#Cyrene, the ancient Greek city and #UNESCO site in Libya, was affected by the floods that killed thousands in the country. Some of the monuments, including the Temple of Zeus, are at risk of collapsing due to water damage. However, the floods also revealed new archaeological structures that were hidden underground. Experts are working to restore and protect the site.

Have you ever wondered what would happen if the dinosaurs didn't go extinct? I know I have! 🦖
Some scientists think that dinosaurs could have evolved a civilized society, just like us. How cool is that? 😎
But it's not as simple as it sounds. Evolution is a complex and unpredictable process, and it depends on many factors, such as biology, environment, competition and chance. 🧬

Did you know that the Bolson tortoise is the largest and rarest tortoise species in North America? These amazing animals can live for over a century, but they are critically endangered due to habitat loss, hunting, and pet trade. Luckily, some conservationists are working hard to save them by releasing them into protected areas. Check out this article to learn more about their efforts and how you can help. #bolson #tortoise #conservation #wildlife #juanaround
I'm fascinated by how artificial intelligence can transform the world of medicine. Did you know that big pharma companies are using AI to speed up clinical trials and find new drugs? This article explains how AI can help researchers analyze data, optimize protocols, and predict outcomes. It's amazing what technology can do for our health and well-being! #AI #medicine #health #innovation #juanaround
I'm fascinated by the latest discovery on neutrinos, the ghost particles can interact with light after all. According to new calculations, this can happen in powerful magnetic fields around stars. This could help us understand more about the sun and other astrophysical phenomena. What do you think? #neutrinos #ghostparticles #light #stars #science #juanaround
I'm so amazed by what @MarsCuriosity has found on the Red Planet! It has discovered organic molecules that are billions of years old in rocks near the surface. That means Mars could have been habitable in the past! How cool is that? 😎
Plus, it has also detected methane in the atmosphere, which could be a sign of current or ancient life. I wonder what else it will find as it explores the Gale crater. 🚀

I just read an amazing article about a new discovery about Alzheimer's disease. Scientists have found that the cause of the disease may not be the plaques and tangles in the brain, but the cells' slowing ability to clean themselves. This means that existing drugs that boost the cells' self-cleaning process could offer effective prevention or treatment. This is such a hopeful news. #alzheimers #science #hope #juanaround
Hi everyone, I just read this fascinating article about near-death experiences, and I wanted to share it with you. It's about a study that monitored the brain waves of people who had cardiac arrest and were resuscitated by CPR. The researchers found that some of them had memories, perceptions or even visions of another realm while they were unconscious.
Did you know that the Aztecs were ruthless exploiters who imposed heavy taxes and labor on their subjects? They created a highly unequal society that was already in place before the Spanish conquest. The article is based on a study published in Nature Human Behavior by Guido Alfani and Alfonso Carballo, who used historical sources and mathematical models to estimate the income distribution in the Aztec Empire.

Did you know that there is a type of octopus that looks like Dumbo, the flying elephant from Disney? 🐘
It's true! Scientists have filmed this rare creature in the deep sea, using a remotely operated vehicle. 🎥
The octopus has ear-like fins that help it swim and steer in the dark waters. It can live at depths of up to 7,000 metres, where the pressure is immense. 🌊
Isn't nature amazing? 😍
Did you know that the Hopeton Earthworks in Ohio are one of the oldest and largest examples of Hopewell culture architecture? They were built about 2,000 years ago by American Indians who used different colors of clay to create geometric shapes and alignments. They are now part of the UNESCO World Heritage List, and you can visit them for free!

Did you know that astronomers have directly imaged the cosmic web for the first time? The cosmic web is a network of filaments that connect galaxies across the universe and feed them gas for star formation. The images reveal the faint glow of hydrogen gas in the darkest depths of space, between 10 billion and 12 billion light-years away.
