9. Prehistoric Circle Near Stonehenge
While Stonehenge is one of the most famous monuments in the world, there is a lot that we still don’t know about it and new discoveries are being made every year. As part of the ongoing Stonehenge Hidden Landscape Project, scientists recently discovered an ancient ring of deep trenches near Stonehenge and encircling the Neolithic village of Durrington Walls.

8. Bat-Winged Dinosaur
In May 2019, paleontologists from China announced the discovery of Ambopteryx, a dinosaur genus with leathery, bat-like wings that existed over 160 million years ago. The creature’s name, Ambopteryx longibranchium, means “both wings” in Latin. In the words of paleontologist Jingmai O’Connor, who specializes in ancient birds, this creature probably resembled “a creepy-looking dinosaur squirrel.”

7. An Exploded Star
Every atom that’s found on our planet originated in a star when it ejected matter in its dying stages, but some material is much newer than others. In 2016, an amazing discovery was made in the Pacific ocean. About 2.6 million years ago, a supernova exploded around 300 light years away from earth. As our solar system passed through the resultant debris, tiny particles of dust fell through the earth's atmosphere and into the oceans.

6. Fenn Treasure
A long-hidden hoard of valuables with an estimated value of between $1 and $2 million, known as the Fenn Treasure, was finally discovered earlier this year. I just put it in our video of treasures that haven't been found yet too!!

5. Champagne-Scented Orchid
In 2017, botanists in Northern Madagascar’s Mahajanga province encountered a champagne-scented orchid species with large, beautiful petals. The little-known flower is just one of many species of lovely-smelling orchids, and wildflowers in general, that are found throughout Madagascar, which is known for its unique plant and animal life.

4. Mohawk Dinosaur
While working in southern Argentina, paleontologists uncovered the fossilized remains of Bajadasaurus pronuspinax, a giant, herbivorous dinosaur species that boasted a mohawk-like arrangement of spikes along its head and body. The researchers described their findings in a 2019 scientific report published in the online journal Nature.

3. Prehistoric Mine
Underwater archaeologists working in the Mexican state of Quintana Roo recently discovered a prehistoric ocher mine in a flooded cave complex. The mine dates back somewhere between 10,000 and 12,000 years, making it the oldest mine ever discovered in the Americas, according to Mexico’s National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH).

2. Van Gogh Drawing
For over a century, an unidentified Vincent van Gogh drawing sat in a privately owned collection, more-or-less collecting dust as it was passed down from one generation of owners to the next.

1. Blue Whale Graveyard
In 2011 along the Pan-American Highway in northern Chile’s Atacama region, paleontologists began excavating a remarkable collection of what eventually amounted to over 40 ancient marine mammals. The fossilized remains were originally discovered by highway workers embedded in sandstone, roughly two-thirds of a mile (1.2 km) from the ocean and 120 feet (36.6 meters) above sea level.
