Image
 We all consider the ant to be a true heavy hitter, lifting weights 20 times its own body weight, hurrying around  building nests and tunnels without sleep but, if you consider that amazing just wait till you see this critter, The mantis shrimp.   The mantis shrimp unlike other shrimp in it’s family takes a much fearsome role as a predator This one is about to devour the snail, but she’s gotta crack open it first right??. She carefully positions her legs and punches the snail with its legs with the force of a .22 caliber bullet, yup you heard me right an aquatic organism that can punch and crack open a snail’s shell with the force of a .22 caliber bullet!!, it’s the fastest attack in the entire animal kingdom!!.   This shrimp is called a smasher. The other is called a spearer buried under sand ambushes and impales its prey using a blade at blinding speed and drags it into the sand!! What makes mantis shrimp amazing isn't only it’s blinding speed but also its eyes unlike

  FORD F 150 In recent times we generally like to see the new cars from large companies. In the US generally, people like to buy cars, trucks, minivans, but do you know which company vehicle gets the highest sales in the country? There are quite a lot of changes in cars from the starting of the 2000s and now. We could see drastic changes in the features like increase in mileage, extra safety features, But the major change is the introduction of electric cars. Ford F 150 being the most popular best-selling vehicle in the US for 40 years has released an electric car model called Ford F150 lightning. At first, when I heard the news about it, I was quite surprised by its first look and was quite anxious to know about it. So, I thought I would visit my friend’s house who had this model so that my anxiousness would come down and gain knowledge about it. I was quite surprised by noticing the main advantages which I couldn’t find in any article .when we see the model for the first time we

Behind the scenes of Facebook

As most of u guys use Facebook including me, but some of us don’t know the struggle behind it! It was founded by Mark Zuckerberg and his Harvard college mates Eduardo Saverin, Andrew McCollum, Dustin Moskovitz, and Chris Hughes. It all happened 17 years ago on the 4th of February 2004. It was created in a dormitory! Before the creation of Facebook Mark Zuckerberg created a website called “facemash” in 2003 while attending Harvard University. It was similar to Hot or Not where it would compile all the photos from the Facebook of all nine houses from Harvard and placing next to each other at a time and asking the users who are hotter. Facemash attracted around 450 visitors and 22,000 photo views in its first 4 hours! It was created due to the frustration of his verbal spat with Priscilla Chan who later married him in 2012. Facemash was shut down a few days later by Harvard Administration. Zuckerberg was charged with breaching security, violating copyrights, and violating individual p

The entire history of the universe

The universe began with a Big Bang (13.8 million years ago) and for some time there was nothing but hot matter flying in all directions at the speed of light (300,000 Km per second). First few seconds after the Big Bang!  Very shortly a star was formed and was Methuselah at approximately 13.6 million years ago! It confused astronomers for a long time that this star was older than the universe! At 13.5 billion years ago the first black hole started forming. Scientists believe they are what that’s left from the explosion of stars, but that’s not sure for even today! At the same time, cosmic dust and matter began ionizing helping to form new stars. In the end, it led to thousands and then millions of stars appearing in space. The universe left cold after the enormous explosion started. Then it started heating up again. In about 13.3 to 13.1 billion years ago these stars started to form clusters leading to the formation of galaxies. The earliest of the galaxies did not include any gal

WHAT,S THERE BEHIND THE MOST DANGEROUS LAKE IN THE WORLD:

  A vacation is the perfect time where people think to visit places like lakes, ponds ,etc. Dangers can come from any side like the hungry lion comes in your way or if you eat the poisonous mushrooms in food , do you expect the danger from air literally nobody expects ,a small breathe is just enough for you to die quickly.Its about the lake Nyos   which has co2 content in mixture with magma. The lake nyos   is located in Cameroon’s Northwest Region . It is a crater lake that lies along the Cameroon line of volcanic activity. It is highly acidic because of the co2 leaked from the bottom layers of magma. Although the volcano present in the lake nyos is an extinct one magma flows though which leaks out the carbon dioxide which first goes to the natural springs around it and then dissolves in the water making the lake an acidic one. Nearly 90 million tons of CO2 is charged into the waters of the lake from the magma layer. A natural dam made of volcanic rocks holds the waters of the l

HOW THE CIA STOLE A SOVIET NUCLEAR SUBMARINE!!

  The cold war was as you may very well know, a mysterious time for clandestine missions. Organizations like the CIA, KGB and Mi5 influenced behind the scenes many world events. So much so that some of the greatest movies ( in my opinion) revolve around the dark underworld of intelligence collection. Project Azorian was also known by the sweet and unsuspicious name Jennifer. Was a plan to recover by the CIA a sunken Soviet submarine K-129.   So grab your popcorn and get yourself cozy for an epic story that in some ways is astonishing than the stuff in Hollywood movies.   Just after midnight on February 24, 1968, a submarine set out from a major Soviet naval base near the city of Petropavlovsk, on Russia’s far eastern Kamchatka Peninsula. Powered by a diesel engine, she belonged to the 629A class of submarines, known to the US as golf II, the sub was on its deployment as far away as the coast's northwest of Hawaii. But on March 8th,the soviet base failed to rec

SNAILS AND THE DISEASE SPREAD BY THEM

  SNAIL Of course, you know how strong the animals are, each animal has their own plus point and their own advantage of killing others, they can easily kill humans like lions killing the humans in Africa as the humans are the easiest one for them and cheetahs not listening to the guard in the zoo and killing humans, etc. But there is something that kills the most a number of people than the other animals. It’s a Snail. Though the snails look innocent and calm they are the spreaders of one of the most dangerous diseases called schistosomes.       According to an report from the world health organization stating that around 2 lakhs of people die from the disease related to mollusk and now you know how innocent they are. Schistosomes are the parasitic flatworms responsible for a highly significant group of infections in humans termed schistosomiasis which is considered by the world health organization as the second-most socioeconomically devastating parasitic disease, with hundreds
