🌀 Why Does a Circle Have 360 Degrees? 🤔
(Not 100, 400, or 1000… but exactly 360!)

📜 Ancient Reason:
The Babylonians used a base-60 number system. They noticed the Sun's path took around 360 days — so, for convenience, they divided the full circle (like the sky) into 360 equal parts.

🌍 Astronomical Logic:
Ancient astronomers saw the Sun’s yearly path as a circular motion. Approximating a year to 360 days made the math easy and logical.

📐 Math Magic:
The number 360 is super divisible – by 2, 3, 4, 5, 6… up to 180! That’s why angles like 90°, 60°, 30° are easy to work with.

💡 So, a circle isn’t just a shape… it’s a perfect blend of history, science, and logic!

🌀 Happy Birthday to the Wizard of Electricity! ⚡

🎉 Born on July 10, 1856, Nikola Tesla was the genius inventor who gave the world AC electricity, the Tesla coil, and ideas far ahead of his time — wireless energy, radio, and even X-rays!

💡 He spoke 8 languages, slept just 2 hours a day, and once said:

> “If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration.”



📡 Tesla didn’t just dream of the future — he built it.

⚠️ Fun Fact: He once made an earthquake machine so powerful it could shake buildings... but he smashed it with a hammer before it went too far. 😳

🧠 Gone but never forgotten. Happy Birthday, Tesla — the real ⚡current king⚡!

Ketchup 🍅
Originally came from a Chinese word “kê-tsiap”, which was a fermented fish sauce. 🐠
Not very tomato-ey, huh?😐

@worldof_knowledge

Carrots can naturally come in several colors, not just orange! Here are the main ones:

🥕 Common Carrot Colors:

1. Orange – The most common, rich in beta-carotene (Vitamin A).


2. Purple – Rich in anthocyanins (antioxidants), sometimes orange or white inside.


3. Yellow – Contains lutein, good for eye health.


4. Red – Contains lycopene, the same antioxidant found in tomatoes.


5. White – Milder in taste, lower in pigments but still nutritious.


6. Black (Deep Purple/Almost Black) – Rare, with very high anthocyanin content.



So, carrots can come in at least 6 natural colors — but farmers sometimes grow them in custom shades too through hybrid breeding. 🥕 😋
