Dorito Dye Makes Mice TRANSPARENT?!
Tartrazine, commonly called Yellow 5, is a dye that was discovered in the 1880s. It’s been used for food and cosmetics for generations… but it turns out that it can change the refractive index of water to allow us to see through mice and to expose their internal organs. “The dye in Doritos can make…

The VR Backpack Gamers HATED (Interactor)
The 1980s cemented the role of the home video game console. By the early 1990s, gamers wanted to take their experience to the next level by harnessing physics and haptic feedback into a wearable gaming vest called the Aura Interactor… or did they?! The lure of cymatics and the excitement of 90s tech experimentation generated…

Ho provato a sorprendere il mio partner con una colazione a letto. Era una cosa dolce, finché non ho rovesciato per sbaglio il succo d’arancia sulle lenzuola. Non c’è niente di meglio di una situazione appiccicosa per iniziare la mattina🌺

They found them in the ocean and just said it was mantle rocks. Because we have never drilled that deep. Not even close.

There’s no way they drilled it up cause of heat. How did they find it? Or did we unlock new tech to drill that deep?

One, bullshit. We collect mantle pieces from lava bombs all the time, they are common in any area that had some explosive volcanic activity, it’s not the first time. Two, olivine is very common in mantle rocks, and this core sample was extracted from the sea floor, so of course it’s going to have extra magnesium present. Three, the only really thing interesting was how deep and long the core sample was, and it can shed light some some of the tectonic processes ove time. Four, the life supposition is just an offhand hypothesis on chemical composition versus hydrogen generation and remark for consumption as dumb science media for fools to justify why they would do this. Five, the principle of uniformitarianism almost doesn’t apply here for the chemistry aspects, because the conditions currently are vastly different from the Earth ~3.7 billion years ago when life is believed to have first started to form.

How? The farthest humans have ever drilled is about 1/3rd of the way through the crust. This sounds like BS
