November 30, 2024 by Deborah Bloomfield

There is a cognitive bias called “the curse of knowledge” (sometimes also called “the curse of expertise”). It happens when you incorrectly assume that everyone knows as much as you do on a given topic. As a clinical microbiologist, I assumed everyone knew that it was a terrible idea to kiss a newborn baby anywhere […]

What Is A Sidereal Year, And Why Is It Different From A Regular Year?

November 30, 2024 by Deborah Bloomfield

Pop quiz! How long is the average year? If you said “365 days”, then congratulations! You’re wrong. If you said “365.25 days”, then gratulationes – you’re also wrong, and probably a Roman. The average year is, in fact, 365.242 days long – just so long as you’re not talking about the sidereal year. So what’s […]

Evolution is generally considered to be quite a slow, clunky process. However, dogs living in the Chernobyl nuclear power plant have undergone rapid evolution in the forty years since the disaster.

Have We Uncovered A New Species Of Ancient Humans?

November 30, 2024 by Deborah Bloomfield

Were you to time travel to Asia in the late Middle and early Late Pleistocene periods, some 300,000 to 50,000 years ago, you would discover a melting pot of different human species – from the diminutive Homo luzonensis in the Philippines to the Homo longi (or ‘dragon man) inhabiting the frigid climes of Northern China. Now, […]

However, the process is more laborious than it might seem at first, and different techniques have different drawbacks. Polymers have been used to efficiently remove water from the air, but getting the water […]

“Star Eaters”: Could Binary Systems Be Alien Civilizations Feeding On Stars For Energy?

November 30, 2024 by Deborah Bloomfield

A new study has suggested we may be looking for the wrong kinds of signatures in our hunt for intelligent civilizations out there in the universe. Perhaps we should be looking for “star eaters”.

This Is How To Be A Badass, According To Science

November 29, 2024 by Deborah Bloomfield

Let me tell you about my chickens. I built them a warm, safe coop, yet they voluntarily sleep outside where the foxes prowl, always turning up unscathed in the morning. They bully the hell out of my cats and steal their food. I wish they would lay their eggs in their nesting box, but heck […]

What Are Electrons Made Of?

November 29, 2024 by Deborah Bloomfield

The question of what protons or neutrons are made up of has an apparently simple answer: quarks and gluons. However, when it comes to atoms’ third component, electrons, the answer is not as easy.
