St. Thomas in Thrissur, Kerala

  When St. Thomas the Apostle visited Kerala (in India), he performed many miracles for the people living there. One popular example is Chatukulam ("The Lake of the Whip" or so) which was created after St. Thomas used a whip on some barren land to turn it into a river. Upon speaking to people, I have also uncovered that the other miracle that was seen by the people was how St. Thomas made water float in thin air.

  During the Cold War, the U.S designed an aircraft carrier but there was a twist to it- the aircraft carrier would be an even larger aircraft AND it would be nuclear- powered too. This design would not be built, but it would inspire the designs of some fictional aircrafts.  This large aircraft was designed to carry many fighter jets, as they say.
