Love you, #nerdfam! Stay #curious!Ancient Hunters Were #Female!? | #shortsTrace Dominguez2024-01-26 | Our society likes to think of males as the hunters and females as the gatherers, but is that the facts? Not according to #new #archaeology #science. In reality, #ancient women hunted with men, with dogs, with children, and even ALONE taking down game large and small. How do we know? A protein called amelogenin allows us to sex skeletons buried with hunters tools, blades, and spears.
Why did we get it wrong all these years? The patriar-- oh you know why.

Music by Epidemic SoundThese 3 Will Change EverythingTrace Dominguez2023-11-30 | By 2050 batteries will be hidden in our clothes and our walls, and will lift cars off the ground.How? Which ones? How long until this exists? || This episode supported by Clarendon Games; find their new game "Priorities" at @target target.com/p/clarendon-games-priorities-game/-/A-88031566
SYNOPSIS ♻️ 🀰🀰🀰🀰🀰🀰🀰🀰🀰🀰🀰🀰🀰 #Batteries run everything from tiny nanobots to the giant International Space Station and yet -- they're all pretty samey. When are we going to leave #Lithium-Ion in the dust for the next great battery? What will that look like?
In this video we take a look into the future of batteries, and let me know in the comments what YOU are looking forward to – Wearables? Battery-powered homes? The possibilities are only limited by ... uh … getting this battery #technology working 🧐
🔋 Uncover the facts behind battery hype! Will solid state batteries change the world (not yet) will we ever leave lithium behind? (Probably not), and will there be other chemistries that step up? (Sodium?!) Join me as I cut through the buzz and chat with the brilliant Dr. Shirley Meng about the future of batteries. From Solid State dreams to Lithium-Air magic, we're exploring the (not-so) hype-ist batteries that might revolutionize our tech. Dr Meng drops a bombshell – to transition to a battery-powered renewable infrastructure we may need to invest 1% of the WORLD economy. Could that be the key to unlocking flying cars and homes powered by walls? MAYBE. Worth it?! I THINK SO.
00:00 🚨 Why are batteries so bad? 00:51 🎙️ What are batteries though? 03:22 🪩 Lithium-Air. Lithium-Sulfur. Sodium-Ion??! Solid State!? 06:10 ⚡ Solid State: a game-changer? 07:00 🤑 So why don't we have them yet?! 08:52 ✂️ Cut through the hype 09:49 🤔 How many batteries will we need? 12:13 🕰️ None of these revolutionary batteries are here yet…
🙌 Huge thanks to Dr. Shirley Meng for sharing her insights and adding some perspective to our battery hype! Don't forget to hit like, subscribe, and stay tuned for more mind-blowing tech explorations!

SYNOPSIS 🀰🀰🀰🀰🀰🀰🀰🀰🀰🀰🀰🀰🀰 Human embryos are a difficult thing for medical researchers to handle. They're heavily regulated bits of human biology. Right now, any human embryos created for research have to be destroyed after 14 days unless they're implanted inside a person. But once they're in a person, it's impossible to study them under a microscope! Researchers needed a solution. They mixed several different types of pluripotent stem cells with some chemicals, and let them self-form into these "new" synthetic embryos. Synthetic embryos can't be implanted, and will never form a fetus, but they do behave very similarly to regular embryos and some researchers think they should be able to study them after the 14-day limit. What do you think? How did they make these? What does it all mean? Find out in this video.

💁♂️💁♀️💁 D E T A I L 💁💁♀️💁♂️ All three below are TRUE: 1. #ChatGPT and other ChatBot AI is the hot technology rn. 2. These #LargeLanguageModels don't know anything. 3. Humans are terrible lie detectors.
These three truthfacts make AI's overwhelming confident "speech" a kryptonite to human thinking. The #Dunning-KrugerEffect is a psychological tool to understand cognitive bias. It says when people learn a little about a complex topic, they are over confident in their understanding. #LargeLanguageModels present this exact behavior to audiences. Not only can LLMs like ChatGPT not fact check their replies, they also have no way of knowing what they don't know!
On top of that, most humans don't know how AI chatbots (like ChatGPT) work, meaning our own Dunning-Kruger bias comes into play as well. Tech like ChatGPT cannot fact check itself! Here's what you need to know.
This Dunning-Kruger Effect is AI's Biggest problem, and ours too.

People like Dianna Cowern (@physicsgirl) and *millions of others* are still sick, some of them have been for years. Where's the cure? What's happening? Can we help?
👇👇👇 S O U R C E S & M O R E 👇👇👇 This episode was a hard one to make. Like a lot of you I saw Simone pop up on the PhysicsGirl channel and was devastated. I've known Dianna for years and always respected and loved her #sciencecommunication. As Simone talked about what was happening, I started researching ME/CFS and COVID long haulers; that research became this video. I emailed Dianna's family and team before making this video to get their consent. I hope you learn something from this and leave with a better understanding of what she, and millions of others, are going through. I know I did.
The COVID-19 pandemic isn't over, and catching COVID isn't the whole story. For millions of people all over the world COVID is just the start of a long, horrible road. In 2019, the first cases of Long Haul COVID appeared. These are COVID patients who seem to have beaten the virus, but never get bette. Instead, they're exhausted, or in pain. They sleep for hours but don't feel rested, and even minor activities like going to the grocery store or checking email can wipe out what little energy they have.
As the COVID pandemic research money dries up, what happens to these people? How do they get care? How do they get better? Where's the cure for Long Covid?
Scientists researching this new illness stumbled upon a similar one called ME/CFS (or CFS/ME depending on where you're from). ME/CFS is a known, but little-understood syndrome that overlaps with many of the symptoms of long haul COVID patients. Are they they same thing?
I personally know at least two people who have come out with their struggles with Long COVID and ME/CFS. I want them to get better. After an incredible, worldwide commitment to finding solutions to COVID people are moving on. Do we really want to leave behind our friends and family? I don't think so.

📙📙📙 B L U R B 📙📙📙 Two weeks ago, at the National Ignition Facility at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory they fired the largest laser in the world at a fusion pellet the size of a BB. What happened next was WILD -- more energy was recorded exiting the fuel than the lasers put in. What does that mean? It means not only did the atoms inside the fuel fuse, but they fused in a similar way they would inside our nearest star. Some questions I had: How does this work? What did they do? What does this mean for the field of fusion? Will they do it again?
US officials announce nuclear fusion breakthrough cnn.com/us/live-news/nuclear-fusion-reaction-us-announcement-12-13-22/index.html “We are still a very long way from having fusion power the electric grid, never mind one power plant itself. The US project, while groundbreaking, only produced enough energy to boil about 2.5 gallons of water, Tony Roulstone, a fusion expert from the University of Cambridge’s Department of Engineering, told CNN.”

📙📙📙 B L U R B 📙📙📙 On arm day you bulk up your arms, leg day is for the legs; these are easy to understand — what’s more complicated is that the brain can do this too. When you have experiences, create routines, and even work out (literally) your brain changes. This change is called #neuroplasticity. Over time, your reactions and your worldview together can cause parts of your brain to bulk up; gaining grey matter to compensate for the increased activity. When a neuroscientist scans your brain they see this increased grey matter on an MRI (or fMRI). Using this information, surveys, and scans of hundreds of brains scientists can create correlations that reveal how people are likely to vote. Neuroscience is WILD. On days like this, science communication is so fun.

Where are these coming from? What's their #scam? Why do they seem to be more frequent now than ever before? I have so many questions, but we have the tools… we can do this!
I put the different scam / spam messages into four buckets: ‣ Urgent Problem ‣ FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) ‣ Fake Friends / Romance ‣ Fake Business
Each type of scam involves a different emotional appeal. The scammer wants you to be caught unawares, and to surrender your critical thinking so you give them money, information, or whatever. If you get one of these messages there are different places you can report them:
1) Federal Trade Commission phone calls, emails, computer support scams, imposter scams, fake checks, demands for you to send money (check, wire transfers, gift cards), student loan or scholarship scams, prize, grants, and sweepstakes offers http://reportfraud.ftc.gov
2) FBI : Federal Bureau of Investigation business email compromise, romance scams, election crimes, holiday scams, money mules, skimming, spoofing/phishing, ransomware, skimming, blanket fraud (adoption, elder, consumer, business and investment, health care), etc… http://tips.fbi.gov
3) Your mobile provider The big three :: Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile :: let you copy/forward the message to 7726 (SPAM). Some services (like Google Fi) may only support blocking / reporting using the phone software, but it's always worth trying to forward no matter what!

📙📙📙 B L U R B 📙📙📙 The #HiggsBoson sometimes (terribly) called the ‘God Particle’ was discovered 10 years ago. At the time, it was considered the greatest discovery in #physics. It was in the top science stories of the year 2012, and one of the biggest particle physics stories of the century! So, what’s happened since? In the decade since the discovery, physicists have upgraded the largest atom smasher in the world, realized there might be five more Higgs-Bosons, and realized that the Higgs Boson might prove the #multiverse exists AND keep our universe from collapsing in on itself! (No big deal.)
Unfortunately, there are more questions than answers. The Higgs particle is lighter than expected (why?!) and might have four other sister particles (where are they?)!?
Fortunately, in the ten years since the God Particle was unmasked - Physicists upgraded the Large Hadron Collider to even higher energies - Restarted the largest particle accelerator in the world for LHC Run 3 - And have tons of theories as to why, where, how and what is going on with this mysterious particle.] As I like to say: #moreresearchisneeded

📙📙📙 B L U R B 📙📙📙 Bats & moths have been locked in a #SonicArmsRace for millions of years, and their evolution may help us create sound-absorbing materials superior to anything humans have invented today. Bats evolved #echolocation in order to better hunt moths (their prey). In response, certain species of moth evolved ways to absorb or reflect the echolocation squeaks of the bats. After millions of years of evolution pressure, some moths can absorb broad frequencies of sound with an efficiency only seen in advanced engineered #metamaterials. What does this mean for us? Someday, we humans may learn to copy the moth's evolutionary advantages and absorb broadband sound using paper-thin technologies that simply wouldn't exist otherwise!
📕📕📕 L E A R N M O R E 📕📕📕 Moth wings as sound absorber metasurface royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rspa.2022.0046 Each scale absorbs sound at the frequency of its main resonance modes [21]. When numerous scales of differing size and therefore resonant frequencies cover the membrane, the result is broadband acoustic absorption in the deep-subwavelength regime
Moth wings are acoustic metamaterials pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2014531117 Bats and moths are embroiled in an evolutionary arms race. Using ultrasonic biosonar, bats detect their insect prey, which in turn deploy diverse strategies to avoid predation. Here, we show that some moth species evolved wings covered with a canopy of scales that reduces ultrasonic echoes. Our empirical and mathematical analysis together show that moth wings exhibit key features of a desirable technological acoustic metamaterial. This work enriches our understanding of the structural and functional complexity of lepidopteran wings and reveals enticing new ways to design, using bioinspired metamaterial properties, high-performance acoustic panels and noise mitigation devices.
Ultrasonic predator–prey interactions in water–convergent evolution with insects and bats in air? frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fphys.2013.00137/full The ultrasound sensitive ears in combination with sudden evasive maneuvers mitigate predation risk from echolocating bats, increasing the insect's chance of survival by at least 40% (Surlykke et al., 1999). Some bats have lowered the intensity of their calls by 20–40 dB, apparently as a counterstrategy against the ultrasound sensitive ears (Goerlitz et al., 2010). While other bats echolocate at frequencies outside the best hearing range of moths

🧬 DESCRIPTION 🧬 ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀ #Fusion is the future of energy, period. The best way we know (today) to create viable fusion is using a tokamak (similar to a stellarator) to fuse hydrogen plasma and make (functionally unlimited) clean energy using regular old seawater. There are teams of engineers, scientists, and experts all over the world working to make fusion a reality, and these two breakthroughs are HUGE steps in the right direction.
First breakthrough: JET the Joint European Torus in England sustained fusion for 5 seconds - a new world record! Second breakthrough: VCT Variable Configuration #Tokamak (TCV á France) used Google's DeepMind AI to make their fusion tokamak manage the superheated plasma in ways better than the human brain ever could.

Caring for infants is associated with increased reproductive success for male mountain gorillas nature.com/articles/s41598-018-33380-4 Socioecological theory predicts that male parenting among mammals should be rare due to the large payoffs of prioritizing mating effort over parenting. Although these predictions are generally met, in some promiscuous primate species males overcome this by identifying their offspring, and providing benefits such as protection and resource access.
Bowlby's Evolutionary Theory of Attachment http://labs.psychology.illinois.edu/~rcfraley/attachment.htm The theory of attachment was originally developed by John Bowlby (1907 - 1990), a British psychoanalyst who was attempting to understand the intense distress experienced by infants who had been separated from their parents.

Add Health Study https://addhealth.cpc.unc.edu The National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (Add Health) is a longitudinal study of a nationally representative sample of over 20,000 adolescents who were in grades 7-12 during the 1994-95 school year, and have been followed for five waves to date, most recently in 2016-18.
A Matter of Time: Father Involvement and Child Cognitive Outcomes onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/jomf.12532 Fathers in Western countries allocate progressively more time to child care. However, most research on how parental time inputs affect child development focuses on maternal time. It remains unclear how paternal involvement in the child's upbringing influences child outcomes.

Stay #curious!I Quit (You Should Too) | Why The Great Resignation is HappeningTrace Dominguez2021-08-02 | 'Success’ and ‘perseverance’ are cool and all, but the science is clear: quitting is good. || Thanks to Brilliant for helping make this show. Try it here: http://brilliant.org/trace Want to know 🄼🄾🅁🄴?👇
41% of Americans are about to quit their jobs is what is being called the #GreatResignation, what does this mean for you? Should I quit my job? Should you quit YOUR job? #Quitting and leaving it all behind is the subject of countless movies, books, teen fantasies, but why do we love to quit? What is the power behind the simple act of stopping? Why don’t people do it more? What keeps us doing things we don't like?? In my mind, there are three simple explanations: #Uncertainty, the Sunk Cost Fallacy, and #CognitiveDissonance. Today we explore quitting!
🚨UPDATE: Simone Biles dropped out of several events in the 2020 Olympic Games. She quit to protect her mental health, maybe you should quit too?
📓 For the first time ever, I decided to add an extended edition of this video on Nebula! Check it out to learn more about how quitting works in the brain of a zebrafish, and why it might not be your neurons helping us (finally) stop. https://nebula.app/tracedominguez (If you use this link I get credit for it!)

Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey bls.gov/jlt/home.htm These data serve as demand-side indicators of labor shortages at the national level. Prior to JOLTS, there was no economic indicator of the unmet demand for labor with which to assess the presence or extent of labor shortages in the United States. The availability of unfilled jobs—the job openings rate—is an important measure of the tightness of job markets, parallel to existing measures of unemployment.

It Depends on How You Measure the Price ers.usda.gov/webdocs/publications/44678/19980_eib96.pdf?v=0 Most Americans consume diets that do not meet Federal dietary recommendations. A common explanation is that healthier foods are more expensive than less healthy foods.

Don’t show up unprepared, be strategic and learn these psychological theories to help you win any argument! 👇👇👇 Sources & More down here 👇👇👇
Arguments are human nature, but there are a few tactics that psychology can bring to your side to help you win any argument. Political, policy, scientific, religious, or even the classic: “Is a hot dog a sandwich?”
The key: Listen. Ask Questions. Be Empathetic. Do that over, and over, and over and you’ll eventually find a win! Seriously, if you make yourself a real person to your opponent you’ll eventually win your argument!
What do you think? Is a hot dog a sandwich?
Cialdini’s Six “weapons of influence” as laid out by the American Psychological Association - Reciprocity: We inherently want to return favors - Commitment and consistency: We strive to do and think what we profess to do and think. - Social proof: We look to our peers for deciding what’s acceptable and desirable. - Authority: If not our peers, then those in charge. - Liking: We’re easily persuaded by those we feel good about. - Scarcity: We desire what is rare.

Towel Studies “Commercial decision-makers commonly base important program or policy choices on thinking grounded in the established theories and practices of a variety of business-related fields (e.g., economics, finance, distribution, accounting, supply management). What is vexing is how seldom these decision-makers avail themselves of established psychological theories and practices.” psychologicalscience.org/observer/dont-throw-in-the-towel-use-social-influence-research
Applying the Elaboration Likelihood Model to Voting researchgate.net/publication/290799823_Applying_the_Elaboration_Likelihood_Model_to_Voting ELM hypotheses were applied to voting patterns in Wisconsin elections in the late 2010s. Image and Favorability predicted voting under high involvement, while Favorability, Credibility, Image, and Political Party Preference predicted voting under low involvement. Results were used to describe two models for voting: one for voters who have high involvement, and one for voters with low involvement.

You value things that you EXPECT to happen and can alter your psychology around it. Someone who EXPECTS to pass a test might do better on the test, simply because they’re open to the idea. (It’s especially valuable for children.)
If I tell you to wear sunscreen, you either EXPECT to burn or don’t, and thus assign VALUE to my statement. If I tell you we’re going to cut your taxes, you might EXPECT that would cause social inequality, and equality is something you VALUE so you’ll vote against it. Again, think about how you might react emotionally to this, so your expectations and values might be skewed or tricked.

300,000 year-old “early Homo sapiens” sparks debate over evolution arstechnica.com/science/2017/06/300000-year-old-early-homo-sapiens-sparks-debate-over-evolution Until this week, the earliest known fossils of Homo sapiens were about 200,000 years old. But two recent papers in Nature have obliterated that date with a report of 300,000 year-old skull fragments from five individuals found in Morocco. The researchers who discovered the fossils call them "early Homo sapiens." But other scientists say this misrepresents the complex story of human #evolution and adaptation.

Free Will in the Block Universe? pdfs.semanticscholar.org/98f0/9659def6cbcaff7d893197b3cc3ddd939769.pdf Since Einstein‘s theories of special and general relativity were accepted by the scientific community, a good deal (perhaps most) of the specialists in this branch of physics have favored the world image called the block universe.
A Debate over the Physics of Time quantamagazine.org/a-debate-over-the-physics-of-time-20160719 Einstein once described his friend Michele Besso as “the best sounding board in Europe” for scientific ideas. They attended university together in Zurich; later they were colleagues at the patent office in Bern. When Besso died in the spring of 1955, Einstein — knowing that his own time was also running out — wrote a now-famous letter to Besso’s family. “Now he has departed this strange world a little ahead of me,” Einstein wrote of his friend’s passing. “That signifies nothing. For us believing physicists, the distinction between past, present and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion.”
The Planck Scale symmetrymagazine.org/article/the-planck-scale In the late 1890s, physicist Max Planck proposed a set of units to simplify the expression of physics laws. Using just five constants in nature (including the speed of light and the gravitational constant), you, me and even aliens from Alpha Centauri could arrive at these same Planck units.

Why is a minute divided into 60 seconds, an hour into 60 minutes, yet there are only 24 hours in a day? scientificamerican.com/article/experts-time-division-days-hours-minutes In today's world, the most widely used numeral system is decimal (base 10), a system that probably originated because it made it easy for humans to count using their fingers. The civilizations that first divided the day into smaller parts, however, used different numeral systems, specifically duodecimal (base 12) and sexagesimal (base 60). AND ABC Science: Why are there 24 hours in a day? https://www.abc.net.au/science/articles/2011/11/15/3364432.htm "Night-time was divided in 12 hours, based on the observations of stars. The Egyptians had a system of 36 star groups called 'decans' — chosen so that on any night one decan rose 40 minutes after the previous one.

We all know what it feels like as time passes. Our present becomes the past as soon as it’s happened; today soon turns into yesterday. If you live in a temperate climate, each year you see the seasons come and go. And as we reach adulthood and beyond, we become increasingly aware of the years flashing by.
#Perception of Sequence and Duration britannica.com/science/time-perception/Perception-of-sequence-and-duration To perceive is to become aware of stimulation. Awareness of sequence or duration may, at first glance, seem inconsistent with the definition of perceiving. In a mathematical sense, certainly, the present is only a point along the continuum of becoming, an instant when future is transformed into past.
13 Milliseconds is all it takes to see http://news.mit.edu/2014/in-the-blink-of-an-eye-0116 Imagine seeing a dozen pictures flash by in a fraction of a second. You might think it would be impossible to identify any images you see for such a short time. However, a team of neuroscientists from MIT has found that the human brain can process entire images that the eye sees for as little as 13 milliseconds — the first evidence of such rapid processing speed. ↪ ✨✨✨ Did you see the ‘Easter eggs’ in the video at this point 😉✨✨✨
Your brain has 2 clocks scientificamerican.com/article/your-brain-has-two-clocks Did you make it to work on time this morning? Go ahead and thank the traffic gods, but also take a moment to thank your brain. The brain’s impressively accurate internal clock allows us to detect the passage of time, a skill essential for many critical daily functions. Without the ability to track elapsed time, our morning shower could continue indefinitely. Without that nagging feeling to remind us we’ve been driving too long, we might easily miss our exit.

Time Perception britannica.com/science/time-perception The human experience of change is complex. One primary element clearly is that of a succession of events, but distinguishable events are separated by more or less lengthy intervals that are called durations. Thus, sequence and duration are fundamental aspects of what is perceived in change.

Metaphors and Historical Conceptions of the Brain http://mechanism.ucsd.edu/~bill/teaching/w12/philneuro/metaphorsandconceptionsofbrain.key.pdf "The brain, the masterpiece of creation, is almost unknown to us." -- Nicolaus Steno, 1669
The computer as a metaphor for psychological inquiry: Considerations and recommendations link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.3758/BF03201006.pdf My concern is with the computer as a metaphor for explaining perception and action. A representative sample of arguments for and against the paradigm are presented and evaluated. The conclusion is that the idea of computation is productive for achieving a functionalist description of how we perceive and act.
The empty brain: Your brain does not process information, retrieve knowledge or store memories. In short: your brain is not a computer aeon.co/essays/your-brain-does-not-process-information-and-it-is-not-a-computer No matter how hard they try, brain scientists and cognitive psychologists will never find a copy of Beethoven’s 5th Symphony in the brain – or copies of words, pictures, grammatical rules or any other kinds of environmental stimuli. The human brain isn’t really empty, of course. But it does not contain most of the things people think it does – not even simple things such as ‘memories’.
The Language Of The Brain ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4763947/ OUR BRAINS ARE BETTER THAN GOOGLE OR THE BEST ROBOT FROM iROBOT. We can instantly search through a vast wealth of experiences and emotions. We can immediately recognize the face of a parent, spouse, friend or pet, whether in daylight, darkness, from above or sideways—a task that the computer vision system built into the most sophisticated robots can accomplish only haltingly.

⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠⏠ 📚📚📚 SOURCES ⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡⏡ Neuron theory, the cornerstone of neuroscience, on the centenary of the Nobel Prize award to Santiago Ramón y Cajal linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S0361923006002334 Exactly 100 years ago, the Nobel Prize for Physiology and Medicine was awarded to Santiago Ramón y Cajal, “in recognition of his meritorious work on the structure of the nervous system”. Cajal's great contribution to the history of science is undoubtedly the postulate of neuron theory.
Santiago Ramón y Cajal :: Biographical nobelprize.org/prizes/medicine/1906/cajal/biographical Santiago Ramón y Cajal was born on May 1, 1852, at Petilla de Aragón, Spain. As a boy he was apprenticed first to a barber and then to a cobbler. He himself wished to be an artist – his gift for draughtsmanship is evident in his published works.
How the human body uses electricity https://www.graduate.umaryland.edu/gsa/gazette/February-2016/How-the-human-body-uses-electricity/ Electricity is everywhere, even in the human body. Our cells are specialized to conduct electrical currents. Electricity is required for the nervous system to send signals throughout the body and to the brain, making it possible for us to move, think and feel.
Degrees of Freedom newyorker.com/magazine/2018/11/26/how-to-control-a-machine-with-your-brain For eighteen years, Jan Scheuermann has been paralyzed from the neck down. She is six feet tall, and she spends all day and all night in a sophisticated, battery-powered wheelchair that cradles her—half sitting, half reclining—from head to toe. In effect, the chair has become an extension of her body. To navigate the world in it, Scheuermann manipulates a cork-tipped joystick with her chin.
The Action Potential by C. George Boeree http://webspace.ship.edu/cgboer/actionpot.html The movement of a signal through the neuron and its axon is all about ions. An ion is a charged particle, such as Na+, the sodium ion. It has a positive charge, because it is missing one electron. Other ions, of course, are negatively charged.

Humans will not hit #exoplanets' surface in our lifetimes. We are barely be able to return to the moon in the next few decades! And Mars? Who knows when or if that will ever be available to human visitation and research. #SpaceExploration is our first step into a new and complicated future. Will it be us? Will it just be computerized copies of us sent to robot-bodies that were pre-shipped to another world? Will we ever REALLY be multi-planetary? Will we ever REALLY leave earth? What if we beam our brains to another planet? Could we have an all digital culture of robotic humans on Trappist-1?! 🤖
SERIES DESCRIPTION: Can we #LiveOnMars? Can we build a #LunarColony? Should we leave this solar system entirely? What would we need to visit another star? Can humans survive out there in the emptiness of space? I answer all these questions and more in my new science and technology series all about #leavingearth! New episodes every other day all week!

Landing on the moon was an achievement celebrated all over the world. The Apollo astronauts were the first to realize the power of a visit to our largest satellite, but could we all one day have a chance to visit the moon?
The SpaceX Launch changed how we looked at space. JPL is sending robots to Mars. Eventually we are going to go back to the Moon, but whereas last time we visited for a day a time, now we're talking about forming a permanent #lunarbase! Could we ACTUALLY live there? Could we REALLY survive? I called Ariel Waldman and Pascal Lee to get their take.

The day we step foot on Mars will be one of the most gloriously exciting days in all of human history.
