Have you ever wondered how Agatha Christie knew all about chemical ingredients that were fatal to the characters in her crime novels?

The Morse code was invented by Samuel Finley Breese Morse and Alfred Vail as far back as 1837 to enable communication via telegraphs.

It all started in New York in 2002 when seven daring passengers took the subway in their underwear for the first time.

On January 9, 2017, the team of the largest European engineering company Siemens installed a 3D-printed component in the Krško Nuclear Power Plant, namely a metal rotor for a fire safety pump.

While you enjoy watching your favourite movie or series today, don't forget to thank the person who wrote the wonderful movie story.

The first is Letters of St. Nicholas (Listy do M.), and in 2017, he became famous in Hollywood with his film Life in a Year.
