NASA genuinely faked part of the Moon landing.

While Neil Armstrong’s first steps on the lunar surface were categorically not faked, the astronaut quarantine protocol when the astrunauts arrived back on Earth was largely just one big show.

Foodie Friday:

It’s National Caramel Apple Day!

Caramel apples originated in the 1950s, likely as an accidental creation by a Kraft Foods employee who melted leftover Halloween caramels to coat apples.

The recipe was a hit and soon appeared on Kraft caramel packages nationwide, though some other sources suggest the idea may have been developed earlier.

Over time, they evolved from the simple treat into more elaborate versions with various toppings and the first caramel apple machine was patented in 1960.

Why do dogs leap at the opportunity to stick their heads out of car windows while riding?

Discover magazine ran through several possible motives. The first is that dogs’ sense of smell is so strong that sniffing all of that passing air is a exhilarating sensation to them. Or, dogs may simply enjoy the passing sights, the air blowing on their faces, and the opportunity to contemplate escape.

Knowledge Nugget:

An MRI is noisy, because its magnetic field is created by running electrical current through a coiled wire – better known as an electromagnet.

When the current is switched on, there is an outward force all along the coil. And, because the magnetic field is so strong, the force on the coil is very large.

Knowledge Nugget:

It’s a phenomenon that has fascinated scientists for decades: couples tend to look alike over time.

The idea first surfaced in 1987, when researchers from the University of Michigan proposed that years of shared emotions resulted in close resemblances due to similar wrinkles and expressions.

A team from Stanford University took another look at the theory and found that people do not grow to look like their significant other, but choose them because of their similar facial features.

The findings suggest that people search for a mate with the same features, just as they do when it comes to finding a mate with the same values and personality traits.
