| Ask Anything Wednesday - Physics, Astronomy, Earth and Planetary Science Posted: 22 Jun 2022 07:00 AM PDT Welcome to our weekly feature, Ask Anything Wednesday - this week we are focusing on Physics, Astronomy, Earth and Planetary 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 closely related are Jaguar and Leopards? Posted: 22 Jun 2022 02:55 AM PDT I understand that they both belong to the Panthera genus, but are they any more closely related than to their other cousins like lions and tigers? Or did they just happen to have evolved similarly in terms of looks? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 22 Jun 2022 06:02 AM PDT Last ice age in Norhern Europe ended some ~10 000 years ago. Agriculture was developed around the same time, and the area of Fertice Crescent in Middle East is often pointed out here. In present day this area is rather dry, except the areas in Turkey and the river banks in Iran, Iraq and Egypt. What are the estimates what kind of climate there was in those areas 10 000 years ago? They were probably much more fertile due to lower temperature. I would also guess that a large ice cap in Norhern Europe would have lowered the temperature even more, and also affected on the precipitation in the area. [link] [comments] |
| how would a modern day person likely fare against spanish flu? Posted: 22 Jun 2022 04:58 AM PDT Would it be as deadly as in the past? Would it be milder? Would we be able to immediately deal with it or there is no specific vaccine or medication? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 21 Jun 2022 04:01 PM PDT And if so, is there a chance it may thrive and/or impact the local environment in any way? [link] [comments] |
