 Random interesting fact from the Great Encyclopedia:

Where do plants that are not capable of photosynthesis get their energy?

Most plants obtain energy through photosynthesis. But there are also mycoheterotrophic plants that do not carry out photosynthesis due to the lack of chlorophyll, but instead parasitize fungi. An example of mycoheterotrophs is the single-flowered podelnik, a completely white plant without leaves. Since it does not need sunlight at all, it can grow freely on the soils of very dense forests and in even darker places.

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. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

Call across the stratosphere 19.09.2002

The American firm Space Data Corporation offered the National Weather Service a mutually beneficial cooperation.

Every day, meteorologists launch 30 balloons with meteorological instruments into the stratosphere, to a height of up to 140 kilometers. If scientists allow cellular communication equipment to be attached to their probes, the company will provide them with an accurate minute-by-minute determination of the coordinates of each ball using a satellite navigation system, which will significantly increase the reliability of forecasts. And residents of sparsely populated and hard-to-reach areas, especially mountainous areas where radio waves are blocked by mountains and gorges, will receive reliable mobile communications. One balloon will serve an area of ​​100 square miles (one tower with a base station - 000-100 square miles).

The company undertakes to supply about 300 balloons with its equipment (the kit will cost about $51) annually, since most often the load of the cylinder is irretrievably lost after the probe bursts in the upper atmosphere. Moreover, the entire payload, including meteorological instruments with a telemetry transmitter, should not exceed 2,7 kilograms, which is considered safe in the event of a ball collision with an aircraft.

If the project is approved by the meteorological service, the first experiments will begin this year.
