An aluminum shield enables the amphipod Hirondellea gigas to inhabit deep-sea environments
The amphipod Hirondellea gigas inhabits the deepest regions of the oceans in extreme high-pressure conditions. However, the mechanisms by which this amphipod adapts to its high-pressure environment remain unknown. In this study, we investigated the elemental content of the exoskeleton of H. gigas specimens captured from the deepest points of the Mariana Trench. The H. gigas exoskeleton contained aluminum, as well as a major amount of calcium carbonate. Unlike other (accumulated) metals, aluminu…

Just popped into my head - a memory of an evening, lit but not bright: I was walking and suddenly came face-to-"face' with a person in full Klu Klux Klan regalia, with pointed hood.

There's more to the story...

Nomination des Directeurs de l’audiovisuel par le président, c’est exactement ce que la loi fondamentale allemande de 1949 a interdit. Et pour cause. Comment M. Alloncle peut-on être aussi mauvais en histoire. Ou c’est voulu pour tuer la démocratie ?

Content warning: NZPol selling off the family silver

Can't help but wonder if politicians in Aotearoa are pondering the wisdom of selling off all our food processing (and timber, dairy, aluminium, etc.) to foreign corporations... Given that they can 'increase shareholder value' by moving production to places where they don't have to care for pollution or workers rights, it means we lose fundamental production capabilities to the detriment of the entire population.

The blue origin explosion used the same amount of c02 as recycling 8.5 million aluminum cans.
The USA uses 100 billion aluminum cans a year. Of which 46 billion are recycled which saved 5,500 blue origin explosions a year.

It’s ridiculous how good golden beets taste like
(just add some salt and oil, e.g. avocado oil, wrap in aluminum foil and roast in oven at 350°F for 75 minutes)
