New revelations about humans’ near extinction spark scepticism
In spite of being the prevailing species in the world, we Homo sapiens ought to count ourselves fortunate to exist by any means. Our precursors were near the very edge of elimination close to quite a while back, as per researchers, with minimal in excess of 1,000 rearing people possibly managing with a desolate presence for over 100,000 years.

WHY TORTOISES ARE TOOK TO MOON?
WHY TORTOISES TOOK TO THE MOON? Three months before a single human was launched toward the Moon, two tortoises had already come back. Sure, they didn’t get to make one giant leap for tortoise-kind on the surface. They just swung around the Moon. But along with some much smaller critters, they were the first citizens of Earth to get that far away from home! This was the USSR’s Zond 5 mission, and it was carried into space by a funky-looking rocket. It’s called the Proton, and it was so successful that its descendents were used for over half a century! If you take a look at a Proton rocket, you might think that it looks a little funny near the bottom. Especially in comparison to other rockets of the era. The first stage of the rocket, meaning the part that holds the first set of engines, has one big central tube surrounded by a bunch of smaller ones. And you might think that those outer tubes would be smaller boosters… separate rockets all coming together to add more oomph. But no. Those tubes are holding the Proton’s fuel. Meanwhile, the center tube holds the second ingredient in making the rocket go up… or in worse cases blow up… the oxidizer that makes the fuel combust. This arrangement was necessary because Proton had to be shipped by train, lying on its side. So the central tube could only be so big. And interestingly, what was in those fuel tanks actually made the rocket pretty controversial, especially during its development. All iterations of the Proton rocket, including the ones that sent missions around the Moon, relied on a fuel called Unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine, or UDMH. And it’s incredibly toxic. It’s so toxic that one of the USSR’s chief rocket scientists didn’t want to use it. But it did have some perks. For example, UDMH, as well as the oxidizer in the Proton’s central tank, are hypergolic propellants,. That means that when you put them together, they’ll spontaneously ignite.

ALL THAT GLITTERS IS NOT GOLD
Once upon a time, in the village of Kilifi, there resided a woman named Fatuma. She was a kind and gentle woman, but also deeply saddened. She was married to Mr. Baraza for ten years, yet they had never been blessed with children. This caused Fatima great unhappiness, and the villagers would mock her whenever she passed by. She was even called a witch by some, but she chose to ignore their taunts and maintain her peaceful demeanor. She was an object of ridicule in the entire village, and was not allowed to attend the mother's meeting or the women's meeting. She would always watch from afar when such events took place.

Can We Travel To The PAST?
Time travel. This mysterious phenomenon has been the subject of numerous disputes and discussions for many years. Today there are many films, TV series, and books about time travel. But despite such a wide discussion of this topic, it still remains unclear whether time travel is possible in reality. Some believe that this is possible, others on the contrary believe that it is impossible to move in time and this is just an invention of Science Fiction. So let's figure out if humanity will ever be able to rewind time and look into other time epics.
