Who helped Shishkin draw bears in the painting Morning in a pine forest?

The picture "Morning in a Pine Forest" Ivan Shishkin was painted not alone, but in collaboration with Konstantin Savitsky (who painted bears). However, the collector Pavel Tretyakov erased Savitsky's signature after acquiring the painting, so now only Shishkin is indicated as the author of the painting.

Authors: Jimmy Wales, Larry Sanger

How long ago did they start parodying the classics?

The oldest known parody of a classic work is "The War of Mice and Frogs" ("Batrachomyomachia"). This Greek comic epic, written in hexameter (possibly in the XNUMXth-XNUMXrd centuries BC), is a parody of Homer's Iliad.

The comedy of the work lies in the fact that its characters - mice and frogs - wage war among themselves like heroes, and even express themselves in the language of a heroic epic.

Solidification of bulk substances 30.04.2024

There are quite a few mysteries in the world of science, and one of them is the strange behavior of bulk materials. They may behave like a solid but suddenly turn into a flowing liquid. This phenomenon has attracted the attention of many researchers, and we may finally be getting closer to solving this mystery. Imagine sand in an hourglass. It usually flows freely, but in some cases its particles begin to get stuck, turning from a liquid to a solid. This transition has important implications for many areas, from drug production to construction. Researchers from the USA have attempted to describe this phenomenon and come closer to understanding it. In the study, the scientists conducted simulations in the laboratory using data from bags of polystyrene beads. They found that the vibrations within these sets had specific frequencies, meaning that only certain types of vibrations could travel through the material. Received ... >>

Implanted brain stimulator 30.04.2024

In recent years, scientific research in the field of neurotechnology has made enormous progress, opening new horizons for the treatment of various psychiatric and neurological disorders. One of the significant achievements was the creation of the smallest implanted brain stimulator, presented by a laboratory at Rice University. Called Digitally Programmable Over-brain Therapeutic (DOT), this innovative device promises to revolutionize treatments by providing more autonomy and accessibility to patients. The implant, developed in collaboration with Motif Neurotech and clinicians, introduces an innovative approach to brain stimulation. It is powered through an external transmitter using magnetoelectric power transfer, eliminating the need for wires and large batteries typical of existing technologies. This makes the procedure less invasive and provides more opportunities to improve patients' quality of life. In addition to its use in treatment, resist ... >>

The perception of time depends on what one is looking at 29.04.2024

Research in the field of the psychology of time continues to surprise us with its results. Recent discoveries by scientists from George Mason University (USA) turned out to be quite remarkable: they discovered that what we look at can greatly influence our sense of time. During the experiment, 52 participants took a series of tests, estimating the duration of viewing various images. The results were surprising: the size and detail of the images had a significant impact on the perception of time. Larger, less cluttered scenes created the illusion of time slowing down, while smaller, busier images gave the feeling of time speeding up. Researchers suggest that visual clutter or detail overload can make it difficult to perceive the world around us, which in turn can lead to faster perception of time. Thus, it was shown that our perception of time is closely related to what we look at. Larger and smaller ... >>

NASA tested a space nuclear reactor 16.05.2018

NASA, with the support of the U.S. National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), tested the Kilopower power plant, which is designed to provide energy to future American bases on the moon and Mars, as well as spacecraft for missions to the farthest corners of the solar system.

Of course, spacecraft usually use solar panels as a source of energy, but here's the problem: in the case of distance from the Sun, energy may not be enough. Alternatively, thermoelectric generators can be used, but their power is relatively small - on the order of several hundred watts, while most of these generators operate on plutonium-238.

An ideal option would be nuclear power plants, which would be useful to provide energy to promising US bases on the moon, which remain without the Sun during the 14-day lunar night. Therefore, at the end of last year, NASA launched the Kilopower project, within which it was planned to develop simple and reliable nuclear installations for space use.

Such reactors use uranium-235 as fuel, and their power can range from one to ten kilowatts. Each nuclear installation has a hollow fuel cylinder, inside of which there is a moderator rod, and outside - a neutron reflector made of beryllium oxide. Instead of thermoelectric converters, a sodium-cooled Stirling engine was used.

The Kilopower facility has been successfully tested at the Nevada test site, and the reactor has proven to be operational, stable and safe under a wide variety of conditions. Several phases of testing were carried out, in which the system went through a complete cycle from start-up, power up, operation, power reduction and shutdown in 28 hours. The space reactor coped with all the problems and never failed the testers.
