The day the first person climbed all mountains over 8,000 meters

 

The mountains in the Himalayas are very tall. Some of them are more than 8,000 meters high.

In 1953, Edmund Hillary was the first man to climb Mount Everest, the tallest mountain in the world. This was a very special moment. It’s very hard to climb that high.

Other people also wanted to do amazing things in the Himalayas. Something special happened in 1986.

On October 16, newspapers around the world wrote about Reinhold Messner from Italy. He reached the top of Lhotse, the fourth tallest mountain in the world.

There are 14 mountains taller than 8,000 meters, and Reinhold Messner climbed all of them. Lhotse was the last one he needed to finish. Now, his goal was complete. He became the best climber in the world.

It took him 16 years to climb all 14 mountains.

The first mountain he climbed, Nanga Parbat, was also the saddest. He climbed it with his younger brother, Gunther. But on the way down, the weather got very bad, and the brothers got separated. Messner came down after 6 days, very tired and cold. Seven of his toes had to be removed because of the cold. Sadly, his brother Gunther died.

The day Alan Eustace jumped from the sky

 

On October 24, 2014, Alan Eustace jumped from a very high place in the sky called the stratosphere. He did this in New Mexico.

Before he could jump, Alan had to go up 41,425 meters using a big special balloon. Once he was really high up, he started to fall back down to Earth.

His fall lasted 4 minutes and 27 seconds, and he fell super fast, reaching a speed of 1,323 kilometers per hour.

The jump was not easy. Alan had to wear a special suit to keep him safe from the very cold and strong winds high up in the sky.

It took a lot of work to get ready for the jump. Alan had a team of engineers and scientists who helped him, and everything went well. The jump was a big success!

The Day the Statue of Liberty Was Unveiled

 


On October 28, 1886, a special celebration took place in New York, USA. This day marked the unveiling of the Statue of Liberty. The statue was a gift from the people of France to the United States, symbolizing friendship and a shared love for freedom.

The Statue of Liberty is very tall—about 93 meters, or 305 feet, from the bottom of its base to the top of the torch. She is made of copper, which has turned green over time. In one hand, she holds a torch high, lighting the way to freedom, and in the other, she holds a book with the date of America’s independence—July 4, 1776.

On that day, many people were excited. There was a big parade, and ships gathered around Liberty Island, where the statue stands. Crowds cheered, and the statue became a symbol of hope, especially for immigrants coming to America.

Since then, the Statue of Liberty has welcomed millions of visitors. It’s not just a statue; it’s a symbol of freedom, hope, and friendship between countries. Every year, people remember this day to honor what the statue stands for: the values of freedom and unity.

The Day the First Public TV Started

 


On November 2, 1936, something very exciting happened in London, England. It was the day the first public television service started! This means it was the first time people could watch TV shows at home.

Before this day, people couldn’t watch moving pictures in their houses. They could only listen to the radio, which had sound but no pictures. But on that day in 1936, the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) showed the first TV program on screens that some people had in their homes.

The TV shows were black and white, with no color, and the picture was not very clear. Only a few people had TVs, because they were new and expensive. The programs were very simple, like news, music, and sports. Still, people were amazed! They loved seeing moving images and hearing sound at the same time.

From that small start in 1936, television grew very popular all around the world. Now, almost every home has a TV with lots of colors and hundreds of channels. It all started on that special day in London, almost 100 years ago.

George Washington: The First President of the United States

 


George Washington was born on February 22, 1732, in Virginia, America. He is known as the “Father of His Country” because he played a big role in creating the United States.

As a young man, Washington worked as a land surveyor, measuring land for farmers. Later, he joined the army and became a strong leader. When the American colonies wanted independence from British rule, Washington became the commander of the Continental Army. He led the American soldiers in the Revolutionary War, a fight for freedom against Britain. The war was long and difficult, but in 1783, the Americans won, and the United States became a free country.

In 1789, George Washington was elected as the first president of the United States. He served two terms, or eight years, from 1789 to 1797. During his presidency, he helped build the government, created laws, and set many examples for future presidents. Washington was known for his honesty, bravery, and wisdom. He believed in unity and wanted all Americans to work together as one nation.

After he finished his time as president, Washington returned to his farm in Mount Vernon, Virginia. He enjoyed a peaceful life there until he passed away on December 14, 1799, at the age of 67.

George Washington is remembered as a great leader and hero who helped shape the United States into the country it is today. Many places, like Washington, D.C., are named after him to honor his memory.

President-Elect Donald Trump and Bitcoin

 

Donald Trump has won the 2024 U.S. presidential election. People are now wondering how this will affect Bitcoin. Bitcoin is a kind of digital money. It is not controlled by banks or governments, which makes it special.

In the past, Donald Trump was not a fan of Bitcoin. He said it was dangerous and could harm the U.S. dollar. But recently, his opinion has changed. Trump now thinks Bitcoin might be helpful for some people, especially for keeping their money safe.

After Donald Trump's victory, the price of Bitcoin surged. Many believe this is because people are curious about how Trump might treat Bitcoin. Some think he could make policies that support digital money. If this happens, Bitcoin might become even more valuable.

But Bitcoin is still risky. Its price goes up and down very quickly. Some experts say it is too soon to know if Trump’s presidency will be good or bad for Bitcoin. They advise people to be careful when investing in it.

Trump’s plans for Bitcoin are not clear yet. If he supports Bitcoin, it could grow in popularity. But if he makes strict rules, it could hurt Bitcoin’s value.

Right now, people are watching Trump closely. They want to see what he will do about Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. His decisions could change the future of digital money in the U.S. and around the world.
