Origin:

From the vaudeville "Wedding" (1890) by Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860-1904). The telegraph operator invited to the celebration begins to talk about the advantages of electric lighting, but the bride's father cuts him off, noting that this is "only a scam", and lighting needs "natural, not mental" fire. He is supported by the bride and groom, who summarizes: "They want to show their education and always talk about the incomprehensible."

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue.

The cosmic wind stretched over 228 light-years 11.12.2018

Chilean astronomers have discovered a wind stretching from a quasar at a distance of 228 light years.

Quasars are one of the brightest objects in the universe. Scientists believe that in the center of the quasar is a particularly massive black hole, the matter around which produces particularly intense radiation.

It is believed that the quasar is the center of the nascent galaxy, and the wind emanating from it affects the formation of the galaxy in the future. If the gas is not carried too far, it will be pulled back by the massive black hole, and its material will become the basis for the formation of future stars. If the wind is powerful enough, it can carry matter far enough and the galaxy will perish for lack of building material.

Scientists have long tried to understand how far the plasma-gas wind can stretch from quasars and how much energy it can carry. This time, the scientists received very conflicting information, the extent of the wind turned out to be very large, and the transferred energy was much lower than expected.
