What seafood can cause suffocation while eating them?

Sannakji is a Korean dish made from chopped live octopus seasoned with sesame oil. If served immediately, while the octopus's muscles are still contracting, the pieces on the plate will move. And when eating, you need to be especially careful, because because of this contraction, a piece of octopus can block the air from entering through the throat. Even several lethal cases from suffocation of sannakchi have been recorded.

Energy from space for Starship 08.05.2024

Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

New method for creating powerful batteries 08.05.2024

With the development of technology and the expanding use of electronics, the issue of creating efficient and safe energy sources is becoming increasingly urgent. Researchers at the University of Queensland have unveiled a new approach to creating high-power zinc-based batteries that could change the landscape of the energy industry. One of the main problems with traditional water-based rechargeable batteries was their low voltage, which limited their use in modern devices. But thanks to a new method developed by scientists, this drawback has been successfully overcome. As part of their research, scientists turned to a special organic compound - catechol. It turned out to be an important component that can improve battery stability and increase its efficiency. This approach has led to a significant increase in the voltage of zinc-ion batteries, making them more competitive. According to scientists, such batteries have several advantages. They have b ... >>

Alcohol content of warm beer 07.05.2024

Beer, as one of the most common alcoholic drinks, has its own unique taste, which can change depending on the temperature of consumption. A new study by an international team of scientists has found that beer temperature has a significant impact on the perception of alcoholic taste. The study, led by materials scientist Lei Jiang, found that at different temperatures, ethanol and water molecules form different types of clusters, which affects the perception of alcoholic taste. At low temperatures, more pyramid-like clusters form, which reduces the pungency of the "ethanol" taste and makes the drink taste less alcoholic. On the contrary, as the temperature increases, the clusters become more chain-like, resulting in a more pronounced alcoholic taste. This explains why the taste of some alcoholic drinks, such as baijiu, can change depending on temperature. The data obtained opens up new prospects for beverage manufacturers, ... >>

Volta Zero electric truck 10.09.2020

British-Swedish startup Volta Trucks has unveiled its first model, the Volta Zero, a commercial electric truck designed for deliveries within the city. This is a fairly large (9460x3470x2550) 16-ton model that can hold 16 euro-pallets with a total weight of 8600 kg in a body with a useful volume of 37,7 m3.

The drive is the modular Bosch E-axle solution mounted on the rear axle, which combines the electric motor, gearbox and control electronics in one housing. The characteristics of the electric motor are not announced, only the maximum speed (90 km / h) is known, but it is also limited for greater safety. Depending on the needs of the customer, batteries with a capacity of 160 to 200 kWh can be installed in the floor between the axles of Volta Zero, which will provide a range of 150-200 km. Frankly low indicators of "range" are caused by a solid carrying capacity.

The layout of the cab is very interesting - the driver sits in the center, if desired, two forwarders can accompany him (their seats are slightly behind). Due to the lower seating position than classic trucks and the huge glass area of the cab, the driver gets a 220-degree view, which is extremely important when maneuvering on narrow city streets.

By the end of 2022, the creators of Volta Zero are going to release at least 500 electric trucks, and by 2025 they expect to collect about 5000 copies annually.
