appears Roman in origin.

4. Lovelock Cave
In the early 20th century, a startling discovery that still cannot fully be explained was made in a cave just outside the town of Lovelock in Nevada. While mining the cave for its large deposits of bat guano, engineers started finding what looked like man-made artifacts. Soon researchers from several Universities descended upon the site and began excavating it. Initial reports have these archaeologists discovering the mummified remains of a group of humans that were over 8 feet tall and had reddish colored hair. Not only that but they found a sandal that was around 18 inches long, the painting of a giant hand print and other objects too big to be used by a normal sized person. The problem is, shortly after the initial excavations these giant mummies went missing and haven't been located since.

Searches that followed did reveal the remains of around 60 normal sized people that are estimated to be over 3,000 years old, but there haven't been any more discoveries that point to the existence of ancient giants. What makes the whole tale more compelling is that the Paiute Indians who have called the area home for thousands of years have legends that speak of a tribe called the Si-Te-Cah who were light-skinned giants with red hair. According to the tales the Paiutes were constantly warring with these enormous foes until they defeated them in a battle that supposedly took place near Lovelock Cave.

3. Atlantean Treasure
When the philosopher Plato wrote about the lost city of Atlantis he mentions it's people being in the possession of large amounts of the metal orichalcum. He goes on to paint a picture of the Atlanteans ordaining entire and statues with orichalcum yet does not specify its properties or why in his time, it was worth almost as much as gold. Today orichalcum is particularly rare but not really worth much when it comes to modern application. So it was shocking when in 2015 a diving expedition found a shipwreck that had a trove of almost forty solid orichalcum ingots. The ship was found between the islands of Cyprus and Sicily and is believed to be over 2,500 years old. Though this time from doesn't match Plato's Atlantis it has reignited some historians hopes of finally figuring out what is truth and what is myth.

2. The Irish Ape
As an ancient site that was long used in royal ceremonies, Navan Fort in Ireland, is no stranger to myths and mystery. Historians had thought they had been close to knowing all there was to know about the area until an excavation in the 1980s uncovered another question. Archaeologists there found the skull of a Barbary Ape, an animal that only naturally inhabits Northern Africa. The skull was found amongst a collection of jewelry, clothing and ceramic artwork that were found to be be well over 2,000 years old. So how did this monkey get to the Emerald Isle? Most likely it was the pet of a roman dignitary or local royalty who had bought it from traveling merchants or brought it with them on their tour of duty. However, there are some who believe these bones could be even older than that and possibly tie into the reality behind myths of the Ancient Egyptians sailing to Ireland.

1. Lead Library
In 2006, 70 artifacts that look like metal toddler-books bound by iron ringlets were discovered in a cave in the deserts of Jordan. These small books, with pages made of lead, can easily fit in the palm of one's hand and may be the key to understanding mysteries of the Christian Bible. The books have been tested to be just under 2,000 years old and place them at a time period just after the life of Jesus. Researchers have found that the images inside the books seem to tell the tales of Christ's life on Earth and if they can be decoded may change the entire interpretation of the New Testament or possibly provide proof. What's more, many of the books are locked shut which suggests that maybe the books were hidden on purpose. Some Christian historians believe they could be the mythical collection of manuscripts that John wrote about it in the apocalyptic Book of Revelation.

10 Discoveries That Will Shape the Future
10. Solar storage material

IMAGINE CARRYING SUNSHINE in your pocket. Danish researchers are developing molecules known as Dihydroazulene-Vinylheptafulvene that store energy from the Sun by changing their shape, and release it when they change back. The system isn’t particularly efficient, but with further refinement it could prove to be an environmentally friendly alternative to current lithium-ion batteries, the researchers say.


9. Making trees grow faster

MIGHTY OAKS FROM little acorns grow, the old saying goes. The only trouble is that it’s a very slow process. Now, a team at the University of Manchester has identified two genes that are able to increase the growth rate of a poplar tree by speeding up cell division in the stem. The work could increase supplies of renewable resources and help trees cope with the effects of climate change.

8. Self-powering camera

CAMERAS that run out of battery just as you’re about to take a snap may soon be a thing of the past. A team at Columbia University has created a pixel that can harvest the energy of the light that falls on it, as well as measuring it to create an image. Currently the camera can produce one image per second, indefinitely, in a well-lit room. Eventually the technology could lead to cameras that can function with no need for external power, the researchers say.

7. Centimetre accurate GPS

IF YOUR SAT-NAV has ever led you into a muddy field, read on. Researchers at the University of Texas have built an inexpensive consumer GPS system that’s 100 times more accurate than its current equivalent. The GRID system reduces location errors from the size of a large car to the size of a pound coin. It could be used for delivery drones, self-driving cars, and even virtual reality gaming.
The system uses an inexpensive receiver to harvest accurate location information from antennas found in mobile phones.

6. An end to hunger pangs?

IF YOU FIND that extra slice of cake too hard to resist, blame your AGRP neurones. Researchers at Howard Hughes Medical Institute found they generate negative feelings that cause us to seek food. With further study, the researchers say they may be able to manipulate this process and put an end to hunger pangs.

5. The flexible robots are coming!

THE DAYS OF stiff, immobile robots may soon be numbered. A team at the University of Pittsburgh has designed a synthetic polymer gel that mimics Euglena mutabilis, a single-celled, pond-dwelling organism. The gel can change shape and move using chemical energy. Scaled up, the gel could be used to create robots that are lighter and have an improved range of motion.

4. Artificial photosynthesis

BIODEGRADABLE PLASTICS can now be made using artificial photosynthesis. The system,
developed at the University of California, is made of tiny bacteriacoated wires that absorb solar energy and use it to convert CO2 into acetate.

3. Quieter flights

AS ANYONE WHO’S ever tried to get 40 winks during a long haul flight knows, riding in aeroplanes can be a noisy experience. Help may be on the way, however, in the form of a thin rubber
membrane that’s been designed by a team at Massachusetts Institute of Technology The material can be placed into the cabin walls and could block 100 to 1,000 times more sound energy when installed.
It works by causing soundwaves created by airflow on the outside of the aeroplane to bounce off, rather than pass through into the cabin.

2. Safer suction

MEET THE NORTHERN clingfish, a tiny fish with serious suction power. A team at the University of Washington is investigating the bio mechanics of how its suction force can hold up to 150 times its own body weight even in wet, slimy environments. The key is an elastic disc on their bellies that
is covered in a microscopic hair-like structure. Similar technology could lead to a bio-inspired device that could stick to organs or tissues without harming the patient, or be used to tag whales and track them, the team says.

1. 'Homing beacon’ to beat bacteria
A MOLECULAR ‘HOMING beacon’ that attracts antibodies has been developed and used to ‘tag’ bacteria by a team at the University of California. One end of the molecule has a DNA aptamer that attaches to an invasive bacteria, while alpha- Gal, a sugar molecule, is at the other end. The alpha-Gal triggers the release of antibodies which then attack the bacteria. The technique may eventually be used to attack any type of bacteria or virus, or perhaps even cancer cells, researchers say.
