The French term “noël” is derived from the Latin term “nasci” which means “to be born” in English. Further more, in the Christian book of Ecclesiastes, the birth of Jesus Christ is referred to as “natalis”. Sélestat, France (pronounced “sill-eh-schtat”) is the birthplace of the Christmas tree tradition, a ritual started in 1521 as logged by town records of the first trees cut solely for decorative purposes. The first Christmas trees were hung from the ceiling of St. George’s Cathedral, a gothic ...

Queen Victoria believed that traveling by rail would be detrimental to her health if she traveled too quickly which is why she insisted upon a speed limit of 64 kilometers per hour during the day and 48 kilometers per hour during the evening. The royal train was fitted with electrical light during the 1890’s and was one of the first trains to have a lavatory. Railway travel for the royals is 4x more expensive than traveling but air with expenses costing £83.75 per every 1 kilometer...

Aircraft windows are typically circular as squared windows with corners are more prone to cracking abs breaking which depressurizes an aircraft and causes it to explode as was the case with 3 de Havilland DH.106 Comet aircraft, the world's first commercial jet airliner, in the UK during the 1950’s.
