The article is about what are fidget sinners made for
A fidget spinner is a palm-sized, propeller-like object with three blades and a circular pad in the centre. One needs to spin it and balance the central pad on the fingers or palm. l Fidget spinners are toys used to calm fidgety people and work as a stress reliever. They help people suffering from Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

 Fidget spinners are available in various options—plastic, metal and with or without lights.
The first fidget spinner was designed in the US by two 17-year olds, Allan Maman and Cooper Weiss, and their physics teacher, Eric Savino. They created the spinner by printing it on their school’s 3D printer in October 2016. The product was made for Allan to counter his ADHD. Within no time, the fidget spinner became a sensation. The trio bought eight 3D printers and relocated to Cooper’s basement to match production demands. However, demand quickly outstripped this capacity too and they had to move to a Brooklyn factory where 30 3D printers churned out fidget spinners round the clock. In six months, these spinners reached thousands of homes across 30 different countries. Fidget spinners are now available as a gaming app too.

The History Behind The 2 Minute Maggi Noodles!!

The History of Julius Maggi MAGGI owes its name to founder Julius Maggi (1846 - 1912), entrepreneur and inventor of the first product to bear the brand - MAGGI Soup Seasoning. Born in Frauenfeld, Switzerland, Julius took over a hammer mill from his father in 1869. At the time the milling industry was in crisis so Julius decided to open up new areas of production. He got in touch with physician Fridolin Schuler who had a concept for improving the nutritional content of meals for the labouring classes by making packaged foods out of milled pulses or legumes. Together they began product development and after two years of experimentation, the first industrially produced leguminous flour was put on the Swiss market in 1884. When the expected market breakthrough failed to occur, Julius went back to the drawing board and created MAGGI ready-to-use soups in in 1886, then launched MAGGI flavouring later in the year. More and more new products followed between 1887 and 1889. Julius op

This is NASA's plan if an asteroid is heading to Earth.

The following are   NASA's plan if an asteroid is heading to Earth  Step 1: A text message would be sent to a team of 12 scientists.  Step 2: The scientist immediately start tracing the asteroid's path  Step 3:  They measure the size of the object and predict the time of impact  Step 4: They confirm with authorities whether the impact is unavoidable.  Step 5: A public statement would then be issued. Photo by  Bryan Goff  on  Unsplash Then NASA and emergency agencies how best to protect the Earth. They have simulated this experiment many times and come up with a few defensive options. They include firing lasers into the asteroid. Crashing a spacecraft into an approaching asteroid is another possibility. As is detonating a bomb next to an incoming object. There is no risk at the moment though. NASA can't detect any asteroid currently heading towards us. No large object is likely to strike for at least several hundred years.
