On last Friday, from airline to broadcasting daily operations had come to standstill.
A software update rolled out by US based cyber security firm led to the disruption of work flow across the globe.
The update was meant to make the cyber system secure against hacking, but due to a glitch in the update, the IT systems faced a Blue Screen of Death error which caused the systems to suddenly shutdown or restart.
It has been reported that China remained largely unaffected by the outage.
China's airline and banking sector were not hit due to technical glitch.
Reason is China doesn't rely on the outside infrastructure to support its daily operations.

When I came to know that nitrus oxide is called as laughing gas , I thought by inhaling that gas , people start to laugh uncontrollably.
But that is not so.
This odourless and colourless gas suppresses the central nervous system and creates a sense of euphoria in a person.
When inhaled , nitrus oxide slows down the central nervous system so rational and thinking becomes little slower .
This in conjunction with feelings of euphoria can make a person to laugh but not everyone laughs !!!
Most people experience tingling or vibrating sensation , sleepy or drowsiness
That's why , nitrus oxide is used as anaesthetic to sedate patients and releave pain .
Nitrus oxide starts working within 5 seconds of administration. Patients will be normal as soon as they inhale oxygen

When I heard the question, I thought what a simple question.
A school going child also can answer this question.

Just imagine all the people are taking part in a competition.
What could be the number of people if I say they are in a circle.
At that time, only 3 people are needed to match the criteria as explained in the question !!!!
Answer is 3 people.
Now please read the question once again !!!!

Solar system is an enormous place...
It has 8 planets,
over a half dozen dwarf planets
Several hundred moons
Millions of asteroids and comets all spinning around the sun.
But where does it end ??
The scientists think of 3 boundaries.
1. The Kuiper Belt
It is the ring of rocky bodies beyond the orbit of Neptune.
2. The heliopause
It is the edge of Sun's magnetic field.
3. The oort cloud
It is the distant reservoir of comets.
Out of 3, which one is best ??
Scientists believe heliopause is the end of solar system.
Here the charged particles emitted by Sun become too weak.
Plasma inside the heliopause is of solar origin and plasma outside it is of interstellar origin.
