Play Video: Why are these #frogs such clumsy jumpers?

Scientists have figured out why some miniaturized frogs from Brazil are such clumsy jumpers. A 2022 study published in Science Advances reveals that among adult vertebrates, members of the genus Brachycephalus have the smallest known semicircular canals – the part of the inner ear necessary for maintaining balance and spatial orientation. The diminutive size of these canals results in low sensitivity to angular acceleration, preventing the frogs from controlling their posture as they prepare to land. VIDEO CREDIT: RICHARD L.

In order to withstand the crashing waves, mussels have strong filaments called byssal threads to help them stick to rocky surfaces with surprising strength. When needed, the bivalves can also release these threads with seemingly little effort.

Play Video: Turns out goldfish are good drivers #science #animalintelligence

An unlikely automobile is bringing new meaning to the phrase “go fish.” Scientists put a fish tank on wheels to test whether goldfish (Carassius auratus) can navigate as well on land as they can in water. The goldfish go-cart uses the laser sensing technology lidar, an onboard camera, and motion detection software to track the fish’s location in the tank. When it swims toward a wall with its nose pointed outward, the vehicle rolls in the same direction.

In 2006, husband and wife team Duncan Lorimer and Maura McLaughlin discovered a enigmatic signal from space, known as a fast radio burst. Astronomers have been searching the cosmos for strange signals like this so-called Lorimer Burst for more than 50 years, ever since astronomer Frank Drake convened a secretive meeting of a group of scientists calling themselves the Order of the Dolphin. #ScienceChannel #SpacesDeepestSecrets About Space's Deepest Secrets A few generations ago, traveling to the Moon was hard to imagine, and going beyond the Moon was a pipe dream. Today there is a new breed of explorer, tasked with going deep into space to unlock and reveal first-ever views of alien worlds and cosmic bodies far beyond anyone's imagination. These men and women have pushed their ingenuity and curiosity beyond the limits to uncover some of the most-groundbreaking findings in the history of space exploration.
