Nobel prize winners in physics

 The Nobel Prize in Physics has been awarded to 226 individuals as of 2024. 

  The first prize in physics was awarded in 1901 to Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen, of Germany.

  John Bardeen is the only laureate to win the prize twice—in 1956 and 1972.

  William Lawrence Bragg was the youngest Nobel laureate in physics; he won the prize in 1915 at the age of 25. He was also the youngest laureate for any Nobel prize until 2014  when Malala Yousafzai won the Nobel Peace Prize at the age of 17. 

  The oldest Nobel Prize laureate in physics was Arthur Ashkin who was 96 years old when he was awarded the prize in 2018.

Wonders of world

Wonders of  world : 1.  Catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa , a 2nd-century funerary complex in   Alexandria ,   Egypt . The catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa is a historical archaeological site located in Alexandria, Egypt, and is considered one of the Seven Wonders of the Middle Ages.   2. Colosseum , a 1st-century amphitheatre in the centre of the city of   Rome ,   Italy . Located just east of the Roman Forum, the massive stone amphitheater known as the Colosseum was commissioned around A.D. 70-72 by Emperor Vespasian of the Flavian dynasty as a gift to the Roman people. In A.D. 80, Vespasian’s son Titus opened the Colosseum—officially known as the Flavian Amphitheater—with 100 days of games, including gladiatorial combats and wild animal fights. After four centuries of active use, the magnificent arena fell into neglect, and up until the 18th century it was used as a source of building materials.   3. Great Wall of China , a series of defensive fortificati...

Our solar system

  We call it the solar system because it is made up of our star, the Sun, and everything bound to it by gravity. The solar system has one star, eight planets, five officially named  dwarf planets ,  hundreds of moons, thousands of comets, and more than a million asteroids. Our solar system is located in the Milky Way, a barred spiral galaxy with two major arms, and two minor arms. Our Sun is in a small, partial arm of the Milky Way called the Orion Arm, or Orion Spur, between the Sagittarius and Perseus arms. Our solar system orbits the center of the galaxy at about 515,000 mph (828,000 kph). It takes about 230 million years to complete one orbit around the galactic center. Planets following Sun in nearer to farther order Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune SUN : The Sun center of our solar system is a huge glowing sphere of hot gas. Most of this gas is hydrogen (about 70%) and helium (about 28%). Carbon, nitrogen and oxygen make up 1.5% and the oth...
