Trivia :-

Hello

Wind is a current of air that moves more or less horizontally, whereas a draft moves vertically, either up or down. So, it is technically incorrect to say a draft of air is flowing through a window.

Trivia :-

Hello

A meteor is a particle or a group of particles that enters earth's atmosphere at blazing speeds of around 150,000 miles per hour and is vaporized due to friction, leaving behind a trail of bright light. Any meteor that survives this journey and actually hits the earth is called a meteorite.

Trivia :-

Hello

A dock is not, as most people believe, something to walk on. A dock is a body of water next to a wharf or a pier. A wharf is a structure, built parallel to the shore, to which boats can be anchored. A pier is a structure that runs into the water, away from the shore, used for strolling or for anchoring boats.

Trivia :-

Hello

Roughly 3% of Earth's water is fresh and only 6% of this fresh water is in the form of a liquid, with the rest in polar ice-caps. And then, 98% of this fresh liquid water is underground. So, only about .0036% of all Earth's water is available for humans to drink.
