Mustekalojen suuri sukukunta

Kuva I

Merillä on näkynyt omituisia merieläimiä aina, kun ihminen on siellä purjehtinut. Ja syvän meren tutkijat sitten ovat löytäneet erilaisia mustekaloj, joiden koko on ollut uskomaton. Kolossikalmari sekä humboldtin kalmari (Kuva I), jonka pyyntilonkerot ovat suhtettoman lyhyet, ovat todella suurikokoisia, ja todella oudon näköisiä eliöitä, joista jälkimnäinen voi kasvaa jopa 14 metrin mittaiseksi.

Kolossikalmarin (Kuva II) voi helposti sekoittaa humboldtin kalmariin, ja jälkimmäisellä niistä on kutenkin pidemmät lonkerot. Ja kolossikalmari kääntää nuo pitkät pyyntilonkeronsa yleensä taakse kun se alkaa uida suuremalla nopeudella. Noiden mustekalojen tunnistaminen on melko vaikeaa, ja kuvissa niitä on merkitty ristiin. Mutta nuo pidemmät lonkerot ovat kuitenkin hyvä tunniste, jolla nuo merieläimet voi erottaa toisistaan. Kuvassa kolme (Kuva III) on sen sijaan "Spagettimustekalana" tunnettu eläin, jonka lonkerot muistuttavat spagettia. Tuo mustekala ilmeisesti on sukua seepioille, koska sillä on niin paljon lonkeroita. Seepiat (Kuva IV)ovat kolmas pääryhmä noille nilviäisille , tai sitten kyseessä voi olla myös jonkinlainen eläinyhdyskunta. Toki nuo seepiat ovat erittäin alkukantaisia mustekaloja.

Joten kyseessä voi olla joku erittäin alkeellinen mustekala tai sitten jonkinlainen medusa.Eli olisiko kyseessä jokin puuttuva rengas mustekalojen ja medusoiden välistä. Mustekalojen esi-isien eli ammoniittien epäillään kehittyneen suoraan medusoista, jotka ovat taas kehittyneet suoraan noista yhdyskuntaeläimistä, joita ovat esimerkiksi portugalin sotalaivan kaltaiset maneettiryhmät. Seepiat ovat siis oikeastaan trias-kauden ammoniittien jälkeläisiä suoraan alenevassa polvessa.

Black holes cause a virtual redshift because gravitation stretches the wavelength near them.

At the beginning of this text is a film about the redshift of black holes. Gravitation stretches light, and that means gravitation fields are pulling waves longer. That thing is called the gravitational redshift. As you can see from the film, the black hole stretches radiation and distorts the redshift. Gravitational redshift, or virtual redshift, means that a black hole might seem to be at a longer distance than it is. The film shows the redshift of the star that orbits a supermassive black hole. But all other black holes interact the same way.  The event horizon is always constant. At that point, the black hole's escaping velocity is the same as the speed of light. So every black hole interacts basically in the same way. And it's possible to apply that model to all black holes irrespective of their size.  Is gravitation the thing that forms dark energy? That thing seems somehow strange. But when photons and other particles are traveling through the ball that forms the visible

The shape of the brain means more than neuro connectivity.

Well, we might say that the brain is in its entirety. Another thing is that all things in the brain have some kind of purpose. The shape of the brain and, especially, the folding of the brain shell are extremely important things. Those folds are expanding the brain's surface areas. And the brain shell has a primary role in the thinking process. The surface area of the brain determines how large the cerebral cortex is. And in a large cerebral cortex, there are a large number of neurons. But as I just wrote, the brain is in its entirety. "Researchers have discovered that the shape of a person’s brain significantly impacts thought, feeling, and behavior, overturning the prevailing emphasis on complex neuronal connectivity. Utilizing MRI scans and the principle of eigenmodes, they found that brain function is closely linked to its geometric properties, much like how the shape of a musical instrument determines its sound, offering new avenues for exploring brain function and diseas

New nanomaterial is 4 times harder than steel. And, at the same time 5 times lighter than steel.

 New nanomaterial is 4 times harder than steel. And, at the same time 5 times lighter than steel.  The new material is the hollow glass fiber with DNA molecules inside that structure. Or as you see from the image. The glass fibers are on both sides of the DNA.  DNA molecule is the thing, that involves the genetic code of the cells. Genetically engineered cells can make DNA, and those molecules can used as the nanomaterial's structures. DNA manipulation makes it possible to create new types of extremely strong materials. And those materials are stronger than steel and lighter than it. DNA molecules can act as nano-size springs.  And in some visions, genetically engineered cyborg cells like cyborg macrophages can make extremely long DNA molecules. And then they can just use those molecules as spears that can pierce wanted cells. Or those cyborg cells can also dumb targeted cells full of the DNA that terminates them immediately.  The DNA and nanotube combinations can also act as DNA-b
