2. Chlorine was first added to pools in the 1940s because it could kill polio.

3. The temperature on the moon at the Apollo 11 landing site was 200 degrees Fahrenheit.

4. The USDA has 1.5 BILLION pounds of cheese stashed in caves in Missouri. This process started about 75 years ago as part of a plan to stabilize dairy prices in the country. But now, it’s mainly for use in food assistance programs.
