Japanese toymaker MegaHouse has unveiled a miniature Rubik's Cube, measuring just 0.3 grams across.

The aluminum cube, made from a single face, is about a 1,000th of the original size, with each side measuring just 1.6 millimetres.

Also, Mount Everest, the world's tallest mountain, continues to grow, reaching 8,849 meters in 2019.

However, neighbouring Nepal's Nanga Parbat, which is 8,126 meters tall, can overtake it in 241,000 years, provided erosion rates remain constant.
