| Can the coronavirus mutate to be LESS transmissible ? Posted: 05 Sep 2021 05:12 PM PDT It seems like with every variant it gets more transmissible, is it possible to go the other way around ? [link] [comments]  |
| Would radioactive antimatter have anti-radiation? Posted: 05 Sep 2021 04:36 AM PDT Since we're able to make antimatter of various elements, if we made antimatter of a radioactive element, how would what it radiates differ from normal radioactive material? [link] [comments]  |
| Why does the Hawaiian islands magma hot spot stay put as the crust moves over it? Posted: 05 Sep 2021 04:57 PM PDT Ive always heard that the Hawaiian islands were formed from a hot spot in the mantle that pushes magma through the crust. The pacific plate then moves over that and a chain of islands is born. But it can't be that simple. The mantle is liquid churning magma, so what makes the mantles weather under Hawaii consistently hotter than average for millions of years? Why is this so consistent over such a huge time scale?

| Posted: 05 Sep 2021 09:01 AM PDT I can't recall the last time I heard about a case of polio; and I'd say the same about TB but there are adverts on TV that warn about TB as a side effect -- which is a completely separate question. I also know that malaria programs are making good progress, but they're a long way from "eradication in the wild". Thanks! [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 05 Sep 2021 10:01 AM PDT Greetings. I have some general questions about fluorescent antibody tests and rabies. Is it possible to get a false negative result from such a test? I read online that the rabies virus is very susceptible to temperature. How long in a deceased host can the virus survive? Does temperature affect this? Is it possible for the brain tissue of the host to be viable to test but for the rabies virus to be destroyed due to temperature - resulting in a false negative result? Thank [link] [comments]  |
| How exactly does graphene make concrete/any material stronger? Posted: 05 Sep 2021 08:48 PM PDT I have little to no knowledge of materials science/engineering but from normal graphene, it seems that it's structure gives it its strength. However through whatever method graphene is being mixed with concrete or any other materials, how is that making the materials stronger? Do the graphene form special bonds in the material or something? [link] [comments]  |
| how much does the isotropic expansion and contraction of the Earth change the radius? Posted: 05 Sep 2021 02:36 AM PDT A video I recently watched casually states that the Earth expands and contracts on a 20.5 minute cycle and I had some trouble finding anything on this myself. I'd love to hear the physics behind this and I am most curious about how much the size of the Earth changes during these cycles. [link] [comments]  |
| How efficient are modern steam turbines compared to triple expansion steam engines of the 1890s? Posted: 05 Sep 2021 02:35 PM PDT Specifically those related to steamships, if at all possible. [link] [comments]  |
| Why do all celestial bodies have some degree of spin/rotation to them? Posted: 05 Sep 2021 01:02 AM PDT As far as i understand everything in the universe is spinning. Why isnt anything rotationless? Does the universe itself have some kind of spin to it as far as we can tell? [link] [comments]  |
| How do ISS and space agencies protect against cosmic rays ? Posted: 04 Sep 2021 10:11 PM PDT Hello, I recently watched Veritasium video about cosmic rays and the fact they can induce bits flipping inside electronic chipset. I also understood that this more susceptible to happen the closer you're to space, because you're not as well protected by earth's atmosphere. I would like to know if there are some technology built-in ISS or spaceships to prevent these cosmic rays to alter astronaut DNA or binary string in electronics. Thank you [link] [comments]  |
| Did plastics exist in the universe before we created them? Posted: 04 Sep 2021 04:43 PM PDT Did molecules conventionally known as plastics such as polyamide, polyethylene, etc exist in the universe before they were synthesized by humans? Which ones did and which ones didn't? [link] [comments]  |

| Physiologically, how are memories stored? Posted: 04 Sep 2021 10:54 AM PDT This may be a stupid question, but what's the biomolecular basis of memory storage? Like if SSDs store bits with nand gates that retain their charge, what is it that the brain "stores" to reference for memory recall? Also how are these molecules/whatever they are able to retrigger old stimuli? [link] [comments]  |
