Once you've blasted through The Immortal Lock quake mod I covered recently, why not jump into BONK JAM which is quite hilarious looking. Here you're given a great big hammer, aptly named the Bonk Hammer. Allowing you to jump higher, move faster and fight even harder than ever before. The developers mentioned it also includes two additional monsters to fight, Bonk Runes to collect as a new in-game reward system to unlock new skins for the hammer.

The frozen continent of Antarctica is, paradoxically, a hotbed of volcanic activity.The ice-capped region is home to some 138 volcanoes nestled beneath the snow, 91 of which were discovered as recently as 2017.Whilst most of them are considered dormant or possibly extinct, three have erupted in recent history according to the Smithsonian Institution’s Global Volcanism Program: Penguin Island in 1905; Deception Island in 1970, and Mount Erebus in 1972.The latter of these is arguably Antarctica’s most famous – winning the titles of tallest active volcano on the continent – with its summit standing at 12,448 feet (3,794 metres) – and...

The natural world is constantly surprising us, and now new research has suggested that ’fountains of diamonds’ could be sent shooting up to the surface of the Earth as part of a major geological event.Supercontinents breaking up could send them spewing up from deep within the Earth’s core, according to research undertaken by Thomas Gernon, who is a professor of Earth and climate science at the University of Southampton.Diamonds are formed around 150 kilometres below our feet and sent firing upwards by kimberlite eruptions which can travel up to 133 kilometres per hour and create enormous explosions on the surface,...

A giant explosion that shook part of Russia more than a century ago has never been categorically explained.And yet, some scientists believe that it could have been the result of a very close encounter with a mysterious form of black hole. The extraordinary blast occurred just after 7am on 30 June, 1908, above the Podkamennaya Tunguska river in what is now modern-day Siberia.Its force was estimated to have been equivalent to as much as 15 megatons of TNT, making it 1,000 times more powerful than the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945, as the Encyclopaedia Britannica notes.The...

Supplies of dissolved oxygen in bodies of water across the globe are dwindling rapidly, and scientists say it's one of the greatest risks to Earth's life support system. Just as atmospheric oxygen is vital for animals like ourselves, dissolved oxygen (DO) in water is essential for healthy aquatic ecosystems, whether freshwater or marine. With billions of people relying on marine and freshwater habitats for food and income, it's concerning these ecosystems' oxygen has been substantially and rapidly declining.

It seems that we're finally locating at least some of the Universe's 'missing' black holes. A cluster of stars called IRS 13 near the center of the galaxy seems to harbor a black hole in its midst. Moreover, the way these stars swarm and orbit suggest that the black hole is a rarity – one in the middleweight mass range, between those that have a star-like mass and the supermassive monsters.
