"Ученые получили самый точный снимок человеческой клетки!" пишут в этих самых ваших интернетах.
Но на самом деле это – цифровая иллюстрация, которую нарисовал художник-аниматор Рассел Найтли.
Это не «человеческая» клетка, а обобщенная эукариотическая.
Ну то есть да, запчасти в целом верные, научная подоплёка имеется, можно разглядеть знакомую органеллу, просто это изображение из серии «я надену всё лучшее сразу».Пройдусь по Цитоплазменной,
Сверну на Вакуольную,
И на Митохондрической
Я постою в тени.
Мембранная,
Ворсистая
и Гольджи-Рибосомная
Как будто к эволюции
Ведут меня они!Ученые получили самый точный снимок человеческой клетки!
Но есть нюанс. -
Sim, a chamada da notícia é bizarramente viralatista: "“NASA brasileira” abre cursos online gratuitos com vagas em todo o país com temas que vão de astronomia à foguetes"
Mas, são cursos gratuitos e, espero que bons, sobre assuntos científicos muito legais.

Should science fiction be restricted to scientifically literate people to avoid misleading common people about reality?

I haven’t done anything so far at age 38, but that’s ok, because it took -380,000 years for the universe to become transparent and for light to function properly #popScience #interesting #impermanence #physics #notSure #expertsWanted #whoKnows

I’m currently writing a popular science book about the incredible world of soil - lucky me! I’m writing flat-out at the moment, which is why I’ve not been active on social media.
They say a change is as good as a rest, so I’ve taken a cheeky writing retreat to tackle the next chapter! Gosh I love Kaikōura so much, where else can you see mountains falling into the sea?!

My fellow #caffeine addicts, this is one of my favorite Guardian long read #podcasts. This excellent documentary gives surprising(!) insights into health & historical aspects of the world's favorite legal drug. #Popscience at its best.

Every time a scientific study seems to imply that drinking alcohol might improve some aspect of human health, it's massive media coverage guaranteed. Today's case in point: Red wine against dementia.

Like everyone else, humans co-evolved with other species, from microbes to intestinal worms to large predators, but many of those species are no longer with us in meaningful numbers. #RobDunn looks at the often negative effects of living around a species mix that is so different from those we evolved with: we might not miss being hunted by leopards, yet parts of our biology do. Fascinating #PopScience but a little prone to wandering off topic. #FinishedReading #bookstodon @bookstodon

#FinishedReading Nobel winner #GeorgeSmoot 's story of the search for structure in the cosmic background radiation, with co-author #KeayDavidson . A quite accessible story of the challenges of conducting experiments in increasingly ludicrous and expensive places: high altitude balloons, U-2 spy planes, the South Pole and, of course, outer space, in an attempt to get a clear view of the echo of creation. #Bookstodon #PopScience @bookstodon

@bookstodon #FinishedReading this engaging #popScience look at the (mostly microscopic) life that shares our houses. There are gross parts of course, but this is largely a celebration of the value of living amidst invisible biodiversity, which makes me feel better about my well loved but very far from sterile home! #RobDunn #Bookstodon @bookstodon

Nikt nie lubi „kleszczy”, a takich co przyszły ze wschodu… ZE WSCHODU! :D to już w ogóle. :D
Anyway, fajny film przyrodniczy i ciekawy sposób na zrzucanie robaków z robaków xD Ino nie celem leczenia, a liczenia, choć na pierwszy rzut oka widać, że te słowa mają wiele wspólnego. :D

Atlas Obscura's Dan Nosowitz set out to determine what the fastest language in the world is, and immediately encountered a problem: What does that mean? Number of syllables spoken in a set amount of time? Amount of information conveyed? Language that can be understood when cranked up to the highest speed? He spoke to quantitative linguist Francois Pellegrino about how experts measure all this, and together, they came up with an answer.

Perhaps my favourite title from this week's crop of new book releases, Joe Roman's pop science book, Eat Poop Die 😁

#bookstodon #vendredilecture #books #mastolivre #livre "A Taste for poison", de Neil Bradbury. A la découverte de onze manières d'empoisonner le corps humain, de molécules contenues dans les plantes jusqu"aux substances radioactives. Un livre plutôt amusant en dépit du sujet et des affaires macabres qui sont présentées. L'auteur, un prof de biochimie, explique bien comment chaque molécule détériore à sa manière les cellules et empêche le corps de fonctionner. J'ai été étonné par la taille minuscule de la bille métallique contenant de la ricine, qui avait été injectée dans l'affaire du parapluie bulgare #popscience #science #poison #biology #biologie

#bookstodon #vendredilecture #books #mastolivre #livre Malgré son titre et sa couverture, ce livre n'est pas consacré aux méduses, sauf aux espèces Turritopsis qui sont immortelles. "Jellyfish age backwards", écrit par le chercheur en biologie moléculaire Nicklas Brendborg, fait le tour des mécanismes du vieillissement dans la nature et des moyens de le retarder. La dernière partie sur l'alimentation est moins convaincante mais l'ensemble très limpide. J'ai été fasciné par le rôle des télomères, des "capuchons" à l'extrémité de nos chromosomes, dont le raccourcissement - avec l'âge - a un impact sur la cellule #biology #biologie #science #popscience

I was raised on #pbs. First #sesamestreet and The Electric Company, then #zoom then 321 Contact and eventually #Connections. I added Curiosity Stream to our Roku last week and tonight I’m fan-girling - er - *watching* the new version. Give me an hour with James Burke connecting Napoleon’s toothpick to Nielsen ratings any day. #popscience #popsci #untappedhistory #jamesburke

Как семена замии ложнопаразитной попадают на древеса?
#биология #popscience #замия #саговник #эпифит
Липкие вонючие жёлтые пирамидки – семена замии ложнопаразитной (Zamia pseudoparasitica) прямо-таки созданы для того, чтобы упасть и воткнуться в почву округлённым острием, пустить корешки и вырасти в миловидную шишечку на теле земли.
Но это именно то, что данному растению совершенно не нужно. А нужно ему вот что: уткнуться в стволовую щель на высоте 7–20 метров и раскинуть по чужим ветвям свои перистые листья – этакая жутковатая пальмочка, растущая на дереве.
Это единственный известный эпифит из тысячи с лишним видов голосеменных.
Вот только как его семена оказываются на деревьях?Саговник Zamia pseudoparasitica в национальном парке Санта-Фе в Панаме. Замии – древние растения: этот род появился еще во времена динозавров, в конце мелового периода. Фото: Pedro Luis Castillo, Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute.
