Evening Medusa

October 23. Cosmos is a battlefield (what ???)

About the past

At the bottom of the Black Sea, a merchant vessel was found, which is about 2400 years old - and it has been well preserved (only lies at a depth of about two kilometers). The Bible Museum in Washington recognized the false third of his collection of the Dead Sea scrolls (and this is one of the most important archaeological finds of the 20th century). Donald Trump spoke about his readiness to leave the contract for the elimination of medium and shorter missiles that the United States signed with the USSR in 1987 - this is the story of the diplomat of Viktor Mizin on how the signing took place near 31 years ago.

And yet. In the city of Ivanovo in 1914, businessman Alexander Dünger built a pseudo -Gothic castle . A hundred years later, it spawned in it, still 20 apartments - and in them, some in the billiard room, who else where, people live. They improve their life without the help of the state - install plastic partitions on the windows, glue the self -adhesive "under the marble". Our correspondent Polina Eremenko went to Ivanovo and talked to them.

About the present

In Moscow, they finally began to demolish the Khovrinsky hospital (perhaps the most famous long-building in Russia; work began back in 1980). In North Ossetia, local residents ralled : they demand from Vladimir Putin to close the Electrozink plant, on which there was a fire (well, or transfer it to the Urals).

And yet. At the Russian polar station, Bellingshausen, the engineer tried to kill the welder - and hit him with a knife in the chest. The victim was taken to the hospital in Chile. Nothing is known about the reasons for the conflict.

About the future (nearest)

Very soon, either you or one of your friends will probably buy an iPhone from the 2018 line. Our employee Sultan Suleimanov took place with one of these iPhones (iPhone XR) for several weeks - andhere he shares his impressions (and at the same time photographs of other Medusa employees).

And in the near future either you, or your friends will get tired of American series-and will want to watch something cool, but not from the USA. Here are five cool series from different parts of the planet - from Russia and Romania to Mexico.

And - a quote of the day.

Do not believe, space is not a battlefield. Sasha Polivanov, Grisha Levchenko
