Paleontologists have made a surprising discovery while searching through 100-year-old fossil collections from the UK – a new mystery species of pterosaur, unlike anything seen before. Lead author of the project, University of Portsmouth PhD student Roy Smith, discovered the mystery creature amongst fossil collections housed in the Sedgwick Museum of Cambridge and the Booth Museum at Brighton that were assembled when phosphate mining was at its peak in the English Fens between 1851 and 1900. These fossils found while workmen were digging phosphate nodules were frequently sold to earn a little bit of extra money. It was while Smith was examining…

Captain America has always been featured as a broad, tall man with a buffed-up body. Chris Evans, the man famously known for portraying the said role, mentioned how intense his workout was. Comparing himself to the comic books, he revealed that he used to “pump up” before any scene that involved him showing off his muscles. The Knives Out actor further stated that there was pressure from Marvel Studios on him to maintain and work on that body every day since they wanted to capture the essence of Captain America. Chris Evans while shooting Captain America: Civil War Chris Evans Felt Intimidated…
New information brought to light that Marvel Studios’ first on-screen lesbian kiss was cut from Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. Marvel Studios, and in turn the MCU, has become more and progressive over the past few years, and Black Panther 2 was a direct result of that effort. Much to the dismay of some, Marvel’s super-powered franchise is more inclusive than it ever has been. The MCU has even been awarded for its on-screen representation, as it introduces heroes of diverse backgrounds, gender identities, and sexual orientations. However, it seems as though the studio may have nixed one recent opportunity for an on-screen first that was…
The comic book movie universe has for a long time been specially equipped with a swarm of writers, concept artists, producers, and creative executives who work in tandem to bring their vision of villains and superheroes onto the screen. Often, those visions get muddied in the enormity and scale of the project. MCU’s Captain Marvel suffered a similar fate at the hands of the CBM franchise and the audience was, suffice it to say, more than disappointed in the cinematic rendition of the intergalactic superhero. Joe Rogan, the “casual” Marvel fanboy has weighed in on the concepts that have rallied…
Temporologists around the world come across dozens and hundreds of evidence of spontaneous time travel. So far, no one has managed to travel through the timeline intentionally. Stephen Hawking, being one of the largest theoretical physicists, rejected the possibility of time travel, but in 2012 he abruptly changed his mind to the opposite. Modern science is increasingly asking the question: Is time static or not? They have been trying to answer it for decades, but so far in vain. Various settings allow you to slow down the passage of time or speed it up by a fraction of a second.…
In July 1947 ranch foreman W.W. Brazel found a strange object in the town of Roswell, New Mexico. It was described as a ‘flying disc’ of shiny material scattered over some of his land. Brazel handed the wreckage to the town’s sheriff who escalated it to the US Air Force. The finding sparked huge interest around the world and put Roswell in the spotlight for UFO hunters who believed it was a sign that aliens had visited Earth. 50 years later, the US Air Force released a 231-page report about the claims that the object belonged to extraterrestrials. The report stated its objective was to…
UFOs have left people with burns, ‘time suspension’ and brain damage, according to a newly released report from the Pentagon. It comes after the now-defunct Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program (AATIP) released documents as part of a Freedom of Information Act request from 2017. The existence of the AATIP was revealed by whistleblower and former head of the program Luis Elizondo in 2017, reports the Daily Mail. It operated from 2007 to 2012. US intelligence officials had been holding onto evidence that UFO sightings have led to unexplainable health effects, including paralysis, electric shocks and even ‘ permanent healing.’ The study, from 2010, pooled…
This python’s jaw has a stretchy secret to gape impressively wide The invasive Burmese pythons slithering through the Florida Everglades eat almost anything they can get their jaws around—and that’s a lot. As their numbers have risen, small mammal populations have plummeted. But larger animals aren’t safe either; people have spotted these pythons swallowing alligators and white-tailed deer whole. How does a snake with a mouth a few inches wide devour something that huge? Answer: They open their mouths very wide, with the help of some newly measured stretching power. A recent study shows Burmese python mouths can stretch four…
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness showed Elizabeth Olsen’s Wanda Maximoff aka Scarlet Witch in a never-before depicted manner. As the primary antagonist of the sequel, Wanda was a force not to be reckoned with. She single-handedly kept Doctor Strange on her toes and her fight with Illuminati was something we never saw before. Elizabeth Olsen as Scarlet Witch However, it turns out that Elizabeth Olsen was not supposed to be the villain at all. In the original idea for the sequel, Wanda was actually supposed to fight alongside Doctor Stephen Strange as an ally. This would’ve turned out to…

Iman Vellani, the up-and-coming actor who has already taken the MCU by storm with her chaotic energy and her extroverted personality, is also the protagonist of one of Marvel’s most diverse projects to date. Not only did she bring Kamala Khan to the screens in all her boundless optimism but was bursting at the seams with energy and, well, opinions. Lots of them. Although the former was reserved for mostly the series, the young actress has vocally shared her bottomless cauldron of comments, inputs, constructive criticism, and areas of improvement when it comes to Marvel and Kevin Feige’s universe. And…
Tobey Maguire’s portrayal of the web-slinger is still unsurpassed and adored to this day. The relatability and the inner struggle alongside the transformative superhero persona that was illustrated by Maguire with his coalition with the director Sam Raimi are still unparalleled, marking it as one of the most influential superhero franchises. Following the release of the first Spider-Man, Sam Raimi and Tobey Maguire’s coalition was deemed as the perfect duo consequently bringing the best out of the web-head, however, The Great Gatsby actor was once on the verge of eviction from the role as a result of some misapprehensions with the studio.…
Rodney Cluff believes that he has unraveled the phenomenon of the appearance of aliens on our planet and other space objects. The fact is that, according to the expert, humanity proceeds from an erroneous concept of the structure of the Earth. In his opinion, the outer shell of our planet is about half of the total size. Then comes a huge hollow space where alien cities, bases, entire countries can be located. Next comes a cobweb of a substance that allows you to restrain the thermonuclear processes of the planet’s core. The core itself is a real star – a…
We understand what the Fermi paradox is and how scientists explain that there are at least 300 million habitable planets in our galaxy, but we have not yet found evidence of intelligent life outside the Earth. Over time, any civilization is able to achieve the technology needed for interstellar flight. At the same time, humanity has never encountered alien creatures. These three inexplicable facts are united by the Fermi paradox. We talk about it and try to understand why we are still not familiar with hypothetical neighbors in the galaxy. Fermi wonders In the summer of 1950, four scientists from the Los…
The greatest evidence yet for an alien signal emanating from space has been discovered by a group of astronomers from a scientific research looking for extraterrestrial life, including the late Stephen Hawking. Researchers have detected a “intriguing radio signal” coming from Proxima Centauri, the sun’s nearest neighboring solar system, which is only 4.2 light-years away. The transmission was successfully received. A team of researchers from Breakthrough Listen is “seriously studying” a mysterious radio signal from Proxima Centauri, our nearest star neighbor. According to The Guardian, the signal occurred in a limited spectrum of frequencies about 980 megahertz with relatively minimal…
The human species’ inescapable goal to spread over the cosmos is to travel faster than the speed of light. When compared to the vastness of the universe, light moves incredibly slowly: a ship moving at the speed of light would take more than four years to reach the nearest stars, and 25,000 years to reach the nearest galaxy, Canis Major Dwarf. Civilizations without the technological capability to travel through space by enclosing their ship in electromagnetic fields are unable to reach the solar system. Valery Uvarov, Director of the International Information Center for Ufological Research, discussed this with FAN in…
Every year the remains of bizarre ocean creatures wash ashore on beaches across the globe, revealing clues about the lives of some of the most elusive and mysterious creatures on Earth. And 2022 was no different. From white whales and giant squids to tiny penguins and swarms of jellyfish, here are some of our favorites. White humpback whale A local man in Australia stumbled across a 33-foot-long (10 meters) humpback whale corpse while kayaking past a hidden beach in Victoria state. Surprisingly, the creature’s body was “pure white” and looked more like a marble statue than a dead whale. Despite…
While Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is expected to be the final adventure for this iteration of the Guardians team, Dave Bautista is already saying goodbye to his MCU role as Drax ahead of the threequel. Dave Bautista Bids Goodbye to Guardians of the Galaxy As per the latest feature from GQ, Dave Bautista opened up about playing Drax in James Gunn’s Guardians of the Galaxy trilogy while also being at peace with the idea that it’s his final portrayal of the character.

MCU mainstay Jeremy Renner reached out to fans on social media for the first time since his devastating injuries that sent the actor to hospital. Renner made unfortunate headlines early in the New Year, as it was reported the actor was in a Nevada hospital after a devastating snow plowing accident that saw a Snowcat roll over the Marvel star’s leg. More details of the accident emerged since that initial report, noting that the 51-year-old was helping to clear a stuck car “stranded in the snow” near his home when the event occurred. Now, Renner is well enough to update the world (albeit briefly). Jeremy Renner Thanks…
James Kune, a physicist, asserts that only one nation can support a civilization with more than a million aliens. According to his estimates, there is a 50% chance of being married to an extraterrestrial, according to ufospain.es Earth is a large planet with many resources for supporting life and a perfect environment. So why aren’t other alien races able to coexist peacefully with Earth’s other species? They may have been doing this for a long time, but because of ignorance, people may not have noticed. Although they are great, a person’s skills are constrained. When compared to extraterrestrial species, your…
The UFO community found various anomalies after studying dozens of official photos taken during the Apollo 17 lunar trip. The last mission of NASA’s Apollo program, which in 1972 sent the first people to the Moon, was Apollo 17. During the 12-day mission, the crew captured about 8,400 photographs of the lunar surface, which are now accessible on NASA’s website. Years after the images were made public, UFO researchers discovered unusual objects in some of the pictures that resemble spaceships but whose origins remain unknown. Some individuals think the anomalies are merely reflections or lens flares, but growing evidence swiftly…
Birds are generally pretty harmless. They’ve been genetically wired to just fly away at the earliest sign of danger, so you can pretty much expect to not get attacked by most birds. Flightless birds are another story altogether though. Since they don’t have the luxury of just flying away and leaving you unable to reach them, they’ve had to swap their “flight” to “fight” – literally. And among all of the somewhat aggressive flightless birds, the cassowary is deemed the most dangerous of them all. Let’s take a closer look at this cute fellow. The main reason why cassowary birds…
You’d think we’ve found all the big boys on this planet already, but this Reticulated Python that was found will prove you wrong. In true Anaconda fashion it measures at a whopping 25 feet and 2 inches, and was adequately named Medusa. It’s somehow owned by a haunted house in Kansas where its job is to stand perfectly still and scare the bajeezus out of visitors – which I suppose it does perfectly fine. But with this majestic creature now making horror movies a reality, how does this one stack up with the rest of its kin? Let’s find out.It’s…
A tricephalic red angus cross calf was born at around two in the morning on Gordon Willner’s farm west of Davidson. It weighed 113 pounds. Representatives from Guinness World Records and Ripley’s Believe It or Not arrived upon Davidson to verify the birth of a three-headed calf. Before the historic occurrence, it had been a typical day on the farm during calving season. Since the cow could give birth at any time, it was being kept under observation. It became apparent that the birth was not progressing as anticipated as her due date approached. Willner felt the first head as…
