Facts About Tacoma Narrows Bridge: A Tale of Failure And Success
Regarded as the quintessential example of the suspension bridge model, the Tacoma Narrows Bridge is located across Puget Sound's narrows and connects mainland Washington state with the Olympic Peninsula.
The bridge is remembered as a landmark failure in the history of bridge engineering in the world because of its defective structural integrity. The drive to create a narrow, slender, and eye-catching structure was chosen as the identity of the bridge.
However, the components used in the structure were anything but safe. Building the bridge was seen as a massive expense, and funds were taken from various sources by the Tacoma Chamber of Commerce.
In the end, these financial problems became the main issue, as cost-cutting was the leading cause of the collapse of the bridge in 1940, just four months after it opened.
Today, the remains of the original bridge are exactly where they fell, and the wreckage has resulted in the formation of an artificial reef that is protected by the National Register of Historic Places.
Interesting Xia Dynasty Facts: Learn About Their Culture & Origin
The Xia dynasty is considered to be one of the earliest Chinese dynasties that ruled ancient China from 2205 BCE-1600 BCE.
Chinese legends tell the story of the first rulers of China before the Xia dynasty was founded. The country was ruled by the Three Sovereigns, who had god-like powers and created humans.
The Three Sovereigns are also believed to be the creators of farming, medicine, writings, fishing, and hunting. The Three Sovereigns were succeeded by the Five Emperors (Huang-ti, Zhuanxu, Emperor Ku, Emperor Yao, Emperor Shun), who were considered sages.
Legends state that Emperor Yao passed his throne to his son-in-law, Shun the Great. Under Yao, Yu the Great became a legend for his work in averting the flood of the Yellow River.
Yu's legends did not go unnoticed as, in the final years of his rule, Shun the Great, the last of the Five Emperors, considered his son Shangjun to be unworthy and picked Yu as the next king, who went on to create one of the most successful dynasties in ancient China.
55 Amazing Human Body Facts That You Must Know About
The human body is an amalgamation of both living and non-living organs that form the complete system of the human organism.
Although the human body is considered a single structure, it has multiple small structures inside it. And, the organs complete this structure.
The human body is made up of several elements, such as cells, tissues, organs, and systems. There are 13 different types of systems that are present in the human body.
Be it moving or even breathing, every function is carried out by different organs and their systems.
All these organs have unique as well as weird characteristics, such as the human eye being the fastest moving muscle, or the fat content of human beings being enough to produce seven bars of soap or a block of bone that is the size of a matchbox and can support 18,000 lb (8164.6 kg).
However, the functioning of these organs might depend on several external factors too.
Nightwing Facts: Powers, Characteristics, Fights And More
Anyone who reads or has read Batman comics would know about the character named Robin.
But many of us will be unaware of the fact that there has been more than one person who has taken up the mantle of the 'Boy Wonder.' It all began with an orphaned boy named Dick Grayson back in the 1940s.
After fighting crime alongside Batman for more than forty years, the writers of Batman decided in the early '80s that it was about time that Dick Grayson was given a new alias. Hence, the character of 'Nightwing' was born in 1984.
According to one storyline, once Dick Grayson chose to leave Batman's side and go out into the world to do something of his own, he went to seek the counsel of Superman in the city of Metropolis.
The book titled 'Nightwing: Year One' recreates this meeting, in which Superman is shown to have taken Dick Grayson to the former's secret hideout place named 'Fortress of Solitude.'
During the course of the dialogue between Dick Grayson and Superman, the former learns of an ancient hero from Superman's home planet of Krypton. On asking about the Kryptonian hero's name, Superman tells Dick Grayson that the hero was called 'Nightwing.' The name instantly hits Dick Grayson, and he chooses to use that very name while fighting crime.

Fun Ghost Knifefish Facts For Kids
The Ghost knifefish, prominently found in several countries of South America, belongs to the family of ray-finned fishes Apteronotidae. The ghost knifefishes primarily originated in freshwater and deep waters but people usually keep them in aquariums.
Around 89 species such as the black ghost knifefish (Apteronotus albifrons) and brown ghost knifefish (Apteronotus leptorhynchus) are from the ghost knife fish family. Megadontognathus, Platyurosternarchus, and Sternarchorhamphus are a few genera of ghost knifefishes.
Unlike most fishes, ghost knifefishes don't have a caudal fin or tail fin and move with the help of an anal fin on the back. Another feature that differentiates ghost knifefishes from other species is the 'electric organ discharge' or EOD through which the fishes communicate with each other.
The scaleless fish is quite aggressive as well and prey on insect larvae and fishes. The International Union for Conservation of Nature has not evaluated the conservation status of the ghost knifefish yet.
