What living beings are the oldest on Earth?

In the early 1990s, American oceanologists discovered huge sea sponges on the ocean floor off the coast of Antarctica.

For 10 years, biologists regularly measured them. It turned out that at the growth rate that these sponges showed, they could reach their size in 10 thousand years.

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 ... >>

Twin solar system discovered 05.08.2012

Around the star Kepler-30, surveyed by the Kepler space telescope in January of this year and located 10 thousand light years from the Sun, astronomers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have discovered a system of three planets that behave exactly like the planets of the solar system - their orbits are in the same plane and they all move in the same direction, in accordance with the direction of rotation of the star itself.

This discovery validates the leading theory of planetary formation, according to which planets form inside a disk of gas and dust orbiting a newborn star. The researchers, however, add that they hope to subsequently detect deviations from this rule caused by the gravitational interaction of the planets.

All three worlds that make up this planetary system - Kepler-30b, Kepler-30c and Kepler-30d - are much larger than the Earth, and two of them are more massive than Jupiter. One of them, weighing four Earths, makes a revolution around the star in 29 days; the larger planets have a year of 60 and 143 days, respectively. Astronomers registered the rotation of a star due to a large spot that appeared on it, similar to those that appear on the Sun. From the motion of this spot, they calculated the period and direction of its rotation, which coincided with the direction of motion of the planets.

The rule of orbital consistency of the planets is not always fulfilled. "Hot Jupiters" are known, moving obliquely to the plane of rotation of the star, and sometimes even in the opposite direction (the so-called retrograde orbits). Planets were found with almost the same and even the same number of planets as the Sun, but they did not show such organization in their movement around the star.

This behavior of the planets is associated with the same dynamic gravitational interaction of large bodies that break the idyll of harmonious movement in a row. However, scientists believe that such deviations accumulate over time, and initially all the planets move strictly inside the accretion disk and, together with it, revolve around their star.

Despite the fact that this is the first planetary system similar in order to the Sun, scientists argue that there are a lot of such systems in the Galaxy. According to them, they have about ten such planetary systems in mind, and it just takes time to study them. Astronomers are confident that many more such systems will be discovered over time.
