1949

Popular Mechanics was founded in Chicago by Henry Haven
Windsor, with the first issue dated January 11, 1902. His
concept was that it would explain "the way the world works"
in plain language, with photos and illustrations to aid
comprehension.

For decades, its tagline was "Written so you can understand
it." The magazine was a weekly until September 1902, when
it became a monthly. The Popular Mechanics Company was
owned by the Windsor family and printed in Chicago until the
Hearst Corporation purchased the magazine in 1958. In 1962,
the editorial offices moved to New York City.

On December 13, 1862, Confederate General Robert E. Lee’s Army
of Northern Virginia repulsed a series of attacks by General
Ambrose Burnside’s Army of the Potomac at Fredericksburg,
Virginia.

The defeat was one of the most decisive loses for the Union army,
and it dealt a serious blow to Northern morale in the winter of 1862-
63.

FIRST NOBEL PRIZES AWARDED ON THIS DAY

Nobel Prize - Kids | Britannica Kids | Homework Help

The first Nobel Prizes were awarded in Stockholm, Sweden, in
the fields of physics, chemistry, medicine, literature and peace
on December 10, 1901.

The ceremony came on the fifth anniversary of the death of
Alfred Nobel, the Swedish inventor of dynamite and other high explosives. In his will, Nobel directed that the bulk of his vast
fortune be placed in a fund in which the interest would be
“annually distributed in the form of prizes to those who, during
the preceding year, shall have conferred the greatest benefit on mankind.”

Although Nobel offered no public reason for his creation of the
prizes, it is widely believed that he did so out of moral regret
over the increasingly lethal uses of his inventions in war.
