In 2016, a Ukrainian aero-engineer unveiled a system that would allow pilots to eject the cabin of a plane if the engine failed. After ejection, parachutes would be deployed to safely lower passengers to the ground. However, as it turns out, most crashes are not caused by engine failure. Because problems typically occur during takeoff and landing, the pilots would have very little time to successfully eject the cabin and save passengers. But kudos for your effort!

Anovulatory (absence of egg release from the ovary) infertility occurs in almost 75% of PCOS patients. Most PCOS patients conceive either spontaneously or with treatment for egg release with either oral medications or injections.

Over the years, the Times Square ball has gone through several transformations. However, none of them appeared in either 1942 or 1943. World War II was in full swing, and the army was concerned that the Big Apple's extravagant light shows would make it easy for German submarines to spot American ships in New York Harbor. So Lady Liberty's torch was turned off, the Brooklyn Dodgers stopped playing night games, and the Times Square ball drop was put on hold for two years.

Back in the 10th century, carrots were originally white, purple, or pale yellow. So how did they get their distinct orange colour? The story goes that when William of Orange (King William III) helped the Dutch win independence from Spain in the 17th century, Dutch farmers honoured the King by turning their carrots orange through clever breeding. The new colour became hugely popular and is still the Netherlands official colour and the colour of the Dutch Royal family. The Dutch celebrate King’s Day by wearing orange and even the national sports teams wear orange.

No, not an elaborate April Fool. Many cats have lived at the Museum over the years. Perhaps the most famous was Mike, who guarded the main gate between 1909 and 1929. When he died, his obituary appeared in the Evening Standard and TIME magazine. The picture above shows Mike in action.

 

Arnold Schwarzenegger really got a good deal when he signed on for Terminator 2: Judgement Day. The Austrian Oak was paid the huge sum of $15 million. Arnie only speaks 700 words in the blockbuster hit, which equates to $21,428 per word. It might seem excessive, but considering the film went on to make around $520 million worldwide, it seems like a smart investment by the studio. 

 

Keeping track of all the various vitamin A derivatives available today can be challenging. Retinol, the second-strongest and most widely used retinoid, Retinyl Palmitate, and Retinaldehyde are likely to be found in anti-aging products at the drugstore (which is even stronger.) The most effective over-the-counter alternative for treating acne is adapalene.

The love partnerships revealed in the story's epilogue were one of the most contentious aspects of the Harry Potter series' ending. Rowling chose Ron and Hermione in a controversial choice, despite many fans' desire to see Harry and Hermione get their happily ever after. It almost goes without saying that Rowling regrets matching Harry with Ginny Weasley, believing that Harry and Hermione should have ended up together. Rowling confessed in an interview with The Sunday Times that these narrative decisions were "chosen for very personal reasons, not for grounds of veracity."

Some lizards, such as the Chameleon and the Anole, can change colors. It is unknown what causes this color shift, although it is thought to be significantly impacted by their surroundings or the presence of other lizards!

One of the lesser-known facts of the Indian Ocean is that it has a number of tectonic plate boundaries, notably the Rodrigues Triple Point, where the African, Indo-Australian, and Antartic continental plates collide.

Around 1770, Franz Mesmer is credited with bringing hypnosis to the public's attention. The Austrian physician was probably aware of earlier societies' use of hypnosis, and he spent much of his career researching hypnosis, hypnotic techniques, and its effects on the human mind. Interestingly, Mesmer referred to hypnosis as "animal magnetism" or "mesmerism," and the latter term is still used occasionally today. (We're guessing you're completely enthralled by this fact.)

Hoelun, their mother, reprimanded Temujin and his brother Qasar for killing Behtar. Nevertheless, Behtar's mother Sochigel and brother Belgutai continue to reside with Genghis Khan's family despite Behtar's murder. Belgutai later rose to the rank of general in Genghis Khan's imperial court.

According to English Heritage research from 2010, Stonehenge has a long and fascinating link with astronomy. This is owing, in part, to the monument's alignment with the sunrise of the summer solstice and the sunset of the winter solstice. William Stukeley, a pioneering British archaeologist, discovered this in 1720. Many notable astrologers have examined Stonehenge since then, attempting to uncover links between its structure and the stars.
