Japanese Power Plant Turns Saltwater Into Electricity and It’s a Glimpse Into The Future
Fukuoka District Waterworks Agency Scientists believe saltwater could become a reliable source of renewable energy through a process known as osmosis. Japan has now taken a major step in that direction. Earlier this month, Japan officially launched its first osmotic power plant in Fukuoka, a large city to the west of Tokyo. That makes Japan the second country in the world to bet on osmotic power, after Denmark. Fukuoka’s plant is expected to generate about 880,000 kilowatt hours of […] -
💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🩸🧊 Iron rich #saltwater trapped beneath Taylor #Glacier for over a million years seeps out in red pulses that look like bleeding.
A 2026 study from #Louisiana State University caught an outflow in action using #GPS, #cameras, and temperature #sensors. #Sulfate breathing #bacteria thrive in the dark brine, making Blood Falls a model for life on icy worlds.

Wiele osob kojarzy zmarla wczoraj #MoyaBrennan z #Clannad i ich utworu do czolowki serialu #RobinHood #TheHoodedMan.

Uzyczyla swojego wokalu do utworu #Chicane - #Saltwater. Jednego z tych, ktore klubowicze nazywaja "anthems" i rozpoznaja od pierwszego dzwieku. I nie byl tu tylko wykorzystanym na potrzeby produkcji samplem, tylko faktyczna wspolpraca z grupa Chicane - i wpasowal sie w ten klimat po prostu IDEALNIE. -

🐳💧 #Whales and #seals live in a #saltwater #environment where drinking the #ocean would be dangerous. These marine #mammals stay hydrated through a mix of high-efficiency kidneys and a biological process that turns the fat in their food into fresh #water.

This could be a lifesaver in war zones or in conflict zones like Ukraine or Gaza.

Corps completes Mississippi River sill to protect New Orleans’ drinking water
The Corps built the sill in 12 days and finished construction on Oct. 10. The sill forms a continuous barrier across the river near Myrtle Grove in Plaquemines Parish, 55 feet below the water’s surface. The Corps expects it will successfully keep salt water from reaching the drinking water intakes upriver.

Prospect of life on #Saturn’s moons rises after discovery of organic substances
Scientists studying water vapour plume from #Enceladus find presence of complex molecules that could harbour life.
The phenomenon has since been captured by the James Webb space telescope, with the plume reaching nearly 6,000 miles into space. The source of this material is thought to be a #saltwater #ocean that lies beneath the moon’s icy crust.

Army Corps of Engineers begins to construct underwater sill amid saltwater intrusion concerns
The Army Corps of Engineers will begin to construct an underwater sill across the bed of the Mississippi River to help prevent upriver progression of saltwater from the Gulf.
The Mississippi River's volume of water has fallen to a level that allows saltwater to intrude upstream.
