A group of islands halfway between Australia and Hawaii have been found to contain deadly levels of radiation, 1000 times higher than toxic sites of stricken nuclear power stations at Chernobyl and Fukushima. The Marshall Islands in the central Pacific Ocean were once an idyllic tropical paradise before they were hit with more than 60 nuclear bombs during testing carried out by the United States between 1946 and 1958. Locals were forced to flee their homes after they were hit with bombs and decades later nuclear waste is now flowing into the water. 😱☠️🗿

With his nose busted and his eyes noticeably blackened, suspected Parkland School shooter Nikolas Cruz appeared in Florida court on Wednesday afternoon, where the start date of his high-profile trial was tentatively confirmed by a judge. Cruz, 20, appeared to have suffered some form of injury to his nose since his last appearance in court, with a bandage placed over its bridge, along with two black lines beneath the base of his eyes. Relatively emotionless through much of the hearing, Cruz, who is accused of killing 14 students and three staff members at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland on Valentine's Day last year, is set to be put on trial on January 20, 2020. His brother Zachary (right) sported two new tattoos on his face.

Trump says he's 'not unhappy' with racism fight's result because 'the race card' is 'the only thing they have' now, telling DailyMail his back-and-forth with Pelosi was 'one of the all-time classics'. In a brief phone call a few hours before he will speak to a rally crowd in North Carolina, the president recounted his week-long game of mental jiu-jitsu with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and said he's 'not unhappy' with the result. He also claimed he has been targeted by Democrats' allegations of racism more than anyone else in history. Trump scoffed at the idea that a foursome of first-term congresswomen have seized the moral high ground in the battle that has gripped the nation's attention since he tweeted Sunday that they should 'go back where they came from.' He said: 'This whole thing with, you know, these people are just so - you know, they try and make themselves out to be innocent!' 😂

The flag, designed by American general Christopher Gadsden in 1775, was originally created to symbolize liberty and freedom.

Fake SNOW could be used to stop the melting of the west Antarctic ice sheet which threatens to flood the world's coastal cities including New York, Tokyo and Shanghai. Scientists say the collapse of the West Antarctic ice sheet - which would threaten many cities with catastrophic flooding - may be prevented by covering it in trillions of tons of artificial snow. ❄️ #science & #facepalm

An asteroid predicted to have a small chance of one day colliding with Earth will miss us this time around when it makes a close approach on September 9, the European Space Agency says. ESA has ruled out an impact this year from an asteroid called 2006 QV89, and found that any future impacts are extremely unlikely. And, for the first time, the scientists made this determination not by assessing where the asteroid is, but by where it isn’t. According to ESA, asteroid 2006 QV89 has not been seen since it was first discovered back in August 2006. While that might sound unsettling, the space agency has ruled out a September 9 impact by way of ‘non-detection,’ after looking where it would be if it were on the collision course and (thankfully) spotting no sign of it. ☺️ #fuck_lucky

The secret locations of US nuclear weapons hidden in Europe have been revealed in a NATO document. A draft report for the NATO parliamentary assembly's defence and security committee seen by AFP gave details of six air bases in Europe and Turkey where it said the US stores 150 nuclear weapons, specifically B-61 gravity bombs. The news comes amid fears of a new nuclear arms race in Europe, as a landmark Cold War treaty between Moscow and Washington is on the brink of collapse.💣
