Unfortunately, a super abundance of dreams is paid for by a growing potential for nightmares. 1. When our star dies in about 4 billion years, it will end up as a white dwarf. It will be about the same size as earth is now. 2. On average we will swallow nearly 96% of mucus produced. If we didnt we couldnt talk, swallow food, and find it extremely hard to breath. 3. Baltimore in Maryland America, is the heroine capital of the world. There is more heroine sold and used there than any where else on earth. 4. Most insects dont have lungs. They have special openings throughout their bodies to absorb the oxygen and distribute it to the vital organs. 5. The Mariana Trench or Marianas Trench is the deepest part of the worlds oceans. It is located in the western Pacific Ocean, to the east of the Mariana Islands. It reaches a maximum known depth of 10.911 km (10,911 ± 40 m) or 6.831 mi (36,069 ± 131 ft) at the Challenger Deep, a small slot-shaped valley in its floor, at its southern end, although some unrepeated measurements place the deepest portion at 11.03 kilometres (6.85 mi). The pressure there is about 80 tonnes per square inch or the equivalent of having 50 jumbo jets stacked on top of you. 6. If a pair of identical twins had children with another pair of identical twins, their children would be genetically siblings, even though they are actually cousins. 7. The earliest recordings of pigeons in the fifth Aegyptian dynasty, about 3,000 BC. 8. Israel has broke 65 U.N resolutions with no consequences. Iraq broke two and got invaded, bombed and destroyed. 9. Men have nipples because everyone is a female until the Y chromosome kicks in. Everyone was girl embryos. 10.
