What famous toy was a by-product of development for the needs of the navy?

In 1943, engineer Richard James Thompson was working on a spring-loaded device that would compensate for sea roll for sensitive ship instruments. One day he accidentally pushed a spring off a shelf and saw it first "step" onto the table and then onto the floor and gather itself into a tight position. Deciding that such a spring could be a great toy, he experimented with different grades of steel wire for a year until he found the perfect one. Thompson and his wife set up a business, and stair-walking springs, dubbed "Slinky", gained immense popularity. Later, plastic counterparts with bright colors, known as "rainbows", appeared.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

Girls' brains develop faster 01.03.2023

American scientists have found significant differences in the structure of the brain of boys and girls during their growing up.

To conduct the study, a sample of 8,9 thousand children aged 9-10 years was compiled. Their parents were asked to periodically bring their children for brain scans using an MRI machine.

Scientists were interested in changes in the structure of gray and white matter in the brain, as well as gender differences in these changes. As a result, it was possible to confirm the long-standing hypothesis that the ways of development of the male and female brain are significantly different. In particular, significant differences were recorded in the structure and pace of development of the network of the passive mode of the brain, which plays an important role in the functioning of the brain during inactivity.

As a rule, girls were characterized by a higher density of connections between neurons in this network, as well as an increased density of white matter in the regions of the brain associated with it. According to scientists, this reflects the fact that the brain of girls and girls, on average, matures faster than the nervous system of boys and boys. Scientists have identified similar patterns when comparing the degree of "maturity" of the brain and the level of intellectual development of children.

The discovery of these differences in the nature of brain development in girls and boys explains the existence of age-related differences in the cognitive abilities of schoolchildren and schoolgirls.
