This Plant Thrives Despite the Harsh Environment of Space

Plants & Animals, Science /

Tardigrades are among the toughest animals, surviving dehydration, freezing, and space radiation. Recent findings offer more promising news: their favorite habitat might also endure space travel unharmed. Experiments by Chang-hyun Maeng at Hokkaido University show mosses can endure harsh conditions outside a spacecraft. The biologist and his team studied which parts of Physcomitrium patens—protonemata, germ […]

Researchers Found that Human Emotions may Influence Water Crystal Formation

All sciences, Chemistry /

Researchers suggest that emotions such as joy, love, and anger may extend beyond the human body, potentially leaving traces on the structure of water itself. According to specialists, water exposed to different emotional inputs appears to show distinct crystal patterns, displaying orderly or chaotic shapes depending on the type of “vibration” it receives. The idea
