Here’s 5 interesting things you can talk about this week with your family, friends and co-workers!

1: The current Musquash Head Lighthouse was built in 1959, and was automated in the 1980s. A lighthouse has stood on the grounds though, since 1879.

2: Dogs can detect frequencies up to 65,000 Hz, while humans max out around 20,000 Hz.

3: While synonymous with the Netherlands, tulips are native to the Tian Shan mountains of Central Asia and were first cultivated by the Turks by 1000 A.D..

4: NBC unveiled the newest version of its peacock logo, which is still used to this day, 40 years ago this week.

5: Your index finger is controlled by muscles in the hand, not within the finger itself.
