Mobile phone caught on footage from 1928! Time travel or something else?

Belfast director George Clarke discovered an oddity in the video recorded during the premiere of the film Circus by Charlie Chaplin in 1928.

This photo has provoked strong reactions of scientists and film experts. How can a woman be recorded with a mobile 80 years before it was invented? Right now, nobody can answer this. The frames were run in slow motion and zoomed, and the only response that comes up is - yes, the footage shows a woman who speaks on a mobile phone, which can also be observed because she moves her lips for a few seconds.

Time travel or something else - for now there is no answer to this.

Circus can be seen on a compilation of Chaplin's films, which was released in the UK. This DVD also contains footage behind the scenes, as well as footage made ​​during the recording itself.

Five highest church and cathedrals in the world

Since the Middle Ages, until the appearance of skyscrapers, Christian churches have often assumed the title of tallest buildings in the world. In 1311 the top of Lincoln Cathedral surpassed the height of the Great Pyramid of Giza. When completed, Barcelona Sagrada Familia church will be the highest in the world with a height of 558 feets. Until that moment, let's look at some of the highest in the world.

Ulm Minster (530 feets)

Ulm Minster is a Lutheran church that is located in the city of Ulm in Germany. Although it is sometimes called the cathedral because of its size, this building was never been that because the seat of the bishop isn’t in it. It was built in gothic style and is currently the world's highest church tower with a height of 528 feets. It has 768 steps leading up to the top. Visitors can go up to 469 feets and there they have a beautiful panoramic view of the city and its surroundings. Spiral stairway that leads up to the top is so wide that one person can pass.

Lincoln Cathedral (524 feets)

Lincoln Cathedral is the Anglican cathedral in Lincoln in England and seat of the Bishop of Lincoln in the Church of England. The building held the record as the highest in the world for 249 years (1300 - 1549). The tower collapsed in 1549 and had never been restored or rebuilt as the original. Renowned writer John Ruskin wrote: "Lincoln Cathedral is certainly one of the most precious examples of architecture on the British Isles." According to the official site of the cathedral, over one million pounds is spent each year for the maintenance, and a major restoration project began in 2000 which includes restoring the entire west side.

St. Olaf (522 feets)

The church of St. Olaf in Tallinn in Estonia is believed to be built in the 12th century and it was the center of the old Scandinavian community until Tallinn was conquered by the Danes in 1219. It is dedicated to the King of Norway Olaf II. The first written records of the church date back since 1267, and they say that the church was extensively renovated in the 14th century. The church has reached its current height of 522 feets in 1500. There was a desire for such a high building primarily because Tallinn was a great seaport, so you could see the church far from the sea. Lightning hit the tower are at least eight times, and the church was three times covered in flames.

Basilica of Our Lady of Peace (518 feets)

Basilica of Our Lady of Peace is located in Yamoussoukro, the capital of Ivory Coast. It is a Roman Catholic basilica dedicated to Our Lady of Peace. It was built in the period between 1985 and 1989. The construction cost about $ 300 million. The design of the dome and the surrounding square is irresistibly reminiscent of St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican, although it is not entirely a replica.

Cologne Cathedral (516 feets)

Cologne Cathedral is a Roman Catholic church in Cologne, Germany, and it is the seat of the Archbishop of Cologne. It is known as a monument of Christianity, specifically German Catholicism. It was built in Gothic style and it is dedicated to St. Peter and the Virgin Mary. Construction begun in 1248 and it was finished, with all the interruptions, in1880.

The largest python in the world caught in Indonesia.

The biggest and longest python in the world was found in Indonesia. This huge snake is 14.85 meters long; the widest part of the body has a volume of less than 85 inches with a weight of 447 pounds. A group of local villagers had gone to the forest in order to obtain supplies, and they saw this beast in a meadow. Too scared to do anything, they called 58-year-old expert in pythons, which organized the whole operation to capture the snake. It took 65 people to beat this beast. After they captured it, they were blessed by the local tribal leaders because they consider pythons to be deities. The python is now the main attraction in a zoo, where about 700 people see it daily. Although large, this snake is incredibly slow and sluggish, and does not represent too big a risk for workers and visitors. But, one thing is certain – to be in the cage with it is certainly not a pleasant experience.

13-year-old found a mistake in NASA calculations

13 year-old German, Markvardt Niko, found a mistake in NASA calculations on the probability of Apophis asteroid colliding with Earth in 2029. 

Earlier, the National Administration of the United States Aeronautics and Space, published the research data which states that the probability of a crash is 45 thousand to 1, but Markvardt found that it is not true.

Markvardt was researching the results from the monitoring of the asteroid Apophis done by the Institute of Astrophysics in Potsdam and came to the conclusion that the collision probability of 1 to 450, not 45 thousand, which is more than NASA anticipated.

NASA experts had to agree with the data presented to them by the 13-year-old student.

If the asteroid passes close enough to Earth, the artificial satellites surrounding the planet, about 40 thousand, can affect the orbit of the cosmic body. At this turn of events, Apophis, with a radius of 3 km and about 200 billion tons, will come back to earth in 2036, but then may fall on the planet.

If this happens, a giant tsunami will be made that threatens to flood much of the coastal countries and much of their land. In addition, there will be a huge cloud of dust, which will hide the Earth from the Sun.
