As we know that the scientists have discovered mysteries of the world and universe in the past decades. Is it to be believed that humans are involved in causing the global warming?

In 1859, Charles Darwin challenged the traditional beliefs of divine creation with the publication of his book, Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection.

This controversial subject came to be known as “Evolutionists vs. Creationists” and is still debated today (Davis 1999). There are four…

Animal Farm tells a story of a group of farm animals rebelling against the human beings under the leadership of two pigs, Napoleon…

The American space program alone has developed countless technologies that have improved and saved lives. NASA has had over one thousand successful spin-offs that include: Lasik surgery, Tempurfoam, improved kidney dialysis and water purification systems, sensors to test for hazardous gases, energy-saving building materials, and fire-resistant fabrics. When the Hubble telescope was launched in 1990, a flaw in the design of its optics produced blurry images. Three years later NASA was able to…
