Many of them would dye their hair blonde, as it was viewed as the best color. They would even dye their beards! Not only that, but Vikings had combs, tweezers, and ear spoons to clean out their ears. They even bathed four times as much as most other people from their time. #Vikings #fastfacts #vikingfacts #vikingstyle #teacherlife #historyteacher #iteach #historyfacts

1957, the Soviet Union sent out the world’s first satellite, Sputnik, into orbit around the Earth. A month later, they sent out a second satellite, the creatively named Sputnik II. On board was a dog named Laika. These events are what inspired the United States to found NASA and launch their own first satellite, the Explorer I, in 1958. #dogfacts #nasafacts #nasa #spacefacts #iteachhistory #historyteacher #historyfacts
