Can you imagine us as dinosaurs in the future ... nothing left but the bones!

In some cases nothing but the shells and thus those Ammonites in the stone business ...
 
The Elron winning documentary Our Fascinating Planet has been given the greenlight for a 2nd season! Woo-hoo!

Here is an excerpt from an episode

Here is the last diet plan you will ever need. Bet you don’t know how you lose weight. Watch this to be enlightened. It’s math and chemistry.

I’m just starting out and planning on a 10% reduction.

 
Deit in some traditions will bleed you dry ... that'd be a legislated process ... protocol if you can believe bureaucracy without minor Q lo'Oz ... 2 required just for the Reuben ...

Eat less and move more to lose weight. Wow who would of thought of that?:rolleyes: The rest of the video was clear as mud.

What?
Your body turns fat into water and carbon dioxide. You knew that?
You exhale carbon dioxide through your lungs and that is how you lose weight.

No. The last part of the video where he stated the obvious about eating less and moving more to lose weight. The rest was clear as mud. How clear is your mud?

Niiiiiiice presentation
We breathe in a corrosive gas and breathe out a pollutant...who knew? :3

CO2?? I barely knew him,

Go 2 wit ... everybody should get some ... stop theis stoic fixation ... get out there! Do some substitutionary stuff ... put some good in a' vail ... grove 'n ture ... after itshung ... edge hanger?
 
New impact crater in Greenland and it may have happened as recently as 12,000 years ago, after humans had reached the Americas. However, it could also be as old as 3,000,000 years, still within the human evolutionary timeline but prior to modern species like us and Neanderthals. If it happened at the nearer end of that rather wide time horizon, we may be able to find evidence of its impact in archaeological sites from that period. And it is big enough to have had an impact through global cooling, similar to what happens after major volcanic eruptions.

More stuffing on uncertainty ... something to hold close as too allow further etude ... albeit some are fixated on determinacy based on mythicism of looking into deep spaces of the cosmological mind that's alas ... way out there!

Appears we fell out as andro neanderthal ... still stuck in the tunneling and Minas tuff ... Golden thoughts of warm Donkeys Oute 'd Eire!

What we need is more Theo Rae on the great baffling ... the parietal lo' beas as causing buzz ... hive'n oh Ide-Ah! Could it be Ms. Homer ...
 
A measured, thoughtful response and deconstruction of the whole idea of the mysterious object known as Oumuamua being an alien artifact. Short version is that it is much less likely than several proposed natural explanations for the objects strange characteristics. Matt also takes a few gentle shots at the media coverage.

 
Science (the multiple kinds that r practiced) is very cool
Even when it is aboot something immensely hot

Hands up everyone who loves sloths!

What's not to love? Cute fuzzy herbivores who hang upside down in trees in Central and South America. I saw one in Costa Rica a few years ago.

But they have a fascinating history, and this week's PBS Eons tells what we know of it to date.

 
It slo*eth evolution of the vegetation?

And autonomous humanity haven't the Vagis 'đ clues ... anti seminal ... lost semantics?

Displaced lost words ...
 
What do scientists do when they find something curious and bizarre?
(The ones who don't toss it out because it scares them or otherwise makes them uncomfortable...)

Finding: 90% of all species seem to be only 100k to 200k old
Now these scientists ( Mark Stoeckle from The Rockefeller University in New York and David Thaler at the University of Basel in Switzerland) try to come up with explanations for that
Sweeping gene survey reveals new facets of evolution
And of course commentary on commentary
I love reality :3

Isomorphically Unique,

Ps. Hope to read and hear more aboot the gobsmacking hooge crater in Greenland...should b terrifying policymakers and scientists everywhere...more important things to spend money on right now than CCC mitigation: gotta keep theze short term climate changing rocks from murderin us all lol

Makes perfect sense to me. It doesn't mean the lineages are only 100k-200k years old, only that the current species are. And that fits with how evolution works. A species adapts to a new environment or a change in their environment and that leads to a new species that will probably displace its predecessor. If the environment changes too drastically, completely new lineages may move in and fill that niche. 90% is a bit surprising but given evolution and a changing environment, which we have had over that time period due to the ice ages, I can see why it might be the case.

Where is such evolution currently taking place? Where are the new species of today?

Isn't it amazing how quickly your brain tried 2 make sense of it?

Another cool science fact :3
