- **[Language](human_language.md) and translations**: translation errors are a rich rabbit hole, revealing not only bloopers but weird differences and features of languages themselves. { Start for example here https://allthetropes.org/wiki/Lost_in_Translation. ~drummyfish }
- **Deep sea, Antarctica and other unexplored parts of the world**.
- **Old [books](books.md) and drawings**, first-hand records of [history](history.md) from before photography. There are no photographs from medieval times, but there are paintings, which are sometimes quite realistic and the next best thing to a photograph. First hand witness accounts of historical events ,such as the Krakatoa explosion, famines, black death etc., are indeed very captivating.
- **Space and distant history**: just viewing HD photos from Mars can fill us with awe for hours, and then there are videos of [Earth](earth.md) from the ISS (it's surprising how many features can be seen from it, e.g. solar plants reflecting the Sun), videos and photos from the [Moon](moon.md), photos of distant planets (Pluto, ...) etc. Then there are exoplanets, Universe simulators, supernovas, strange formations in distant universe. Another cool pastime is looking into discoveries about distant past such as the Big Bang, formation of the Moon or the Chicxulub impact (also looking up other big craters on Earth), AND possibly researching accurate predictions of the far future (collision of Andromeda galaxy with our Milky Way etc.).

- **Historical [Jesus](jesus.md)** (and other similar historical figures such as Muhammad, Moses, Homer, ...) -- new archeological discoveries are being made and it's fascinating how much can be deduced from it when connected to other source. We are still getting closer to the true image of perhaps the most famous man in history.
