Driving south from Detroit will lead to Canada. Specifically, the directions are to head north from Windsor, Ontario, and cross the Detroit River. Eventually, you would have already crossed the borders of the U.S.
100 Mind-Blowing Directions Facts
A total of 32 muscles can be found in one ear of a cat. These muscles allow cats to hear in multiple directions. They can also move each ear independently to detect sounds better.
Sponges hold more cold water rather than hot. This is mainly due to the effect of heat on water on a molecular level. Cold and hot water will have two different densities, and as such their molecules will react differently when in contact with an object. The water molecules or colder water tend to move slower and do not go in opposite directions from each other.
Scientists have taught rats to drive. According to an experiment, rats can learn how to drive. Scientists made tiny cars with an aluminium floor and a “steering wheel” made out of three copper bars. When the rat stood on the car’s aluminium floor and touched the copper bars, it would start an electrical charge that moved the car. By the end of the experiment, they had taught the rats to steer the car in different directions by touching different copper bars. Their secret? Froot Loops. The scientists conditioned the rats to manoeuvre in different ways by rewarding them with cereal pieces.
An ancient Roman graffitied into the paving stones at Ephesus what is interpreted as directions to a nearby brothel.
Travelling back in time is possible—theoretically, at least. According to Einstein’s theory, you could travel back in time by moving faster than the speed of light, as long as you could somehow have infinite mass. Since that probably won’t work, you could create “wormholes” between two points in space-time. (This would also be tough since humanity still hasn’t invented the technology to build a wormhole.) Or you could try bending space-time by plucking some “cosmic strings.” Two of these theoretical strings, which are thin streams of pure energy that are moving in opposite directions at very near the speed of light, could theoretically warp space-time enough to create a closed time-like curve—also known as a time machine.
