The volcano in Scotland could have caused prehistoric global warming About 56 million years ago, the average temperature of the planet has increased dramatically. Researchers from Sweden and the UK in his new work showed that a powerful explosive eruption with Red hills on the Isle of Skye may have caused mass disruption to the climate. Article scientists published in the journal Scientific Reports. Large explosive eruptions can have a lasting effect on the climate and are considered responsible for serious climatic impacts in Earth’s history. One such event occurred about 56 million years ago when global temperatures rose by five to eight degrees Celsius. This event was called the Paleocene-Eocene thermal maximum. The warm period was associated with volcanic activity in the North Atlantic region, especially in Greenland, the British Isles and in the modern North sea region. However, until now Scotland has not been confirmed by any large

The arrow of the doomsday clock left at two minutes before midnight The arrow a so-called doomsday clock that displays the time to the conventional nuclear disaster (midnight) in 2019 did not translate clock still show 23:58, according to the website of the journal Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists. The last time the hands of the doomsday clock were transferred to 2018 to 30 seconds closer to midnight. Thus, the arrows stopped at 23:58, three times in the entire history of the project is in the same position were in 1953, when the United States and the Soviet Union with a difference nine months has tested hydrogen bombs. “Currently, humanity faces two existential threats, each of which can cause concern and require immediate response. These two major threats — nuclear weapons and climate change have been aggravated in the past year due to wider use of information warfare to undermine

Siberian archaeologists have discovered on the Yamal Peninsula the burial of men of the European race Scientists came to the conclusion that the burial relates to the first third — the middle of XVII century. NOVOSIBIRSK, January 24. /TASS/. Novosibirsk scientists have found that the remains of two people, the burial of which are found on the archaeological site of Ust-Waikaraka settlement on the Yamal Peninsula, belong to men of the Caucasian race, which is unusual for this area. About the uniqueness of the burial and other features of Ust ‘ -Waikaraka settlement TASS was told by geneticists and archaeologists. Genetic examination Burial in Ust-Vocarska the settlement in the floodplain of river Gornaya Ob was discovered in 2016 on the last season of field work in the monument. Two skeletons found in the remains of a wooden house, right in the hearth, where the fire burns. That men were buried,

The greenback showed the instantaneous transformation of water into ice (video) Real magic. 60-year-old Alaska resident, Rod Coop, going through the rubble in the attic in the winter, made an unusual discovery. He found a few bottles of drinking water, but dropping one on the floor, he saw that the water instantly turned to ice. During the download an error has occurred.NewsScientists have recreated the “wave-killer” in the lab Rod came down, captured with a smartphone and filmed the same phenomenon, but with another bottle. In the video you can see how the normal water when hitting the table immediately begins to freeze and for a split second becomes ice. American call it real magic, but the users of the Network explained the phenomenon from the point of view of physics. In the review they wrote that the reason drinking distilled water which is cleaned from any impurities. If its

The period of the appearance of man in Europe, moved to 5 thousand years Archaeologists from Seville University found that modern humans appeared in the South of Spain’s 44 thousand years ago. Previously, scientists believed that Homo sapiens appeared in Europe 39 thousand years ago, so the new discovery is forcing them to reconsider their views on the dispersal of modern humans. A study published in Nature. Until recently, scientists believed that Homo sapiens, which is also called the CRO-magnon began to displace the Neanderthals in Europe about 39 thousand years ago. Archaeologists believed that in southern Spain, this process was delayed, and the Neanderthals have gone there only 32 thousand years ago. However, during recent excavations in the cave, Bajadilla researchers from the University of Seville found that 45-43 thousand years ago there lived a CRO-magnon. Such a conclusion they did, after studying the tools that were found in

Marriage gave physical strength in the elderly This, however, is mainly due to socioeconomic indicators. British researchers found that elderly men and women who are married, physically stronger than their single, divorced or widowed peers: it was used data on the health and lives of more than 20 thousand of the British and Americans over the age of 50. In many ways, however, this is due to the relationship between physical abilities and socioeconomic status to married participants in the sample was higher. The article was published in the journal PLoS One. News10 the “wrong” advice from centenarians About the advantages of having a stable romantic partner (as in marriage or without) for physical and mental health is well known enough. Recently we wrote about the fact that the presence of a partner (both physical and in the mind) relax the physiological reaction of the organism in a stressful situation.

VR partners did not protect people from contagious yawning People act and feel in a virtual reality not as in real life. This is evident even where the difference seems inconsequential: as shown by the experimental infection of humans with yawning in the presence of a variety of “virtual analogs” of others, nothing prevents a yawn, better than the real people around. Even if it is not seen and not heard. Virtual reality has provided scientists new experimental opportunities. For example, in the experiment on studying of influence of behaviour of a group of people on a particular participant, you can not hire a dozen actors, and the use of computer models showing a particular behavior. It’s cheaper and more reliable in terms of reproducibility of experiments: software simulation can be easily run in other laboratories.

The best the huge black hole devouring our galaxy The researchers got the best the black hole in history. It managed to capture the image of Sagittarius A* — the supermassive black hole at the center of our galaxy, the milky Way. By itself, a black hole absorbs light so that to see her is almost impossible. However, the center of the galaxy (where lies the black hole) is full of matter which acts as a kind of frosted glass. According to Eduardo Rosa from the max Planck Institute, so scientists were able to detect the black hole itself. The resolution of the new picture is twice the resolution of previous, related study was published in the Astrophysical Journal. The researchers used 13 powerful telescopes around the world to capture images and teased its forthcoming publication from the beginning of January. According to New Scientist, astrophysicists have speculated that inside
