Random interesting fact from the Great Encyclopedia:

Is a chimpanzee a monkey?

All monkeys can be divided into 4 main groups: lemurs, Old World monkeys (baboons, etc.), New World monkeys (spider monkey, howler monkeys, etc.) and great apes (gorilla, orangutan, chimpanzee and gibbon) . Of the three great apes: the gorilla, the orangutan, and the chimpanzee, the chimpanzee is the most human-like. This monkey is smaller than both the gorilla and the orangutan, but more "intelligent" than them. The body of a chimpanzee, devoid of a tail, is very similar to a human.

True, chimpanzees have 13 pairs of ribs, while humans usually have 12 pairs. The dark skin of the chimpanzee is covered everywhere except on the palms and face with coarse black hair. Chimpanzees live in small groups in the forests of Central Africa, east of Sierra Leone to Lake Victoria. They are very easy to tame and take root well in the zoo. Sometimes they become so attached to their favorite caretakers that they even cry and call them when they are sick!

Chimpanzee scholars claim that there are at least 20 different sounds that can be classified as "chimpanzee language". On the ground, chimpanzees move on four legs, leaning on the ground with their knuckles to support the body. A male chimpanzee can weigh up to 70 kg and reach a height of 1,5 m, although most chimpanzees are slightly smaller.

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 ... >>

Luna's original application 15.06.2018

Students from Dnipro proposed to use the Earth's natural satellite, the Moon, as a screen for the projector. The goal of the project is to popularize space, make a profit through advertising, and expand the scope of information technology.

The project was presented at the Second Student Space Tournament Star Track, where students presented their developments in the field of space research.

10 teams took part in the tournament, which included students and graduates of the Faculty of Physics and Technology of the Dnipro National University named after Oles Honchar, the National Technical University "Dnipro Polytechnic", the Dnipropetrovsk National University of Railway Transport, and the College of Rocket and Space Engineering DNU.

In addition to the "lunar projector", student developments of satellites and rocket complexes, including those with a returnable material part, for meteorological observations and studies of the lower layers of the atmosphere were presented at the competition. Students hope to bring many developments to working samples and mass production.
