The letter “J” was the last added to the English alphabet.
It dates back to 1524. Shockingly, before it became a letter, the letter “i” was used for both “i” and “j” sounds!

The first TV drama was broadcast three years before the first Radio drama was broadcast.
"The Queen's Messenger" was broadcast on 11 September 1928.

The moon has moonquakes.
They occur due to tidal stresses connected to the distance between the Earth and the moon.

Ketchup used to be sold as medicine.
Back in 1834, people with indigestion were given a prescription for the condiment.
