Extinct Huia Bird Feather The most expensive single feather ever sold comes from the Huia bird, a species that has not been seen since 1907 and is largely considered to be extinct. Native to the North Island of New Zealand, they were hunted for their skin to make mounted specimens as decor and their long tail feathers were also used to decorate hats and things. These birds were black with a metallic green hue, red cheeks, and males had a beautiful, long curved beak. 9. Jade In 2010, the New York Times reported the surprising news that the value of jade had surpassed that of gold in China among the country’s newly-rich citizens taking advantage of newfound opportunities for upward mobility. Over a ten-year period, the cost of jade multiplied tenfold, ultimately skyrocketing to $3,000 per ounce. 8. Million Dollar Parking Spot Anyone who’s driven in a busy city knows that finding a parking spot is often a serious hassle at best, and a complete nightmare at worst. For this reason, some people are willing to shell out big bucks for their right to occupy a space in what’s considered prime parking spot real estate. Such was the case in late 2019 in Hong Kong, which boasts some of the world’s most expensive real estate and faces an imminent housing crisis as the average person struggles desperately to keep up with the ever-increasing cost of living. 7. The World’s Most Expensive Photograph A seemingly unimportant and visually understimulating photo taken by photographer Andreas Gursky sold for an astounding $4,338,500 in late 2011. The image, titled Rhein II, features bland scenery consisting of green grass and grey strips of water and sky. It fetched the shockingly high price at a Christie’s auction, leaving critics to wonder exactly why someone would pay so much money for such an uneventful photograph. 6. Perfect Pink Diamond Ring A diamond ring nicknamed the “Perfect Pink” sold for $23 million in 2010 at a Christie’s auction in Hong Kong, making it the most expensive diamond ever sold in Asia. The sale occurred amid a spiking demand for colorful stones throughout Asia, according to The Jewelry Loupe, which also pointed out that diamonds have no problem selling for high prices in the first place. 5. Pablo Picasso Masterpiece Garçon à la pipe, or “Boy With a Pipe,” is a 1905 Pablo Picasso painting of a Parisian boy with a garland of roses and a pipe in his left hand. In 2004, an anonymous bidder paid $104 million (£58m) for the masterpiece at a Sotheby’s auction in New York City, earning it the distinction of the world’s most expensive painting at the time. The piece vastly defeated its own all-time-high pre-sale estimate of $70 million (£39.3m), going for a hammer price of $93 million (£51.9m) before commission and other associated fees. 4. Bahia Emerald The Bahia Emerald is a massive, 180,000-carat gemstone that miners unearthed inside the Carnaiba Mine in Brazil in recent years. At 4.3 feet (1.3 meters) tall and 794 pounds (341.1 kg), it’s valued at around $309 million. 3. The Card Players Painting French painter Paul Cézanne played an imperative role in bridging the gap between 19th-century Impressionism and 20th-century Cubism, according to Mental Floss. But his arguably most celebrated accomplishment is a series of five paintings called The Card Players. 2. ANTILIA Billionaire industrialist Mukesh Ambani is perhaps less known for his business ventures than he is for his $2 billion, 400,000-square-foot (37,161 meters2) mansion in Mumbai, India. The home is named Antilia after the mythical Atlantic island Antillia, a 15th-century island that reportedly sat west of Portugal and Spain before mysteriously disappearing from existence. 1. Yacht History Supreme Dubbed the world’s most expensive yacht ever built, the History Supreme made international headlines in 2019, nine years after a Malaysian businessman reportedly purchased it for a jaw-dropping $4.8 billion. Robert Kuok, the richest man in Malaysia and the second-richest man in Southeast Asia, supposedly purchased the 98.4-foot (30 meters) vessel in 2011.
With advancements in technology and access to areas once considered unreachable, the field of paleontology is experiencing a golden age of discovery. Roughly 50 new dinosaur species are found each year, giving us a closer look at their prehistoric world like never before. Our previous understandings of how dinosaurs looked and evolved are being revolutionized, especially in regards to evidence that modern birds descended from dinosaurs. But while it’s exciting to see how incredibly far paleontology has come from the previous generations, it’s equally as thrilling to imagine what new discoveries lie just ahead. ➡ Subscribe: http://bit.ly/NatGeoSubscribe ➡ Watch all clips of Nat Geo Explores here: https://bit.ly/NGExplores About Nat Geo Explores: From National Geographic Media, Nat Geo Explores breaks down the worlds of Science, History, and Animals.

SpaceX is targeting Sunday, August 30 at 7:18 p.m. EDT, or 23:18 UTC, for Falcon 9’s launch of the SAOCOM 1B mission, which will carry the SAOCOM 1B spacecraft to orbit in addition to two rideshare payloads, Tyvak-0172 and PlanetiQ’s GNOMES-1. The mission will lift off from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. This mission marks SpaceX’s first launch to a polar orbit from the East Coast, and the first polar launch from Florida in decades. Falcon 9’s first stage previously launched Dragon to the International Space Station for SpaceX’s 19th and 20th commercial resupply missions, and it also supported launch of SpaceX’s ninth Starlink mission. Following stage separation, SpaceX will land Falcon 9 on Landing Zone 1 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. SAOCOM 1B will deploy approximately 14 minutes after launch, GNOMES-1 and Tyvak-0172 will deploy approximately 61 and 62 minutes after liftoff.

Hi everybody! From a long lost water cult to temples that have been hidden under river sand for years, here are 9 incredible recent archaeological discoveries. Follow us on instagram! https://www.instagram.com/katrinaexplained/ Subscribe For New Videos! http://goo.gl/UIzLeB Check out these videos you might like: Unbelievable Animals SAVING Other Animals! 🐯https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HxehUWvMr38 LARGEST Animals Ever Discovered! 🐙https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Yj7F_tPYsU Wild Animals That SAVED Human Lives! 🐻https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mllqeVSsIl0 9. Oldest Known Work Of Art If you thought the Lascaux cave paintings were the oldest works of art in the world, like most of us, then surprise!! Scientists recently discovered a cave painting in Indonesia that’s been dated back to approximately 44,000 years ago, which makes it the oldest known work of art on the planet. 8. Aztec Sacrifices Recently in 2019, archaeologists discovered sacred offerings on what was once an Aztec ritual platform. Their incredible find may finally lead to an Aztec emperor’s tomb. So far none have ever been uncovered. 7. Temple From A ‘Water Cult’ Researchers recently uncovered the remains of a temple from 3000 years ago in Peru which they think was used by a prehistoric Cult of Water for fertility ceremonies. This would place its construction square in the middle of the stone age. But interestingly, this discovery marks the first stone age temple discovery in the region; it was located in the Huaca El Toro archaeological site in Oyotùn, Peru, nestled in between two rivers which are inside of the Zaña Valley, and it’s the only one of its kind in the area. 6. Emperor Nero’s ‘Sphinx Room’ In 2018 conservationists, who were working on the restoration of Emperor Nero's palace in Rome, found something completely unexpected- a secret underground chamber. Inside was a series of colorful animal frescoes, which depicted images of panthers, centaurs, and a sphinx. 5. Ancient Humans In Idaho In 2019, archaeologists uncovered the remnants of human activity from around 16,600 years ago… in Idaho, no less! These discoveries shed new light on how humans must have travelled in prehistory, indicating where they went as they explored the Americas. They discovered these remnants at Cooper’s Ferry, an archaeological digging site that’s located around the Salmon River in Cottonwood, Idaho. 4. Romulus’ Tomb Archaeologists recently discovered a tomb from millennia ago that the ancient Romans thought of as the burial chamber of Romulus, the mythical founder of Rome! While most researchers don’t think that Romulus ever actually existed, it’s clear that the tomb was revered as if it was his. As the legend goes, Romulus, along with Remus, his twin, were the sons of Rhea Silvia and the god of war himself, Mars. 3. USS Nevada We all know that Navy ships are durable and hard to sink. But there may be one ship among all of the Navy’s fleet that stood above the rest for decades. The USS Nevada made it through World War II, even though it was built in 1912. It made it through a number of other insane trials and tribulations as well, surviving nuclear and ammunition tests. 2. Megalithic Monument When you hear about the Neolithic age, you probably think about the megalithic structures of Europe, which are pretty popular. But structures in Middle Eastern countries from the same period are less well known, even though they are equally impressive. In 2020, archaeologists added yet another one of these to the list; deep inside Dûmat al-Jandal, an ancient oasis which contains a number of ruins in Saudi Arabia, they discovered a large triangular platform in the middle of nowhere. 1. Temple of Nageswara Swamy Recently, villagers in a tiny Indian village unearthed a remarkable discovery; the remains of a well-preserved temple that had been lost to time since the 1850s. It was found in Perumallapadu, which is a village in the Nellore district of India. In about 1850 AD, the village was rendered unlivable, because the nearby Penna River was rising and kept flooding the village. When everyone moved away, the sand dunes engulfed the temple whole.

Hi everybody! From arachnids that carry the weight of the world on their shoulders to mothers that engage in light cannibalism, here are ten creepy animals that make great parents. Follow us on instagram! https://www.instagram.com/katrinaexplained/ Subscribe For New Videos! http://goo.gl/UIzLeB Check out these videos you might like: Unbelievable Animals SAVING Other Animals! 🐯https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HxehUWvMr38 LARGEST Animals Ever Discovered! 🐙https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Yj7F_tPYsU Wild Animals That SAVED Human Lives! 🐻https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mllqeVSsIl0 10. Mouthbrooding Fish Mouthbrooding fish go to extreme lengths to protect their young! Mouthbrooding is where parents keep eggs and even newly hatched fish called fry in their mouths for safe keeping! 9. Wolf Spiders Wolf spiders are solitary creatures that roam around at night looking for prey. They are big and hairy and will stalk their victims, overpowering them with their strong bodies. There are hundreds of species of wolf spider that live all over the world. While they have many interesting characteristics, scientists are mostly fascinated by their unique parenting habits. 8. Sea Lice The sea louse is not a particularly well-liked creature. Sea lice are little crustacean parasites which peruse through the ocean waters looking to suck the life out of fish. They tend to eat mucus, epidermal tissue, and blood of host marine fish and are a complete nuisance with no real purpose. 7. Vultures No one really wants to see a vulture on the road; these animals are known for their haunting appearance and, shall we say, less than appetizing diet which consists of decaying animal flesh. The most populous vultures in the world are black and turkey vultures, which tend to hang out with one another. 6. Blood sucking ants If you hear the name ‘blood sucking ant’, then you know it’s probably not a friendly creature. Technically, they’re known as Adetomyrmant, and they’re pretty rare; they’re an endangered species of ant that hails only from Madagascar. They’re also well known for their gigantic stingers; relative to the size of their bodies, this is the biggest stinger of any ant on the planet! 5. Caecilians Although caecilians look like big worms, they’re actually amphibians more closely related to frogs. You can find these strange critters inside of the world’s rainforests, even though they tend to hang out below the dirt. However, their similarity to worms is not this amphibian’s only strange feature. Caecilian mothers are known for their extreme child rearing practices; they allow their children to eat a little bit of them. 4. Stegodyphus Lineatus The Stegodyphus is a kind of spider, and while their bodies evoke creepy images of skulls, and trigger arachnophobia, they’re actually excellent with their children. Almost too much. These spiders were first discovered in 1873, and can be found in semi-arid regions of Israel, other parts of the Mediterranean and certain parts of Asia and Africa. 3. Giant Pacific octopus Giant Pacific octopuses are both bigger and older than every other species of octopus on the planet! And that’s saying a lot, given how large octopuses can get. On average, these beasts max out at 16 feet long (4.8m) and weigh 110 pounds (49.8 kg), but the biggest one that scientists have ever caught was 30 feet long (9.1 m) and weighed over 600 pounds (272 kg)! 2. Poison dart frog Although they might look cute and tiny at first glance, poison dart frogs are actually dangerous. Their bright, colorful exterior bodies hint at what they carry on top of it; super deadly poison. Thankfully, most predators in the environments where they live have taken note of this fact and tempered their expectations of a tasty snack accordingly. 1. Scorpions When you think of creepy crawlers, scorpions are probably among the first creatures to come to mind. But did you know that they’re some of the most devoted parents in the animal kingdom? For one thing, a mother scorpion has a thankless job; transporting up to 100 baby scorpions at a time on her back.
So this morning launch of ULA's Delta IV heavy almost happened. The launch was aborted literally at the last second. This mission – NROL-44 was to launch a payload for National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) , supporting US national security The launch had already been scrubbed the night before. After that abort ULA said the issue was with a critical ground pneumatics control system With the launch rescheduled for 24 hours later, everything was looking good – and the countdown had entered its final phase. With the commentator even declaring “Liftoff....” as T-0 was reached. Before announcing they had had a hot fire abort. ULA released a tweet saying, rhe launch of a United Launch Alliance #DeltaIVHeavy carrying the #NROL44 mission for the National Reconnaissance Office was scrubbed today due to an unexpected condition during terminal count at approximately three seconds before liftoff. They went on to say that it would take at least 7 days for another launch attempt TORY BRUNO – CEO of ULA said The bird is in good shape. This was an automatic abort during the ignition sequence. Cause appears to have been in the ground system. System functioned as intended to protect the vehicle and payload. Whether the failure detected tonight was connected to yesterday's abort isn't clear and they could be two completely separate issues. But , from a ULA perspective, their systems worked as they should. They detected an anomaly and they shut down the launch automatically – with the rocket and its payload being protected, which of course is their priority. Of course, the spectacular fireball that occurs before the launch of a DELTA IV Heavy can surprise some people and could give the impression of problem in itself. However, this is perfectly normal for this launch system and the rocket is designed to be protected from the fire and heat. The fireball occurs as hydrogen is pushed through the engines a few seconds before being mixed with oxygen – as that hydrogen leaves the engine it rises up the side of the rocket and is ignited once the engines fire.
