We Are Awake

PLAGUE warnings were being issued for nine countries in south-east Africa this week, as authorities rushed to contain an outbreak of Black Death. It's the same virus that led to one of the most devastating pandemics in human history, killing an estimated 25 million people in Medieval Europe. The recent outbreak is believed to have started in Madagascar, an island nation off the African coast, and at least 1300 people have been infected. It's a serious bacterial infection transmitted by fleas, and can be easily treated with antibiotics, but  so far 124 have been reported dead . "Plague, though terrifying, is nothing new in Madagascar, where about 600 cases are reported annually," the World Health Organisation said on its website. However, WHO officials warned there is "something different" about this outbreak, and "health officials couldn't explain it". "Plague is a disease of poverty, because it thrives in places with poo

Saudi Arabia is widely considered a barren desert in the ancient ages, but a new discovery hints that the country was home to various archeological sites in the past which are yet to be discovered. A study conducted with the help of Google Earth has discovered ancient giant stone gates in Saudi Arabia, supposedly the remnants of an ancient civilization. With the help of Google Earth imagery, scientists have discovered more than 400 stone gates which were not documented before in the country. David Kennedy, the researcher at the University of Western Australia said that these stone structures will not be visible at the ground level, but once we move up a few hundred feets, these stone gates stand out beautifully lined up. He added that the gates will be visible in satellite images too. "I refer to them as Gates because when you view them from above they look like a simple field gate lying flat, two upright posts on the sides, connected by one or more long bars," said

In a recent breakthrough research, CERN Scientists have revealed that the universe which we know it should not exist.The findings from the BASE (Baryon Antibaryon Symmetry Experiment) are published in the journal Nature. The CERN scientists have performed the most meticulous experiment on antiprotons in which they have found a symmetry in nature that they say just shouldn't be possible. The scientists have raised serious concern about the universe that the first matter formed after the Big Bang. Because according to the researchers, particles, and antiparticles destroy one another when they come into contact, if there were exactly equal measures of both, the universe wouldn’t exist—at least not in the form we see it today. So according to them, there should be an imbalance between particles and antiparticles, even if it is only by the tiniest fraction. "All of our observations find a complete symmetry between matter and antimatter, which is why the universe
