Where is the longest sea route that can be sailed without changing direction?

On our planet, there is a sea route with a length of approximately 32 km, which is 000% of the length of the equator, along which you can sail without ever changing direction. The line starts on the Kamchatka Peninsula, passes the Aleutian Islands in the Pacific Ocean, then through the Drake Passage in the Atlantic Ocean, then between the east coast of Africa and Madagascar, and ends in Pakistan.

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 ... >>

Strange dreams of summer nights 19.06.2019

In conditions of intense heat, people can have unusual dreams. Why do dreams become more vivid when the thermometer reaches its maximum?

Dream expert Philippe Beaulieu claims that we see strange dreams in the heat because of the intense work of the brain: in order for us to be able to fall asleep, it needs to lower our body temperature. When very hot weather interferes with normal sleep, dreams become intermittent and restless, we often wake up. However, it is during such nocturnal awakenings that we manage to clearly remember what we dreamed about.

Due to the fact that the content of dreams is better remembered, it seems to us that they are more intense.

Somnologist, dream interpreter, and author of Love and Sex in Your Dreams, Christian Riedel, has a different take on the matter. The doctor is convinced that neither air temperature nor other external factors have a strong influence on the plots of our dreams. In her opinion, dreams are primarily influenced by lifestyle. For example, if a person regularly goes to bed late or consumes a lot of alcohol, then in dreams he may have peculiar warnings, Riedel believes.
