From French déjà vu (déjà vu) can be literally translated as "already seen". Déjà vu describes the feeling that, surely, at least once in life everyone experiences: the person suddenly seems that once he was in a similar situation in the past. Scientists for centuries trying to explain what causes the feeling of deja vu and why.

And, it seems, a team of researchers from St. Andrews University have managed to answer this question using a brain scan. Apparently, deja vu is a sign that the brain "checks for the memories".
