15-year-old discovers a forgotten Mayan city

Teenager William Gadoury has become a social media sensation after locating a city in the Yucatan jungle. Having been fascinated by the Mayan civilization ever since hearing about the 2012 apocalypse prediction, the 15-year-old, who is from Saint-Jean-de-Matha in Quebec, came up with a theory suggesting that the locations of Mayan cities might correspond to the positions of the stars. To put this to the test he tried overlaying Mayan star maps with satellite images from Google Earth and was able to confirm that there was indeed a correlation between the two as he had predicted. Using his new method, William was able to infer the existence of another, previously undiscovered city at a location which matched up to the position of one of these stars.

To confirm his finding, he collaborated with both the Canadian Space Agency and Dr. Armand Larocque from the University of New Brunswick who applied digitial image processing to satellite photographs of the region to see if there was anything there. It turned out that the 15-year-old had been spot on all along and had actually discovered a major new Mayan city containing 30 buildings and a pyramid measuring 86 meters in height. William has opted to name the new city K'ÀAK 'CHI' which means "Mouth of Fire".

Only three northern white rhinos now remain

After years of poaching, the world's population of northern white rhinos has been reduced to three. Few species on Earth share the level of critical endangerment as these animals and now, with a mere three individuals remaining, the fate of the northern white rhino hangs in the balance.

Situated in Kenya's Ol Pejeta Conservancy, this lone trio remains under armed guard at all times.

But not all is necessarily lost. While none of the rhinos are capable of giving birth, an international team of scientists from the US, Germany, Italy and Japan are set to attempt the impossible by removing the eggs from the last two females and creating viable embryos from them. If all goes well, a surrogate rhino would then be used to carry the babies to term. It will be the first time anyone has ever attempted such a procedure but at this point it remains the only hope to save the species. Some critics have argued that the resources would be better spent protecting other species of rhino, but it's likely the attempt will be made anyway.

"Unless we act now, the northern white rhino will go extinct," said Professor Thomas Hildebrandt. "And don’t forget that, once we have developed IVF and stem cell technologies to save it, we will then be able to use them to rescue other threatened species."

64 people killed by lightning in Bangladesh

According to reports, several dozen individuals have been killed by lightning strikes in just two days. The chances of being killed by a bolt of lightning are incredibly low, yet for residents in Bangladesh recently this unlikely scenario has been playing out over and over again to devastating effect. Leading Bengali-language newspapers have reported that a total of 64 people have been killed by lighting strikes since Thursday - most of them residing in rural areas.

Factors contributing to this freak disaster are thought to include deforestation across the region and a rise in the number of farmers working out in the open fields using metal tools and equipment. Lightning strike deaths are not something that the government typically monitors in Bangladesh however after this incident there are indications that this may soon change. "We will make all efforts so that lightning strikes cannot be that big a threat in Bangladesh," said Mohammed Riaz Ahmed, the country's disaster management chief.
