Truth behind crop circles finally revealed as huge version appears in field

Posted by in category: futurism

A post on the Croppie website, for crop circle enthusiasts, described the new pictogram as a ‘reproduction, remaster, even, of the most iconic crop circle of all time’ Cover versions might never quite be as good as the original – but this remaster of a rock classic looks just like the real thing.

Meteor which exploded over The Atlantic had force comparable to Hiroshima bomb

Posted by in categories: asteroid/comet impacts, existential risks, military

A meteor has exploded over the Atlantic Ocean with the force of the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima. It’s one of the ways that civilisation as we know it could end, with an asteroid impact sending the human race the way of the dinosaurs. It’s a terrifying prospect, and the film Don’t Look Up with Jennifer Lawrence and Leonardo DiCaprio really didn’t help matter with its demonstration of the paralysis and greed which could doom humanity.

Here’s What A Doctor Says Actually Happens When You Die

Posted by in category: biotech/medical

It’s surprisingly reassuring. Aside from “breathing”, “sleeping”, and “putting on Troy McClure’s accent every time you say his name”, I reckon panicking about death is one of the most universal human experiences. Obviously, part of the problem of wondering what happens when you die is that nobody with any real qualifications can answer you.

Novel Role for Ribosomes Uncovered

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, genetics

One of the oldest known molecules, the ribosome, creates proteins based on a copy of the genetic code found in the genome, known as mRNA. Scientists have believed that the ribosome performed the same type of work with all mRNA, like a standardized assembly line that it did not regulate on its own. However, researchers from the University of Copenhagen have discovered this is not the case.

Their findings are published in the journal Developmental Cell in an article entitled “Ribosomal RNA 2′-O-methylation dynamics impact cell fate decisions.”

“It has long been known that there are different types of ribosomes. But it has been assumed that no matter what mRNA you give the ribosome, it will produce a protein. But our results suggest that different types of ribosomes produce specific proteins,” says Anders H. Lund, professor at the Biotech Research and Innovation Center at the University of Copenhagen.
