Torosaurus is a genus of large Ceratopsian that lived towards the end of Cretaceous between 68-66 million years ago in what is now North America.

Torosaurus had the largest skull of any known land animal, the skull measured up to 3 metres long. The overall animal was similar in size to the closely related Triceratops, between 7.5-9 metres long and weighing between 6-11 tonnes.

Torosaurus coexisted with several other large dinosaurs including the fellow ceratopsian Triceratops, the armoured Ankylosaurus and Denversaurus, the giant Hadrosaur Edmontosaurus and Tyrannosaurus rex.

Wonder how this cruise ship moved to the top of this hill? The Sun Cruise Resort & Yacht, located on a cliff in Jeongdongjin, South Korea, is a hotel crafted to resemble a cruise ship. It spans 165 meters in length, stands 45 meters tall, and weighs 30,000 tons. Opened in 2002, the resort features 211 rooms, including both hotel and apartment styles, six restaurants, a revolving sky lounge, a nightclub, a karaoke bar, and a seawater pool.
Guests can enjoy the sensation of being on a cruise ship without the risk of motion sickness, thanks to the sound of crashing waves played through speakers around the hotel. The resort also boasts an observation area with a glass floor suspended over the sea, a park with sculptures, and various sporting facilities such as a netted golf range and a volleyball court.

A worker at a frozen fish factory experienced an event he would never forget. During his shift, he was accidentally trapped inside the industrial freezer. Desperate, he shouted for help, but the shift had ended, and the factory was completely empty. As the freezing cold consumed him, he realized his fate seemed sealed.
When all hope seemed lost, something unexpected happened: the door opened, and the factory's security guard rescued him at the last moment, saving him from certain death.
The next day, the manager, shocked by what had happened, asked the guard:
"How did you know he was inside and hadn’t left with the others?"
The guard replied with simplicity but deep meaning:
"Out of all the workers, he was the only one who greeted me every day. He always smiled at me and asked how I was doing. That night, I noticed his absence. I hadn’t heard his voice or seen his smile. I knew something was wrong, so I searched for him… and I found him."
A small act of kindness can make the difference between life and death.

Did you know about......Operation Beluga?? 🐋
In December 1984, a group of 3,000 beluga whales were trapped by ice in the Chukchi Sea, near Russia. The whales were confined to small open water ponds surrounded by thick, impassable ice up to 3 m thick in some areas.
Without access to larger areas of the ocean, the whales had difficulty breathing and were at risk of dying. To help rescue them, an icebreaker named Admiral Makarov was brought in, equipped with a specially reinforced ice-breaking hull. The ship attempted to take the whales to safety by breaking the ice, but the belugas initially refused to follow.
When the crew began playing classical music like Tchaikovsky over the ship's speakers, the whales finally began to follow the Makarov through the narrow open-water channel. This allowed 2,000 whales to reach the unfrozen ocean after a journey of almost 100 miles.
The successful rescue effort lasted several days and was later dubbed "Operation Beluga." It was a massive undertaking that involved several countries, including the Soviet Union, the United States, Canada, and Japan.

The Lion's Paws at Sigiriya are a striking feature of the ancient rock fortress in Sri Lanka.

These massive, sculpted paws are part of the lion's gateway, once marking the entrance to the citadel that sat atop the towering rock.

Today, only the paws remain, with the lion's body having eroded over time. The paws' size and intricacy symbolize the grandeur of the fortress, which was constructed during the 5th century CE by King Kashyapa.

The site is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and offers a glimpse into the ancient engineering and artistic achievements of the region

Starting a very good morning on the island where Hippocrates was born, father of medicine, I'm visiting a good friend: 🌳 jeThe olive tree carved by Mother Nature!
Living in an accidental and terribly unstable terrain, he suffers, over the centuries, the horrors of successive events. These kill him deep in his pelvis and the lignivore mushrooms end up decomposing his entire large trunk. Only a few fragments remain. Fortunately, a single sap passage still supplies the current crown with water and mineral elements. Just magical 🧙

Did you know that Pearls are the product of pain?

Every pearl is the consequence of an oyster that has been hurt by a grain of sand that has entered its interior. An oyster that hasn't been hurt can't produce pearls. In the inner part of the mollusk is a substance called ′′ nacar ′′ and when a grain of sand accidentally penetrates into the inside of the oyster's valves, it covers it with thousands and thousands of layers of nacar to protect itself. As a result, a beautiful and brilliant pearl is forming. I mean, pearls are nacar cysts that form the molluscs to isolate a strange body that has entered its body. Although its size is very small, the world's largest pearl weighs 34Kg, a rareness that was found on Palawan Island with priceless value.
