Eight minutes of anger | New Scientist Weekly podcast 248
Last year marked the hottest on record, shattering previous temperature benchmarks across both land and sea. The rapid escalation - seemingly at odds with the expected cooling after coming out of a La Niña cycle - has prompted scientists to question if climate change is accelerating beyond our models' predictions.
Just eight minutes of anger can significantly impair blood vessel function and potentially increase the risk of a heart attack. A study has looked into the physiological mechanisms of how intense emotions can affect cardiovascular health.
GPS jamming continues to increase in European airspace, a concerning trend that has intensified since Russia's 2022 invasion of Ukraine. Now, attacks in Estonia have prompted one airline to completely abandon flights to the city of Tartu. We discuss the implications for civilian and military aviation and the potential need for alternative navigation technologies.
Birds do it, bees do it and so do many species of fly - it’s pollination. In fact, migrating flies play an even bigger role in pollination than we thought. These tiny travelers contribute to ecological diversity and resilience by transporting pollen over vast distances.
Plus: A newly discovered sensory organ in praying mantises, used specifically for tasting leaves; the possibility of carbon negative cement; and just how thick is the boundary between air and water?
Hosts Christie Taylor and Timothy Revell discuss with guests Madeline Cuff, Clare Wilson, Jeremy Hsu, and Michael Le Page.To read more about these stories, visit newscientist.com.

Ball-balancing robot could assist wheelchair users
zhlédnutí 748Před 2 hodinami
A human-size robot balancing on a ball that acts as a spherical wheel can push wheelchairs as smoothly as a human assistant - and may carry out this caregiving task better than many humanoid robot helpers that walk on two legs. The so-called ballbot was first developed by researchers at Carnegie Mellon University in Pennsylvania in 2004. In its latest form, it has the capability to manoeuvre a ...
Zebras bob their heads at each other to signal cooperation
zhlédnutí 614Před 2 hodinami
Zebras bob their heads to attract attention and initiate social interactions such as grooming or moving together. This may be one of the few documented examples of signals that animals use to coordinate their behaviour. The capacity for multiple animals to focus on shared goals or objects in their environment, known as joint attention, is key to cooperation in humans, but it has rarely been inv...
From Jurassic Park to The Martian: Five science fiction films that get botany (mostly) wrong
zhlédnutí 1,5KPřed 9 hodinami
Science fiction films are a firm favourite for many. And whilst the genre specialises in speculative ideas, there is still a much-needed place for factual accuracy. Often, however, scientific detail falls by the wayside in big production films. Why let facts get the way of a good story, eh? Sadly for some, these glaring errors can be a distracting plot hole too far. In this episode, botanist Ja...

A neverending solar eclipse | Dead Planets Society

Did you miss out on the recent total eclipse? Never fear, we’ve got a solution. We bring you the constant solar eclipse. Chelsea Whyte and Leah Crane have decided not to destroy the Sun this time. Instead, they just want to block it from view at all times. But it’s all in the name of good - so everyone gets to experience the same “primal fear” Leah did when she first saw an eclipse. What starts...
AI-driven race cars test limits of autonomous driverless technology

Last weekend at the Yas Marina circuit in Abu Dhabi, UAE, the Abu Dhabi Autonomous Racing League competition took place. While each Dallara super formula car looked like an ordinary racing vehicle, there was one notable difference: they were completely driverless, guided instead by autonomous artificial intelligence software developed by eight university-affiliated teams. A suite of sensors was...
Octopus inspires new suction mechanism for robots

A new robotic suction cup which can grasp rough, curved and heavy stone, has been developed by scientists at the University of Bristol. The team, based at Bristol Robotics Laboratory, studied the structures of octopus biological suckers, which have superb adaptive suction abilities enabling them to anchor to rock. In their findings, published in the journal PNAS today, the researchers show how ...

What does India’s election season mean for climate change? Last year India overtook the European Union as the third largest annual emitter of greenhouse gases. And as voters head to the polls in the middle of an intense heat wave, it’s critical whichever party wins continues to push towards the goal of net zero emissions by 2070. But as the country continues to invest in expanding coal power, i...

Claudia de Rham: The search for quantum gravity
Beautiful work, but what are we going to do about aging paint that cracks, separates, lifts off substrate, and then turns to air born dust? Same with both the Mona Lisas....38 layers of paint thick, AND darkening, like the black Virgin Mary in Poland, that Saint Luke the Apostle to Christ, painted of His Blessed Mother, Saint Mary. All the candle burning over 2,000 years has browned it beyond repair. Paints and varnishes age, and they darken severely with every exposure of light, smoke, people, humidity, skin oils, breezes, movement, etc Eventually, they cannot be cleaned, restored, touched, lightened, or anything.
Does it have its original sound/song?
I imagine he left some skin cells, too.
They soo smart. Some body know exactly what leafs that he eats where? / Sweden!
Looks like a darker toned Marjorie Taylor Green.😂
ISHMAEL AND YAKUB WERE HOMOSEXUAL SCIENTISTS ANCESTORS THAT CREATED CAUCASIAN PEOPLE AND HOMO SAPIEN AFRICAN BLACK PEOPLE USING THEIR IBRIDA EXPERIMENTS INVOLVING RHESUS MONKEYS AND GORILLAS.. HOMOPHOBIC IS A MADE UP WORD.. HOMOSEXUALITY IS ABOMINATION ON THIS HOLY TURTLE ISLAND
Life sized hair troll!😅
Ever thought that that is a really old woman and not a Neanderthals. If people live a long time their bone structure is getting thicker. Neanderthals never existed!!!!

So in other words, I should unsubscribe from all the police-corruption channels because those videos always cause me 10-30 minutes of unmitigated _rage,_ seeing all the harm cops do. 😒 Forsooth, there have been several times when I got so worked up by the utter _crimes_ cops committed that I could feel my heart beating out of my chest and had to just stop watching the video before I had a heart-attack. Cops are so harmful, even just KNOWING what they do can cause harm; remote victims. 😠
She is not a neanderthal, she is an antideluvian woman who lived from r hundreds of years who's eye brow ridge grew out as well as showing extensive aging characteristics. Stop lying to the people of the world just because you are fools!
Noooo ! There are 100% 汉族!
Scarlett Johansson was in a film that covered this painting. It was very good, and she was very good in it
Not black enough. FACT!

Cared for there dead? You mean buried to prevent the attraction of predators and scavengers
Fantastic. Well done...
That's a man's skull. Not a woman's.
sounds like a slowed down version of a abyssal copepod from the mystery flesh pit.💀
This is like when some idiot i know insists their shit-eater is saying their name or "hello" or "goodnight".

Uh oh that hair just devalued it for a few million

The reason why he had potatoes instead of seeds is that they didn't intend to stay there. It was supposed to be a short mission and the shrink wrapped potatoes were not pre-cooked. If they were, you could see the skins fall off them. They were raw vacuum sealed potatoes, there for a special occasion. Thanksgiving I think. They were intended to be cooked on-site, so there should be no problem with using them as seeds.
You look like her sister
We all have between 2% to 4% Neanderthal in our DNA, but a very famous person, that you all know has 27%
LOL, scientists are so dumb. They are constantly trying to make up transitional species to desperately grip onto the absurd idea of macro evolution. That just a person. It's some different species
the super villains watching this: *takes notes*
Zebras are bastards.
looks more like flies/head shaking imho.
Useless bot when all of it can be integrated within the wheelchair itself.
Who else thought she was alive?
And the race was an absolute success. very happy with the results 👍
Great. When you find out you're disabled, then to add insult to injury Dusty Bin from 3,2,1 pushes you around
I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed these 2 look similar. How weird the echos of history...
I'm speechless 😮
I loved Dr. Daniel Dennett, very sad to hear about his passing, I've would have loved to meet him, he was my absolute favorite, an intellectual giant, a legend, true sage, heard he was also very kind gentle person, huge loss to civilization, I will watch tons of his lectures in the next few weeks in his memory, I made a playlist of his lectures and interviews for myself to work through, listening to Dr Dennett lectures would be my idea of Heaven 5:02
This won't be the future of racing, however it will definitely be interesting to see the progress of this. To everyone saying that this isn't interesting and that it will never replace real racing, it won't, but it's interesting that something like this is even possible. For everyone hating, grow up and realize that this will never replace racing, but instead it's an experiment pushing boundaries and limits.
Don't talk shit. You can deliberately put someone in the ground, to stop .. smells, spread of disease, attracting large predators etc etc
Why do they make them so old looking?
