HOW A MAN FELL FROM THE SPACE?   Neil Armstrong Buzz Aldrin Chris Hadfield we all know these heroes of space exploration but like anything space exploration has its own forgotten unsung heroes and the best example of this is one fl adam a Komarov from the soviet union the year was 1967in the soviet union it was approaching the 50th anniversary of the Union and the government demanded something big from their space program the Soviet space program was trying to battle NASA when it came to the Cold War but because of the country's 50th anniversary the government wanted them to do something special the then leader Brezhnev decided he wanted to have two Soviet spacecraft rendezvous in space he wanted these two Soviet space vehicles to launch into outer space they would then dock together and allow the cosmonauts to move between ships this mission would be known as Sawyer'sthe first ship would be known as so yes one in the second so yes -  it was decided that Vladimir Komarov a cosm

  10 FORBIDDEN PLACES ON THE EARTH?  The world is your oyster and you can travel pretty much anywhere right well not exactly there are some forbidden places on earth which you cannot go to if you did travel into any of these places you would put your freedom health and even life at risk so let's take a look at these amazing yet scary places I dare you to visit doomsday vault Norway when we think of a doomsday world we imagine politicians and billionaires hiding out after a nuclear blast but there's no living people allowed in the Svalbard global seed vault if there was ever a nuclear explosion on earth then many seeds would be wiped out this could mean that certain plants and foods would never grow again causing massive issues. That's why in 2008 the global seed vault was officially opened it's said to be one of the most guarded and secure places on earth inside is over four hundred thousand types of seeds ninety thousand of which are food crops the reason why it's

  WHAT IS THE ANGIOSPERM GAP?   More than 90% of the plants on Earth are angiosperms, flowering plants whose seeds are enclosed inside the fruit. And it is everywhere -- but exactly how and when these plants came to be so ubiquitous is one of the most stubborn questions in science. Back in the 1800s, Charles Darwin himself called it an “abominable mystery”. And despite nearly a century and a half of working on it, the origins of flowering plants are still a subject of debate. The basic question is simple: When did flowering plants evolve? Our two best sources of data are the fossil record and DNA evidence.  And they… provide two totally different answers. See, the oldest definite flowering plants in the fossil record are from the Early Cretaceous Period, around 130 million years ago. But scientists can also use genetic information to calculate a date in what’s called a molecular clock estimate. To do so, they compare genetic diversity among living plants and then use the estimated rate

HOW DOES THE BOX SHAPED FISHES SWIM? When you imagine a fish, you probably imagine something smooth and sleek that slices right through the water. But there is a handful of fish that just aren't sleek at all… like the boxfish, which is essentially a colorful box with fins. It might seem like exactly the worst shape for fish… but it actually comes with some surprising perks. In general, fish need to be able to cut through the water without a lot of resistance, or drag. That way, they don’t waste too much energy swimming, and they’re quick enough to escape predators. But the boxfish has a rigid skeleton in the shape of a box, which, as you might expect, creates a lot of drag. The odd thing is, despite their shape, boxfish aren’t these lumbering, awkward things. They’re actually pretty agile and good at dodging predators. And that caught scientists’ attention.  In 2002, a group of researchers used 3D-printed models of these fish to explore how water flowed around them. At first, they

THE LOST CITY AND THE ORIGIN OF LIFE?    In 2000, scientists discovered an event unlike any other—one not quite so deep down with white chimneys that have been around at least ten times longer than any other vent field. And some of them think it may help us understand how all life began. The researchers on the Alvin submersible weren’t looking for a massive hydrothermal vent field when they were exploring a mountainous region of the Atlantic seafloor about 750 to 900 meters below the waves. They basically stumbled upon it: a sprawling field of huge, white spires and chimneys up to sixty meters tall.  Because of these dramatic structures, and the site’s location on the Atlantis Massif, the researchers named the site the Lost CityHydrothermal Field. And it turns out Lost City is really different from other hydrothermal vents. Most vents are what scientists call “black smokers”, and they form where there’s lots of volcanic activity. In those cases, water in the Earth’s crust gets superhea

INSTANT FISH: JUST ADD WATER- SALAMANDER  If you ever happen to find yourself in southwestern Australia, pour some water on a seemingly-empty spot of dirt. You just might wind up with a pool full of teeny fish! Salamanderfish are tiny, long-bodied fish that are found only in the southwest corner of Western Australia in ephemeral pools that form on peat flats. The water they live in disappears in the summer months, from January to late May. But that’s no problem for these amazing little fish, as a pair of ichthyologists documented in a paper published in 1989. They were monitoring 22 pools to gain insights into salamanderfish since there was very little known about this species.  So, they were watching as the water levels got lower and lower until finally, the pools dried up entirely. But… there were no fish bodies left behind on the dry sand. Which was a bit perplexing. Then, the researchers dug down. And there was the fish — alive — just hanging out in the sand on the water table. Tha

  WHY HERPES IS THE MOST TALENTED VIRUS EVER?  Getting sick is never pleasant, but at least many viral infections are one-and-done. We’ve talked before about how the measles virus is the poster child for lifelong immunity. Once your immune system recognizes it, it never forgets, and it will not hesitate to kick it to the curb if it shows its face again. Unfortunately, however, there’s also a poster child for lifelong infection: herpesviruses. These viruses are so good at sneaking past our immune system and hiding out in our cells that once we have‘em, we… have ‘em. Because herpesviruses have some unique features that make them master squatters. Which seems kind of embarrassing for our immune systems — but actually, we may have evolved to coexist . There are eight members of the herpes virus family that routinely infect humans. These include herpes simplex virus 1 and 2, which cause oral and genital herpes, as well as the viruses that cause chickenpox and shingles, and most — but not al

  WHERE ON THE EARTH DO YOU WEIGH THE LESS? Something’s mass–a kilogram of feathers, a kilogram of steel, or you and me–is constant everywhere in the universe, because mass is a measure of how much stuff there is, all your atoms added together. But weight isn’t a constant. It’s the force gravity applies to all that stuff at one specific spot, so depending on the gravity where you are, your weight will be different. This makes sense if we think about being, say, on the moon, where your moon weight is about sixteen and a half percent your Earthweight because gravity is about sixteen and a half percent of what it is on Earth.  But the same thing is also true here. Things don’t weigh the same everywhere on earth. So, a question: Where on Earth would you, or feathers, or steel, weigh the most? And for that matter, where would you weigh the least? What makes this question so confusing is there more than one definition of “weight”. To most of us, weight’s just the numbers you see when you ste

  WHY DO OLDER PEOPLES SLEEPS LESS?  It is a well-known stereotype that older people sleep less than younger folks, often rising at like, 4 AM. But even though it’s a stereotype, there does seem to be some truth to this. Like, surveys have found that many seniors wake multiple times in the wee hours before finally rising at the crack of dawn. This doesn’t happen because their bodies need less shut-eye, though; older adults need just as much sleep as younger ones. And although sleep can be disrupted by many things associated with aging, like pain or medication, that’s not the full story, either.  Instead, studies suggest there are some fascinating and sometimes bizarre reasons older adults may wake up with the chickens. Including this stuff called brain sand. Which is even weirder than brain sand sounds. The general explanation here is that something changes with your circadian rhythm as you get older. That’s the roughly 24-hour cycle your body is on, which affects everything from when

  WHY DO THESE BEES STAB PLANTS?  We know a lot about the way bees and other pollinators impact our lives. We have to because without them we Wouldnt have things like almonds and apples and blueberries. Yet there is something we have completely missed about the humble bumblebee. And it might give them a leg up in weathering climate change. In a paper published in 2020 in the journal Science, researchers reported a previously undocumented behavior in bumblebees.  In tough times, when the colony is hungry, bumblebees will use their mouthparts to deliberately damage the leaves of plants that haven't yet flowered which seems like a bad idea when you need those plants for food. The researchers observed the bees and concluded that they’re not consuming pieces of the plant or taking them back to their colonies. Instead, they appear to be damaging leaves because it induces the plant to flower sooner. The researchers found that bee-damaged plants flower up to thirty days earlier than plants

    DO TREES TALK? This network trades resources transmits information, and can even go to war. I know what you’re thinking, and no, this isn't the worldwide web. It’s something much older. 450 million years older. And it makes life on Earth as we know it possible. This is the wood wide web. The most important social network on Earth. Walk into a forest and just listen. You can’t hear it, but the forest is communicating. If you’ve never noticed this before its because all of this is happening below your feet.  The wood wide web is a network created by fungi. They’re called mycorrhizal fungi and these fungi live in and around the roots of trees and other plants. Fungi are a huge domain on the tree of life, and as you’ve probably noticed by now, nobody knows how you’re supposed to actually say it. I’m going with a “fun guy” because that's what I am. Fungi include molds, mushrooms, and yeasts, and as a whole, they are essential to making all of Earth’s organic garbage and dead stu

  NO EARS NO PROBLEM! FROG CAN HEAR WITH THEIR LUNGS?   :- Frogs often have a lot to say. Just ask the residents of the Big Island of Hawai'i, who get serenaded by tiny, invasive coqui frogs every night. But if you’ve ever looked at a frog’s head, you might have noticed that they don’t have external ears. So it might seem weird that they’re able to hear those calls. Well, it turns out they rely on other ways of getting information about sounds to their brains. Including... listening with their lungs. Amphibian hearing works a lot like human hearing, except instead of eardrums buried in an ear canal, most frogs have a tympanic membrane right on their heads. When a sound wave hits that membrane, it starts to vibrate.  And the vibrations starts a chain reaction that ends with fluid vibrating against special cells in the frogs’ inner ear. When these cells move, they send out an electrical signal that travels to the auditory center of the brain. Low-frequency vibrations stimulate the ce

  THE SCIENCE OF TEAR GAS? :- Tear gas has become a go-to way for police departments worldwide to try and break up a crowd. But there’s a lot of confusion out there about these chemicals—what they are, what they do, and whether they can cause long-term harm. So we’re going to talk about the science of tear gas. And look, we’re not here to tell you how you should feel about these chemicals or their use in any context. But we can explain what is known about them—and what isn’t. Tear gases belong to a category of compounds called lacrimators. They’re chemicals that irritate skin and mucous membranes and cause symptoms like pain, coughing, an uncontrollable shutting of the eyelids, and, well, tears. Hence the name.  Though, tear gases aren’t actually gases. Instead, they’re liquids or solids that are turned into a spray or cloud with solvents or smoking reactions. Their effects can incapacitate people or just be so overwhelmingly awful debilitating that people run away. Though they don’t t
