Since there isn't any resistance in space, is reaching lightspeed possible? Posted: 30 Jun 2021 12:24 AM PDT Without any resistance deaccelerating the object, the acceleration never stops. So, is it possible for the object (say, an empty spaceship) to keep accelerating until it reaches light speed? If so, what would happen to it then? Would the acceleration stop, since light speed is the limit? [link] [comments] |
Do semi aquatic animals get ticks and lice? Posted: 30 Jun 2021 05:10 AM PDT Hey all, so I saw a video of a platypus scratching itself and it got me thinking. Can they get ticks and lice? Since they would be underwater most of the time, wouldn't the ticks and lice drown? Also can water living mammals get ticks and lice? [link] [comments] |
Ask Anything Wednesday - Engineering, Mathematics, Computer Science Posted: 30 Jun 2021 07:00 AM PDT Welcome to our weekly feature, Ask Anything Wednesday - this week we are focusing on Engineering, Mathematics, Computer Science Do you have a question within these topics you weren't sure was worth submitting? Is something a bit too speculative for a typical /r/AskScience post? No question is too big or small for AAW. In this thread you can ask any science-related question! Things like: "What would happen if...", "How will the future...", "If all the rules for 'X' were different...", "Why does my...". Asking Questions: Please post your question as a top-level response to this, and our team of panellists will be here to answer and discuss your questions. The other topic areas will appear in future Ask Anything Wednesdays, so if you have other questions not covered by this weeks theme please either hold on to it until those topics come around, or go and post over in our sister subreddit /r/AskScienceDiscussion , where every day is Ask Anything Wednesday! Off-theme questions in this post will be removed to try and keep the thread a manageable size for both our readers and panellists. Answering Questions: Please only answer a posted question if you are an expert in the field. The full guidelines for posting responses in AskScience can be found here. In short, this is a moderated subreddit, and responses which do not meet our quality guidelines will be removed. Remember, peer reviewed sources are always appreciated, and anecdotes are absolutely not appropriate. In general if your answer begins with 'I think', or 'I've heard', then it's not suitable for /r/AskScience. If you would like to become a member of the AskScience panel, please refer to the information provided here. Past AskAnythingWednesday posts can be found here. Ask away! [link] [comments] |
How Do We Know What Amino Acids Are Made Of? Posted: 30 Jun 2021 05:46 AM PDT They're too small to photograph. Are there some sort of specialized indicators we use? [link] [comments] |
Is it possible to have element number 119? Posted: 30 Jun 2021 08:13 AM PDT This issue exists because there are only 7 electron shells and the electrons of element 118 already occupy all the shells, so if it can be synthesized, this element would be positively charged (causing that there are no neutral atoms, only ions) or will an 8 be created layer?

Can solar panels on satellites reflect bright light back to Earth? Posted: 29 Jun 2021 08:17 PM PDT So about 15 years ago my family and I were stargazing and started spotting satellites. One we spotted suddenly became incredibly bright, like daylight bright, then dissipated after a few seconds The best theory we have is that the satellite was able to reflect sunlight from beyond our horizon down to us. Is this a viable theory? If not what else could have done this? [link] [comments] |

What happens to all the candle wax? Posted: 29 Jun 2021 11:13 AM PDT What happens to candle wax once it's burned? If I understand correctly, our sense of smell is based off of small compounds being inhaled. So with that being said, are we just inhaling wax particles? Is this bad over the long term? Can you burn too many candles in your house? [link] [comments] |

Posted: 29 Jun 2021 03:54 AM PDT I've had to go low fiber diets in my life. I was told one thing that would ease digestion was to thoroughly chew my food. I've seen health advice that smoothies, ones made in the home with no excess sugar, aren't as healthy as eating the fruit and drinking the liquid base separately because the blender shreds the fibers to be too small. What does a blender do that a good thorough chew wouldn't? [link] [comments] |
