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, ... >>

statins for depression 29.05.2022

Statins are prescribed for those who have high levels of "bad" cholesterol, that is, low-density lipoproteins, which increase the risk of atherosclerosis. Statins have a number of side effects, but sometimes unexpected advantages are also found: two years ago we wrote that they suppress COVID-19, and just two or three months ago we said that statins prevent certain malignant tumors from metastasizing.

Oxford researchers have discovered another unreported bonus that statins may have - they protect against depression to some extent. The authors of the work studied the psychological state of more than two thousand people for almost a year. They assessed their memory and emotional background, checked how they react to rewards and how well they recognize emotions on other people's faces. At the same time, the majority of study participants did not take any drugs, 4% took only statins, another 6% - drugs for high blood pressure, and another 5% - both statins and drugs for pressure together.

One of the signs of depression is an internal bias in negative emotions; for example, in the faces of people, a person in a near-depressive state tends to see fear or anger. It turned out that statins suppress negative emotional mood: those who took statins were less willing to see fear and anger on their faces, preferring to attribute some positive emotions to the same faces. Those who took drugs for pressure looked at the world (more precisely, at other people's photos) more gloomily.

Researchers believe that anti-inflammatory mechanisms may be at work here: by lowering cholesterol levels, statins indirectly calm inflammation. And the background sluggish inflammation, as we have repeatedly said, can increase the risk of neuropsychiatric disorders, including depression.
