In this calm Science for Sleep journey, we explore why Everest is still rising, how scientists measure movements of only a few millimetres, why erosion can sometimes make land rise, what ancient marine fossils are doing near the summit, and how a recent debate over the Arun River may help explain why Everest stands quite so high. ─────── 💤 Best Watched When... ─────── ✓ You're winding down at night ✓ You want calm without pressure ✓ You’re curious, but ready to sleep ✓ You want to *feel* understood, not *be* instructed ─────── 📈 Popular Videos: ─────── 100 Quiet Science Facts That Sound Fake But Are True to Fall Asleep To https://youtu.be/HC4F2t0ggCw Why Astrology Feels So Real https://youtu.be/uL-dtN0hYzw Pet Cats: The Quiet Science of Why They Chose to Live With Us https://youtu.be/4CnwGp5a-HE ─────── About Science for Sleep 😴 ─────── Here you'll find calm, relaxing, science-based perspectives designed for rest.
