It can be easy to fall into the trap of dismissing the effect popular culture has on our perceptions of the world. We’re each intelligent, reasoning individuals that can appreciate the differences between reality and the fantasy we see on our screens – so it seems almost offensive, at first glance, to insinuate that someone […]
Earlier this month, the world reflected on the 72nd anniversary of the end of World War II in Europe — when Hitler’s Nazi army finally surrendered on what is now known as “Victor in Europe Day.” Hitler’s engineers secretly developed some of the most ambitious projects and rapidly produced sophisticated technology decades before its time.
