If there’s one aspect of science that’s become heavily studied in recent years, it’s the science of attraction. What makes us lust for someone, or make us want to enter a committed relationship with someone?

Over the span of decades, scientists have discovered a plethora of factors that come into the attraction equation. Some, such as having a healthy body weight and youthful features, are fairly obvious. Other factors, however, aren’t so easy to pick out.

Science has given us a plethora of wonderful things— medicines, new ways of making food, solutions to pressing social problems, as well as most of the things we use every day. When used responsibly, it’s an incredible tool for good.

Using science for the greater good means holding yourself to a set of ethical standards. Unfortunately, not everyone uses science responsibly, and at times, you won’t get the knowledge you need without having a seriously unethical thing you need to do.

Over the years, there have been many science experiments that were not quite kosher in terms of their ethics. Some were downright horrifying. These experiments, though, go down in history as the worst of the worst.

When people think of America in the 1950s, they usually have a certain image in mind. They think of Elvis and his wild fans. They think of suburban bliss, big American-made cars, easy living, and the uniquely quirky style of the Atomic Age. To a point, this is relatively true for the lives many Americans lived.

However, the 1950s were also known for another issue that’s rather disturbing.

This era was one that went to extreme lengths to test out weapons on people, all in the name of security. One of the most famous instances occurred with the CIA’s Project MKUltra. This series of experiments were conducted to create a mind control device, and one of the most famous products of this decade was LSD.

Much to the shock of civilians, MKUltra experiments were performed on civilians, prisoners, and minorities. In many cases, people had no idea they were even being dosed with the drug at all.

A.J. Styles believes there is stuff out there..

If there’s one thing that most of us can agree on, it’s that the Earth is round. It’s been scientifically proven fact for centuries, and the experiment that proved it to us all can even be performed by an average person. We have photos of the Earth from space, plenty of evidence to the planet’s curvature, and even can take a plane trip around the world for extra personal proof.

That being said, some people are immune to facts. If you believe in the Flat Earth conspiracy, our world is actually flat and people are hiding the truth for their own personal reasons. Crazy, right?

Well, it’s started to catch on with some major celebrities. Sadly, more celebrities are starting to come forth as being open Flat Earthers. We bet you never guessed these big names would believe in this stuff!

Our world is a mysterious one. Even with all the vast quantities of knowledge science has given us, we are not totally capable of understanding every little iota of the world around us. Once in a while, you’ll hear of something so bizarre, so strange, there doesn’t seem to be any reasonable explanation aside from “magic” or alien activity.

Though rumors of the surreal are many, photos of high strangeness aren’t that common. When a photo manages to capture something mysterious, it’s going to make a splash. Though many are later debunked by scientists, not all end up being disproved. These 10 photos, for example, haven’t been debunked, deemed fraudulent, or explained by scientists.
