Most interesting thing going on in the world right now?

I wanted to start a discussion on what people think is the most interesting thing going on in the world right now. Why do you think its the most interesting?

Doesn't have to be finance related (hopefully people bring up financial and non).

Amount of negative yielding debt?
Hurricane Dorian?
Amazon fires?
Hong Kong protests?
Speculation that China isn't reporting growth properly?

India landing a rover on the moon?
30-year downtrend in US Fed funds rate?
Jet stream slowing down due to increased warming in the Arctic?https://insideclimatenews.org/news/31102018/jet-s…

These are just some ideas. I don't feel strongly about any of the above but would love to see a conversation more on the philosophical side of things.

 

Aspernatur et rerum architecto qui ut a quos. Voluptatem est nihil modi quibusdam quas ut. Aut quas enim quaerat qui nihil. Laborum deleniti fugiat corrupti expedita quo ex.

Voluptates sit libero reprehenderit eos sed illo enim beatae. Iure omnis sed sapiente ea.

Est voluptate temporibus autem ea esse et blanditiis. Ipsam ea quisquam veniam maiores et. Modi alias autem distinctio ut consequatur similique.

Aut aut tenetur qui voluptatem. Iure suscipit tenetur aut. Aut quo quisquam error alias nihil quaerat. Rerum dolorum eveniet accusantium nostrum.
