Strange natural glass discovered in southern Australia has turned out to be tektites from a massive asteroid impact that likely happened around 11 million years ago. Researchers found that their chemical makeup doesn’t match the famous Australasian tektite field, suggesting these pieces came from an entirely different collision. The glass was created when an asteroid slammed into Earth with such force that surface rock melted, blasted into the atmosphere, and rained back down as glassy droplets. This unexpected find hints at a long-missing impact crater somewhere in the region, one large enough to reshape landscapes and trigger global atmospheric effects. In this video, you’ll learn why these unusual tektites could rewrite part of Earth’s impact history and point to a mysterious event we never knew happened.

More Scientists Made a Terrifying New Discovery Hidden in Australia Videos

Forty-seven people were on New Zealand’s White Island, also known as Whakaari, when the stratovolcano erupted with almost no warning on December 9, 2019. Investigators discovered that pressure had been rising rapidly beneath the crater, creating a sudden steam-driven explosion that sent ash, gas, and rock blasting outward in seconds. The eruption unleashed a deadly pyroclastic surge that swept across the island so fast that tourists and guides had virtually no chance to escape. Scientists now use this tragedy to better understand phreatic eruptions, the kind that show little or no clear signs before detonating with devastating force. And in this video, you’ll see how the disaster unfolded and what experts learned to help prevent similar volcanic catastrophes in the future.
