New headline: Scientists find windsurfing planet!

This obviously isn't scientific research, but this is my partial theory for why in states where you can vote by mail up to election day (so long as it's postmarked), the late ballots tend to be better for Democrats. (Not saying this as an insult, I'm a pretty scattershot person with left-of-center views who tends to get my mail-in ballot in on the later end myself.)

More health issues than we can quantify, that's why a huge part of manned spaceflight has been relentlessly studying the effects of reduced G's on the human body. To say the least, EVERYTHING starts to go south after just months in a reduced g environment, we don't know how bad it will get or how lethal it can be upwards of several years

I caught Covid for the first time after 4 shots and all I had was a scratchy throat for a couple days. It’s probably way safer to catch it after all the vaccines

Just needs to be like a modern day cathedral

Tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis are all bacterial and a couple of the vaccines target the toxin produced by the bacteria and not the bacteria. I asked about viral vaccines.

Measles and HPV are either slow moving or long lasting infections which allow B cells to restart antibodies production over a week of so to stop the infection. They do not need LLPC to be fee effective.

Dry food has no moisture in it, and includes lots of garbage filler like ash and other byproducts. Cats are desert creatures who have evolved with little instinct to seek distinct water sources. Most of their hydration would have come from prey liquids like blood. Without it, cats are slowly ticking kidney failure bombs. I have given mine wet food for years, and at 15 they both physically look no older than 4, kidneys in great shape, have been able to skip dentals for 2-3 years because their teeth have been in such good shape. One is getting a dental in 2 weeks because she may have a fissure in a tooth, unrelated to generic tartar build up. Vet broke a bit of tartar off the other with her finger and joked that was his dental for the year.

On the other hand, every other cat I’ve had was raised on dry food only and all were dead by 4-10, except 1. I’ve had many cats. Shame I was a child for most of them and had no control over how we fed them.

Understandably. I’d also completely glaze over the subtext that aliens exist if they had their own ice cream that we’d recreated.

I feel like we really missed an opportunity here not calling it wolf 359

Yeah but I’d still rather get a vaccine every year than risk giving covid to my 80+ smoking father.

Currently we cannot send humans that far, but who knows in 1000, or 10000 years from now?

It's about the long term survival of humanity.

More than likely. Dry kibble is terrible for cats, even the premium stuff. And then, most of the food is too high in phosphorous, so they get crystals in their urinary tract. I'm spending around a hundred bucks a month to feed my cat, and had I known all this before I got him, I probably wouldn't have. Cost me a couple grand in vet bills to find out, too.

This sounds like someone trying to scientifically justify the whole "people who don't agree with me are mentally ill" bs. Or wanted a way to get their kids to stop trying to change their beliefs.

This is basically eugenics.

Partly why not X has to do with trial design early on. It’s harder to do large trials for different regimens. Most people believe the original two courses were too close together though.

I loved this article. So cool.

All the followers of Bokonon say yeah!

It would be nice if we used different words for habitable for humans, and habitable for some kind of life in general.

But then no one would click. I guess that could be the title for the chapter in the 22nd century history book about this era.

Smallpox isn’t that long. I think it is 5-10 years.

I think that would cause a lot of health issues. Our bodies evolved with this gravity and atmospheric pressures. It might be nice for an afternoon though.

Imagine how much taller we’d grow to be without the oppression of gravity?!
