Can you solve this weight puzzle?

This fun brain teaser is designed to test your observation skills and logical thinking.

It also helps improve problem solving and creative thinking. In the picture three people are carrying a large tree log.

At first glance it looks like all three are carrying the same amount of weight.

But if you look more carefully you’ll realize that the weight is not shared equally.

Take a close look at the image before answering.

The question is trickier than it seems.

Based on how weight is distributed the person standing in the middle is carrying the heaviest load.

In fact the middle person is supporting more than 25% extra weight compared to the two people on either side.

  • SpaceX’s 4-ton rocket crashes into Moon at 5,400mph

    Elon Musk’s SpaceX rocket has crashed into the Moon’s surface while travelling at a speed of 5,400 miles per hour while a telescope in Chile captured evidence of the impact. The European Southern Observatory’s (ESO) Very Large Telescope observed the impact on August 5 and detected colorful spectral lines of sodium and lithium gas. These were produced by clouds of lunar dust that were thrown up by the impact. The ESO telescope recorded the “chemical fingerprints” of the gas cloud which remained visible for around 5 to 10 minutes. The cloud was estimated to extend across dozens of kilometers. Experts had previously said that the impact could provide valuable data for future space experiments and help scientists analyze the effects of collisions involving human-made space debris. As NASA plans to establish a permanent human base on the Moon in the future understanding what happens when space debris strikes the lunar surface will be important. Impact site The impact occurred at a location on the Moon that is considered to be near the boundary between the sunlit and dark regions. When the impact sent clouds of dust into the air, they briefly became illuminated by sunlight. However, observing them with the naked eye from Earth was almost impossible. Although several satellites are currently orbiting the Moon, none was positioned at the time of the impact to directly observe it. The rocket fragment was approximately as tall as a five-story building and weighed around 4 tons. NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter and South Korea’s Korea Pathfinder Lunar Orbiter are being considered for photographing the impact site. These images could help determine how much damage was caused by the rocket although it may take several days to collect and analyze the information. It is worth noting that the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket was launched in January 2025 and carried two landers toward the Moon. Its boosters returned to Earth while the upper stage continued carrying the landers toward the Moon.

  • 6 Best ways to eat chia seeds

    Chia seeds are often called a superfood because they contain fiber, protein omega-3 fats and several important minerals. Adding them to your diet may support digestion heart health and healthy blood sugar levels. Nutrition experts say chia seeds can be a healthy addition to meals but they should be eaten correctly to avoid possible problems. Why are chia seeds good for you? Chia seeds contain soluble fiber, plant-based omega-3 ALA, protein and antioxidants.  They also provide minerals such as calcium magnesium and phosphorus which are important for normal body functions. About 28 grams or around two tablespoons, of chia seeds can provide roughly 9–10 grams of fiber making them an easy way to increase your daily fiber intake. Never eat dry chia seeds alone One important safety tip is to avoid swallowing dry chia seeds by themselves. Chia seeds can absorb a large amount of liquid and may expand several times their original size. If swallowed dry they could become stuck in the throat or cause a blockage in the digestive tract. It is safer to mix them with enough liquid or add them to foods that contain moisture. Make chia pudding Mix chia seeds with milk or almond milk and leave them for a few hours or overnight.  The seeds absorb the liquid and develop a soft pudding like texture. This is an easy and tasty way to enjoy chia seeds while making them easier to eat. Add them to smoothies Chia seeds can be blended with fruits vegetables or other smoothie ingredients. They add extra fiber and can make the drink thicker and more filling. Make a “Chia Egg” Chia seeds can also be used as an egg substitute in some recipes. Mix one tablespoon of chia seeds with about three tablespoons of water and let the mixture turn into a gel.  It can then be used as a binder in foods such as muffins, pancakes and bread. Add them to oatmeal Sprinkle chia seeds into hot oatmeal or overnight oats. The liquid in the oats helps soften the seeds while adding extra fiber and nutrients to your breakfast.  Mix them with yogurt Adding chia seeds to yogurt is another simple option. The moisture from the yogurt helps soften the seeds while the combination provides fiber and other nutrients. Use them as a topping You can sprinkle chia seeds over foods such as oatmeal yogurt smoothies or other hot and cold dishes. However make sure you consume them with enough liquid rather than eating a large amount of dry seeds on their own. Chia seeds are not the only source of Omega-3 Chia seeds are a good plant based source of ALA omega-3. However, the body does not convert ALA into EPA and DHA as efficiently as it gets them from marine sources. Therefore chia seeds can be part of a healthy diet but they should not be considered the only source of omega-3 fats. The bottom line Chia seeds can be an easy way to add fiber protein and healthy fats to your diet. The safest approach is to soak them or mix them into moist foods rather than swallowing them dry.

    Workers discover gold while replacing sewer line

    When a drainage or sewerage line is replaced, workers generally expect to find nothing more than waste and garbage inside it. However, during routine renovation work in Belgium, workers made an astonishing discovery: gold worth billions of Pakistani rupees. The incident took place in Sint-Gillis-Dendermonde, Belgium. Workers were replacing a sewer line during the renovation of a building. They removed part of the foundation to install new pipes when they noticed something shining underground. At first, they thought they had found one-euro coins but they soon realized that the objects were actually gold. According to Mario, the workers’ manager, “I looked carefully and picked up the gold. Then we dug further and found more coins and gold pieces. It was an incredible experience.” He said that in his 33 years of construction work, he had never experienced anything like this before. An 18-year-old student working with the team said that at first they could hardly believe what they had found because they had never expected to discover gold. After the treasure was examined, it was estimated to be worth around $14 million equivalent to more than Rs2.5 billion. Unfortunately for the workers, they were unable to keep the treasure and had to hand it over to the police. The treasure is currently being kept by a charitable organization.It is still unclear who originally owned the gold. However, the building was reportedly once owned by a wealthy family. Under Belgian law, the original owner can claim such a treasure within five years. If no claim is made during that period, the treasure will be divided between the person who discovered it and the owner of the property.

  • China tests giant fusion magnet

    China has successfully tested the world’s largest fusion magnet weighing 582 tons marking a major step toward developing an “artificial sun.” The technology aims to produce clean safe and nearly unlimited energy through nuclear fusion in the future. The giant D-shaped superconducting magnet was developed by the Institute of Plasma Physics under the Chinese Academy of Sciences. It is designed to control extremely hot plasma using powerful magnetic fields which is one of the most important parts of the nuclear fusion process. The magnet measures 21 meters long and 12 meters wide and has been built for the world’s largest fusion reactor. Reports say it is about 1.3 times larger than a similar magnet used in an international fusion project and can store three times more energy. It is capable of containing plasma at temperatures of up to 100 million degrees Celsius allowing scientists to recreate the same fusion process that powers the Sun. Chinese officials said most of the materials and manufacturing were completed within China reducing the country’s reliance on foreign technology and supplies. China hopes to generate electricity from fusion energy by around 2030. Scientists say an “artificial sun” is a nuclear fusion reactor that copies the natural process used by the Sun to produce energy. If successful this technology could provide the world with a reliable source of clean and almost unlimited electricity in the future.

    Why August 12 total solar eclipse is so special?

    The last total solar eclipse occurred two years ago and once again millions of people will have the opportunity to witness this rare celestial event. This year’s eclipse is particularly special because some observers will see the total solar eclipse at sunset making it an exceptionally rare and breathtaking sight. According to NASA, the total solar eclipse will occur on August 12 but only a limited number of countries will experience totality. People in Greenland, Iceland, northern Spain and a small part of Portugal will be able to witness the total eclipse. In Spain, the eclipse will coincide with sunset creating a spectacular view that is expected to captivate skywatchers. A partial solar eclipse will also be visible across many other parts of Europe and Africa including most European countries and several regions of North Africa. Russia will enjoy another rare phenomenon as a partial eclipse will be visible at both sunrise and sunset. On the remote Taymyr Peninsula, the partial eclipse will begin at sunrise while in another part of the country it will be seen at sunset. Solar eclipses occurring at sunset are extremely rare which is one of the reasons why this year’s event is considered so unique. According to Pakistan Standard Time (PST), the partial solar eclipse will begin at 10:34 PM, the total eclipse will start at 12:12 AM and the event will conclude at 2:58 AM.

  • Too much gaming may harm children

    Online and video games are a popular source of entertainment for children.  However experts warn that spending too much time playing games can affect a child’s mental physical and social development. Playing games in moderation can be enjoyable but excessive gaming may lead to several problems. Experts say the growing popularity of video games among children is becoming a concern around the world. Spending long hours in front of a screen can reduce time for schoolwork exercise and other healthy activities. Research also suggests that too much gaming may make some children more irritable angry or aggressive. According to experts excessive gaming may also affect brain function and the nervous system. Children who spend too much time playing games may lose interest in their studies perform poorly at school and become more likely to develop an unhealthy dependence on video games. Too much screen time can also reduce social interaction. Instead of spending time with family and friends children may prefer staying alone with their games which can affect their communication and relationship skills. Pediatric experts advise parents to set clear limits on screen time and encourage children to take part in other activities. Outdoor games painting arts and crafts reading and other creative hobbies can support healthy physical and mental development. These activities are even more beneficial when parents are involved. Experts also say that spending time with siblings and family members helps children build stronger relationships confidence, and social skills.  If video games become a child’s main focus family life and personal development may suffer. Experts do not recommend banning video games completely as learning to use technology is important today. Instead parents should set reasonable gaming limits monitor what their children play and encourage a balanced lifestyle that includes learning physical activity and family time.
