Hidden Purposes of 45 Everyday Things
Common objects hide secret purposes not many people know about. Look around – even in the comfort of your own home – you’ve got plenty of new things to discover! Being surrounded by so many products and services nowadays, we might not even think that they have unexpected features. Sometimes we even use many things in the wrong way, even though the designers actually planned something different for their inventions.
For example, the blue and red parts of the eraser aren’t for pen and pencil. The red side rubs the pencil particles out of the paper, while the blue side is stiffer and scrubs off a thin layer from the paper itself. Isn't it exciting when ordinary things turn out to be completely unusual? Let’s look at 45 everyday things that have a hidden purpose!

17-Things-Air-Traffic-Controllers-Keep-Silent-About
What do air traffic controllers do? Is it a stressful job? An air traffic controller isn't that person on the ground who's standing in front of your airplane waving their hands around! That's an aircraft marshaller - these specialists assist pilots in stopping, turning, and shutting the engines down. Air traffic controllers are responsible for the safe plane movement in the air - and this profession's bound to have some exciting secrets!
For example, they speak not only English (the language of the skies) but also Aviation English! It consists of about 300 words and is a combination of good old English and professional jargon. This language was invented to prevent air controllers and pilots from mishearing each other - in their job, even tiny miscommunication can lead to disastrous consequences!

DON'T
Don't-Charge-Your-Phone-on-the-Bed,-Here's-Why
Can a phone catch on fire while charging? And if it can, how to avoid it? How to stop your phone overheating? The very first smartphone appeared back in 1992, when IBM introduced the Simon Personal Communicator. The device cost about $1,000, could only send emails and run simple apps, and weighed as much as a hammer!
Gradually, the giant dinosaur smartphone evolved and turned into a sleek modern gadget that accompanies us even when we're asleep! Smartphones have taken over – getting rid of our alarm clocks, maps, computers, gaming consoles, cookbooks, and fitness instructors! But do you know what mysteries and possible hazards your smartphone hides? For example, why you shouldn't charge your phone on the bed?

PLANE
Planets,-Stars,-Galaxies-Ranged-by-Size
How big are the planets? What's the size of our galaxy? How big is our Sun compared to other stars? Space is vast. Yep, so much so that even compared to the Sun our planet is no larger than a pin. The Sun over 863,000 miles in diameter, and to get from one pole of it to the other by airplane you’ll need more than two months — and some serious heat protection.
Okay, as you may have guessed, we're going to try to understand how big different space objects are. By the way, the smallest outer space object that people have detected is a micro-asteroid called 2011 CQ1 — it’s just 3 feet across. As for the largest space object in the observable Universe, it's a galactic supercluster complex that is simply unfathomable. Can you imagine 10 billion light-years? Neither can I.

24--Flaws-That-Make-Anyone-a-Bit-More-Attractive
What makes a person attractive? We, humans, tend to get insecure about our imperfections but they actually make us unique. Even studies claim that ’going with our flaws’ is one of the best ways of loving oneself. And your so-called character “weaknesses” could be exactly what people find attractive about you!
For example, stubbornness shows that you know what you want, and you’ve made that decision in seconds. Thanks to your straight-forwardness, people around you already know how you feel from the moment they see you, and they like that. Are you shy? It makes you trustworthy since you seem less intimidating to talk to!

55-Big-Secrets-Your-Body-Hides
Our bodies are perfect machines, performing thousands of processes every minute. And we don’t even know about the majority of them. How much saliva does your body produce a day? Can sweat give away your emotions? How many skins will you shed throughout your life? The human body is one of the most amazing and mysterious things ever. But no one says you can't reveal some of its secrets!
Did you know, for example, that your hair knows when you're asleep? Or that all living creatures on Earth are relatives to some extent? Or why the left lung isn't as heavy and large as the right one? We rarely think about how interesting and unique our bodies are. So here's another compilation of facts about the human body — many of which we never speak about.

Here's-Gaming-of-Tomorrow,-and-It's-Holographic
Is holographic gaming possible? And if it is, how close are we to it? From Ping-pong and 84’s Tetris to Nintendo’s classics; from Wolfenstein and Doom to modern-day VR technology. It seems like games aren’t just here for fun, but to push our technology beyond the limits. So what’s next? Will we play games in holographic augmented reality rooms?
While the concept of holographic gaming isn’t at the top of the list of gamers’ expectations, we’re still about to take a new evolutionary step in the gaming world in general. With the new generation of consoles on the horizon, it’s only natural to expect a rise in processing power, better graphics, and smooth gameplay without stutters and slowdowns. But why not bring some new, exciting, and revolutionary ways to play games?
