The Fastest Elevator in The World

Shangai Tower Today we’re talking about elevators. This is the Shanghai tower- the second tallest building in the world behind the Burj Khalifa in Dubai.  Now, building tall buildings is a bit of a…uhh… rooster measuring contest and nowhere likes flaunting their flightless birds more than China and the UAE.  The Shanghai Tower, which cost $2.5 billion to build, stretches to over 2,000 feet or 600 meters and has 127 stories. As a point of comparison, if you put eight 747’s on top of each other, the Shanghai Tower would still be taller mostly because, according to my engineering degree, that’s not a structurally sound building.  Also Read: What is the fastest object ever made? Now, part of the difficulty in having buildings this tall is that people, who mostly come from the ground, need to get to the top of the building quickly. If people can’t get to the top of the building easily and quickly, they won’t want to buy property in the building, which I’m told is a pretty imp...

The US President for one day

Over the years, the US has had a lot of presidents: Democratic presidents, Republican presidents, Whig presidents, presidents that wear wigs, fat presidents, white presidents, black presidents—well, black president—the list goes on and on.  You’ve probably heard of most of these guys—if you were a good student, you may remember their faces from your high school history class; if you were a bad student, you may remember their faces from the money you used to buy exam keys.  Either way, though, you probably haven't heard of David Rice Atchison, the man who, from noon on March 4, 1849, to noon on March 5, 1849, might have been the 12th President of the United States.  These days, as prescribed in the 20th Amendment, US Presidents are always inaugurated at noon on January 20th, because inaugurations are outdoor events and January in Washington DC is notoriously temperate.  Also Read: Why The US President need Salary? Before 1937, though, US Presidents were traditionally...

Why Hudson Bay Has Less Gravity?

So let’s say you want to lose weight. You have some options. You could join Weight Watchers, you could stop eating carbs, you could train for a marathon, you could cut off an appendage, or you could just move to the Hudson Bay region of Canada.  Why? Because the Hudson Bay is missing gravity. If you weigh 200 kilo-pounds normally, by moving to Hudson Bay, you will, in an instant, automatically weigh 0.01 pounds or kilograms less—and you don’t even have to stop eating pasta.  Also Read: Manhole Cover: Fastest Man made object ever!  You see, back in the 1960's, scientists were mapping the Earth’s global gravitational fields to make a thing that looks like this,and, if you look here, you’ll notice that it's a different color from the not-here parts.  Low Gravity In Blue color (Hudson Bay) This is Canada’s Hudson Bay and this means that there is literally less gravity here than everywhere else on earth. Based on science stuff, this should not have been the case.  T...
