Science behind you'll do daily

      Everything in the universe happens for a reason, and science is man's way of explaining why these things happen.While science cannot PROVE everything, it CAN make educated theories, based on similar scientific studies, as to why things occur. Brushing         From sour to bitter: how particle size impacts  coffee  flavour. Scientifically speaking, brewing  coffee  is the process of extracting soluble flavour compounds from roasted and ground  coffee  beans. Larger, coarse particles are more permeable, which means the hot water flows more quickly through them Coffee From sour to bitter: how particle size impacts  coffee  flavour.

10 interesting space facts

  Space facts   Full exploration of the planets: Scientists have been exploring space for over 60 years and the effort has been certainly paid off all the planets. They almost know about every planet including the dwarf planets (Pluto and ceres). Most of the exploration's were done by NASA'S Voyager program which started in 1977. Vouager 1 and 2 collected the information's of planets and moons. Giant Water Reservoir: In 2011 astronauts discovered the giant water reservoir simply floating in space around a super massive black hole called quasar. Water vapour's are found throughout the universe, but this particular reservoirs holds 140 trillion times more as water in earth's ocean. But it is 12 billion light years away from the earth. Sound in Space: Sounds are produced by vibrating the air molecules in the Earth. But in the other planets sounds travel through the moon, but in  space there is Nothing. There is only Vaccum, but scientists believe space has some gas cl...

Titanoba

  Titanoboa      Titanoboa is an extinct genus of very large snakes that lived in what is now La Guajira in northeastern Colombia. They could grow up to 12.8 m long and reach a weight of 1,135 kg. Fossils of Titanoboa have been found in the Cerrejón Formation, and date to around 58 to 60 million years ago       Jason Bourque, a student at the University of Florida, was the first one that realized it was a snake; we had thought it was a crocodile because of its size. One would think that open-pit coal mining would destroy fossils.        Titanoboa  was first described in 2009, some five years after it was excavated from rocks exposed at the Cerrejón coal mine in Colombia, which lies to the west of the mouth of Lake Maracaibo. The remains of approximately 30 individuals have been recovered. The majority  are  adults, but some juveniles have been found.      Using the length-weight ratios of a rock python...

Technology

                      The best definition of technology is the study and transformation of techniques, tools, and machines created by humans. Technology allows humans to study and evolve the physical elements that are present in their lives, the branch of knowledge that deals with the creation and use of technical means and their interrelation with life, society, and the environment, drawing upon such subjects as industrial arts,engineering, applied science, and pure science.     Types of Technology          1) Network 2) Information 3) Internet of Things 4) Sensors 5) Energy 6) Transportation 7) Architectural 8) Agriculture 9) Entertainment and Media 10) Industrial 11) Medical Technology 12) Clothing technology 13) Science 14) Assistive Technology 15) Robotics 16) Space 17) Artificial Intelligence         Advantages of technology           Sharing ...

5 Rare species of birds in the world

                        Rare species are species with small populations. Many move into the endangered or vulnerable category if the negative factors affecting them continue to operate.      Scientists estimate that 150-200 species of plant, insect, bird and mammal become extinct every 24 hours. This is nearly 1,000 times the “natural” or “background” rate and, say many biologists, is greater than anything the world has experienced since the vanishing of the dinosaurs nearly 65m years ago. KAKAPO          The kakapo, also called owl parrot, is a species of large, flightless, nocturnal, ground-dwelling parrot of the super-family Strigopoidea, endemic to New Zealand. It has finely blotched yellow-green plumage, a distinct facial disc, a large grey beak, short legs, large feet, and relatively short wings and tail. The kakapo is critically endangered; the total know...

Types of lions

Types of lions       The lion is a species in the family Felidae and a member of the genus Panthera. Lions live 8m groups called pride and find a place to live for their lives. There are various sub species on lion according to their appearance. Barbary lions                   The Barbary lion was a panthera leo leo, their population in North Africa that is regionally extinct today. This population accrued in Barbary coastal regions of Megrabh from the Atlas mountain  to Egypt. The only Barbaty lions left in the world are in the zoo. Barbary lion is the biggest lion of all. Its length ranging between 9.8 feet and 10.8 feet and weigh of over 200 kg. West African lion                    West African lions are a critically endangered lions with an estimated 400 remaining and strong evidence of ongoing declines. About 90% of these lions live in west Africa's largest protect are...
