During World War II, doctors carried out at least thirty different experiments on prisoners (Tyson, "The Experiments"). They weren’t crazy scientists, rather they were actually well-learned doctors. They’re crimes to humanity were well planned and thought out. They tried to hide the evidence of what they had done, even years later their samples still remain.

As a small population mainly living in Central Europe, the Jews were subjected to the ebbs and flows of popular opinion among…

Daniel Bernoulli, proclaimed to be the greatest out of all the Bernoulli in his family, made the basis for the kinetic theory of gases, applied the idea of Boyle’s law, worked on elasticity with Leonhard Euler, the development of the Euler-Bernoulli beam equation, and one of the most important Bernoulli’s Principle which is critical to aerodynamics. At the beginning of Daniel’s life he wasn’t allowed to choose what he wanted to be or be able to pursue the career he wanted, but this shaped the…
