I remember it was in the new books section of the school library and I was attracted to it immediately and spent the day reading it instead of paying attention in my classes. I need to read it again. Thanks for bringing it up!
I read that ages ago. Back in high school, in fact (I’m 46). I don’t remember it except the chapter where time is a flock of birds that you have to try to catch to stay youthful. The children can catch them but always let them go and the adults can never catch them.
Mindblowing. I never even thought of things that way!
That’s actually smaller than I would have thought. I wouldn’t have expected our solar system to even be visible in comparison.
Wow.
Mercury arc valves remain in use in some South African mines and Kenya (at Mombasa Polytechnic - Electrical & Electronic department).
Amazing how we’re still using such old technology in some places when we have semiconductors.
That said, a microscope that generates its own light without electricity could be quite useful…
Here you go. I put a red rectangle around it so it can be found more easily.
The Vikings expanded throughout Russia by using the Volga as a highway.
It’s 42, we told you. Stop asking.
I think the writers just couldn’t bear it.
I don’t know that you could necessarily develop the wheelbarrow without first having the concept of the wheeled cart.
Wheeled carts are not very practical without draught animals to pull them. And the one place they had animals like that, in South America, llamas and the civilizations that utilized them lived in the mountains where wheeled carts aren’t practical either.
They say that Native Americans never developed the wheel. They clearly did. For sick dog skateboard tricks.
I just spent 5 minutes on Google because I misread your first line as ‘rips sock bong hit’ and I was trying to figure out what the hell a sock bong was.
Tomatoes can be grown pretty successfully indoors. Also prickly pear.
No. Karaoke battle.
There’s a definite balance here- how to provide modern services to hard-to-reach places and how to make sure we can do good science. I’m not sure what the answer is when it comes to internet and rural areas, but internet is pretty much required in the modern world, at least in the West, and if you don’t have it at home, that can make your life much more difficult.
So what is someone living out in the woods to do without a service like Starlink? And what is someone in the Third World who wants to better their life to do in the same situation? I don’t have the answer, I wish I did.
Pff. You call that flying?
