Legendary creations of the Russian nugget Alexander Vershinin: His amazing glasses
More than 200 years ago glassmaker Alexander Vershinin, a serf, created unique two-layer glasses, between the walls of which there were whole pictures, or rather, small models of landscapes made of pebbles, moss, straw, colored threads and paper. No one has been able to understand the secret of their manufacture and reproduce such products so far.

The composition of Roman concrete (pozzolana) is well known - volcanic ash and lime. But it could not be reproduced.
Scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology studied samples of Roman concrete under an electron microscope, with the help of energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction and confocal Raman imaging and realized that the composition was added quicklime at high temperatures.
When cracks appeared in the concrete, sooner or later water got into it, reacted with the lime, forming a calcium-rich solution that hardened and completely glued the crack in just 2 weeks.
That is, the ancient Romans created a self-healing material for construction 2,000 years ago. Now remember that modern concrete only lasts 50-100 years

-Left is a microscope image of our DNA at maximum magnification.
-On the right are memory sectors from defragmenting a hard disk.
Are you still sure you understand your DEVICE?

-Left is the ancient goddess of darkness, Hecate.
-On the right is the statue of liberty.
Some people believe that the pedestal actually affects people's subconscious and that supposedly the torch has a backup repeater built into it.
Now do you have any idea what kind of freedom we're talking about?

"The Book of the Diversity of the World" by Marco Polo has been translated into 6 languages, 4 times published in the original. Despite the fact that the Book is now one of the most popular objects of research, Marco's testimonies were perceived with distrust, "unwilling to accept the denoscription of the well-organized and hospitable Mongol Empire, which contradicted the traditional Western view of barbarians."
In particular, in Chapter 16 Polo mentions only the official alphabets of Tartary, or Tatars, as they were translated into Russian: "Marco, the son of Nicholas, somehow very soon took a closer look at the Tatar customs and learned their language and writing. I tell you the truth, he learned their language, and the four alphabets, and writing in a very short time, soon after coming to the court of the great khan." - The 4 alphabets do not fit well with those uneducated barbarians that history portrays.

In 1965 in Ecuador, a group of scientists, with the help of local Indians, discovered a huge underground labyrinth and an ancient library
Inside it contained 1000 books made of thin metal plates.
When scientists tried to decipher the unfamiliar symbols on these plates, it became clear that they carry information about a long-vanished civilization.
Very powerful, currently unknown metalworking techniques were used to apply these symbols.
Unfortunately, the research was abandoned as the entrances to the labyrinths of Ecuador remain hidden and protected by local Indian tribes.

About the tablet with the text from the temple of Baal Hamon
The Romans destroyed Carthage by preserving it. The tablet describes how the navigator Gannon sailed along the coast of Africa, founded colonies in the area of Gibraltar and through the strait to the south of the continent, describing the gorillas seen on the shores of Gabon.
Already in 5c BC people traveled great distances on their ships, explored distant lands and made maps. It turns out that all European geographical discoveries are dust in the eyes of the population.

In the 1920s, a portal was discovered underground in Iraq.
According to popular belief, Iraq was once the Garden of Eden. It was also the home of the former Sumerians, who had a strong belief related to spatial travel.
On March 20, 2003, the U.S. invades Iraq with Operation Freedom . Dr. Michael Sallah believes that the operation the US used was just a cover to justify their intervention in the search for Stargate activation.
The doctor describes the Stargate as an artifact that allows matter to travel instantaneously through space and time.

Henry Ford paid maintenance workers to rest, not to work
At one of Henry Ford's plants, a crew of workers was paid for taking vacations. It was a service crew that was responsible for the smooth operation of the assembly line. Simply put - repairmen. They were paid only when they were sitting in the rest room. As soon as the red light of the assembly line breakdown came on, the meter that charged them money stopped.
First, they always made repairs promptly so they could get back to the break room sooner. Second, they always made the repairs with quality so that they would not have to leave the room anytime soon because of the same malfunction.

Mineral Palace, Pueblo, Colorado, USA.
Information about this palace is extremely scarce. According to the official version, the palace was opened on July 4, 1891. It housed the largest collection of minerals and gems in the world.
Considered one of the richest and most luxurious buildings then existing in the United States, the Mineral Palace had a facade with a colonnade, and at each corner on the outside of the building were spheres between the column and the roof. The main dome of the building was 72 feet high. It was decorated with 16 foot long female figures representing different countries of the world. Part of the decoration was the use of 2,200 electric lights with painted flowers.
The Mineral Palace, once called the 8th wonder of the world, stood for 52 years, was demolished in 1943 and disappeared from popular memory.

The stone, which depicts what may be the oldest map of the star path, was found in 1992 by geologist Castillo. The scientist was conducting research in the province of Kapanga, Indonesia, and in the mountains, in the Cave of Satan, found a worked stone, on the splinter of which were written strange signs. They were very similar to the information that the Americans had placed on anodized aluminum plates on the Pioneer-10 and Pioneer-11 probes launched into deep space in 1972 and 1973.
The similarities were striking: the stone, like the plaque, depicted a man and a woman holding hands, as well as the sun, a series of stars and signs in the form of dots and arrows. Geologists believe the stone was worked a very long time ago - several hundred thousand years ago.
But perhaps someone highly developed lived in Indonesia in ancient times, because the "map" reproduces a star system similar to ours - it has one star and seven planets.
