💁🏻♀️ TIL: 👓🌈 #Beijing Institute of #Technology researchers built an add-on layer that lets a pair of eyeglasses show #infrared #light as color, something human #eyes are blind to because each infrared photon is too weak to trigger a single retinal cell.

If your recorded voice has ever made you ask, 'Is that really me?', you're not alone. Here's the science behind one of the most common everyday mysteries. https://english.mathrubhumi.com/lifestyle/why-does-your-voice-sound-so-different-in-recordings-the-science-explained-ktyhb8lv?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #Health #HumanBody #Psychology #Lifestyle

Ever wondered why women's legs and knees align a bit differently than men's? It actually comes down to anatomy and something called the Q-angle (due to a wider pelvis and how the thighbone angles down).
If you want to dive into the actual science behind it, check out this medical study:

💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🦇🧠 A 2021 study found #blind and sighted people can learn click #echolocation in just 10 weeks.
Follow up scans by #Durham University researchers showed structural changes in the #brain’s visual cortex. A separate 2025 study examined how 30 million years of echolocation #evolution shaped dolphin and whale brains.

The other day I noted that the human pelvis, evolutionary, is a mess. It's probably worth expending on that. The human birth canal is relatively very small, and that is a trade-offs related to us walking bipedality as well as pelvic floor stability.

Boobs are kind of weird, evolutionary. No other mammals have enlarged, permanent mammary organs. We're no sure why they evolve, maybe a by-product of other evolutionary adaptations, maybe some selection process. Change in diet seems to also have been a factor.

💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🐻🚀 Scientists are studying how hibernating #animals survive months without food, hoping to replicate the process in #humans for #space travel.
Researchers funded by #NASA and #ESA are testing #brain stimulation techniques like #ultrasound to trigger torpor. The work could make #Mars missions feasible and help treat Parkinson’s and stroke on #Earth.

💁🏻♀️ TIL: 👨🚀🤰 A #space gynecologist examines why human #pregnancy in space remains largely theoretical.
High #radiation and #microgravity pose serious risks to both parent and fetus, while female #biology is historically underrepresented in space #research. With more #Artemis missions approaching, scientists urgently need more #data before #births beyond #Earth can be considered safe.

Did you know your stomach contains hydrochloric acid (HCl)? 🧪
This powerful acid helps break down food and kill harmful microbes, making digestion possible .
The crazy part? Your stomach constantly renews its protective lining so the acid doesn’t digest the stomach itself .

Did you know your body is made up of trillions of biological cells? 🧬🔬
Cells are the basic building blocks of life; they produce energy, carry genetic information, fight infections, and keep your body functioning every second .🤯
From brain cells to blood cells, every part of you depends on these microscopic living systems working together.
