Space@mander.xyz•Alien World Chemistry Found Inside Meteorite
3·4 months agoThe meteorite contained a wide variety of soluble organic compounds, and its compositional range confirms that the Hillsborough meteorite was more altered by water than most other CM-type meteorites. “A high fraction of compounds were the product of organic chemistry with minerals,” said organic mass spectrometry specialist Phil Schmitt-Kopplin of Technical University Munich. “We do not know if these magnesium organic compounds were contributed by brine chemistry or were simply left over from earlier impact shock processes.”
Asteroids don’t stay warm for very long. For organic compunds to be forming in a transient brine here, they must be all over the universe

Aside from a social obligation to clear misunderstanding, infodumps can be interesting conversation. I personally strive to condense my stories to be very short, with “beg-the-question” hooks. No offense taken if they couldn’t care less and we move on. It’s a win if they have some barely adjacent experience to share
You can ice the area beforehand, and leave the med on the counter to warm to room temp. Both should reduce pain. You can also take paracetamol 30 min before. It is normal to be averse to pain, and if it hurts less the process will become easier

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL that half the visual information from each retina goes to one hemisphere of the brain, rather than one eye per hemisphereEnglish
2·5 months agoIt is really cool to perceive some of the structure of your visual cortex in cases like this. Another example is watching the patterns when your eyes are closed for a while in a dark room. Those spreading waves you can sometimes see resemble the activity recorded from cortex at rest.



Crickets MAY lament the cruel twist of fate that brought them to the jaws of your pet bearded dragon. They MAY silently cry out in anguish at the loss of all future opportunity, expected gandparentage of a large brood, the sudden looming question of an afterlife.
Or they may experience a relatively simple and brief pain, while displaying features so alien to ours that it does not prime people to be calloused to human suffering.
