Archaeologists have identified what may be Europe’s oldest human-made megastructure, submerged 21 meters below the Baltic Sea in the Bay of Mecklenburg, Germany. The evidence suggests it was constructed by Palaeolithic people between 11,700 and 9,900 years ago, probably as an aid for hunting reindeer. This revealed that the Blinkerwall stands on a ridge running east to west, with a 5km-wide lake basin a few meters above the ridge to the south.

In the back of the eye, the retina has photoreceptors that sense light and send signals about the wavelengths they detect through the optic nerve to the brain, which interpret them as color. In fact, our blue-detecting cones can detect some UV light. But the lens filters out most UV light, so the high-energy wavelength never actually reaches the cones.

astronomers have discovered something ‘really surprising’ from billions of years ago which could completely change the understanding of our universe. It came as a result of studying findings from the Near-InfraRed Camera (NIRCam) on NASA's James Webb Space Telescope. The hugely advanced technology allows experts to study the earliest galaxies in the universe, giving an indication of conditions from long, long ago.
