The Little Albert experiment was a psychology study conducted in 1920 by John B. Watson and Rosalie Rayner at Johns Hopkins University. The study involved an infant known as “Little Albert,” whose real identity has not been confirmed, although some guesses have been made. The research focused on conditioned fear responses, where a child was exposed to a white rat and a loud noise to study learned fear.

The video may be shocking to some viewers, but as it is factual history we added it. View at your own discretion.

Many people feel tired and miserable on Mondays because their sleep schedule often changes on the weekend.

This change is called social jet lag. It affects the body’s internal clock, known as the circadian rhythm, which regulates sleep and alertness. Hormones like cortisol and melatonin control when the body feels awake or sleepy. On weekends, sleep and wake times often differ from weekdays, which shifts these rhythms and affects how people feel at the start of the week.

Researchers have reported a phenomenon called the “returning soldier effect.” Studies found that the ratio of boys born increased slightly during and after major wars in several countries. One proposed explanation suggests that soldiers who survived combat were, on average, taller than those who did not survive.

Some research has also suggested that taller parents may be slightly more likely to have sons. Based on these observations, researchers explored whether differences in the characteristics of returning soldiers could help explain changes in birth sex ratios.

However, while the effect has been observed, scientists have proposed multiple explanations, and the exact cause remains uncertain.

The tallest mountain in the Solar System is debated!

Olympus Mons many times quoted as the tallest is often measured at about 21.9 km high and is an extinct volcano on Mars. Another candidate is a central peak in the Rheasilvia crater on Vesta, estimated at about 22.5 km.

Scientists are unsure which is truly the tallest because defining a mountain’s base and measuring heights in space is difficult.
