| Can any animals ACTUALLY smell fear? Posted: 03 Apr 2018 05:31 AM PDT I've heard it about numerous animals, but can are there any species with the ability to detect fear through scent? [link] [comments]  |

| [Physics] Why neutrons are uncharged? Why it's important?What happens if it does not exist? Posted: 03 Apr 2018 04:57 AM PDT Hydrogens don't have neutrons why other elements have it?what happens if we remove neutrons from other elements is it possible to do that? (Sorry for my grammar mistakes) :) [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 02 Apr 2018 10:21 PM PDT My thinking would be chemical boosters to exit earths atmosphere, and a nuclear/ion booster for deep space travel. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 02 Apr 2018 09:59 PM PDT I know that we are able to detect planets by measuring the light from stars when a planet passes in front of it. Though that is perhaps the only "real-time" event that I know of that we observe. What sort of activity in the cosmos can we watch in real-time? For example, since the Sombrero Galaxy has been found, has it rotated enough to reveal more of it's structure or appear exactly the same after all these years? Sorry if this seems like a painfully stupid question. [link] [comments]  |

| Is the empty space near the Sun (say, closer than Mercury) hot or cold? Posted: 02 Apr 2018 02:41 PM PDT I know that once you leave the atmosphere things get mad cold out there, and heat needs some kind of medium to propagate through(?). But I also know that the Sun is really, extremely hot, and the heat on earth I presume has to get here somehow. If you were floating in space near the sun, would you burn to a crisp or freeze (after you suffocate, obvs)? If it's hot, what is the heat propagating through? [link] [comments]  |
| What, atomically, happens when electricity arcs and produces light? Posted: 02 Apr 2018 03:48 PM PDT I understand that when electrons are forced to change energy state in an atom this produces light of specific energy levels, is it something similar, or have I got that bit wrong as well?

| How aware are humans of our surroundings when we sleep? Posted: 02 Apr 2018 08:02 AM PDT I ask this because I spent the last few nights sleeping in a hotel room, and for whatever reason- I woke up every few hours. When I'm sleeping in my own bed, I rarely wake up until the alarm sounds. Another thing that I noticed is that if I fall asleep in my bed, I can roll around and end up in weird positions or on the other side of the bed, yet if I fall asleep on a bench or shallow couch, I wont roll off and fall on the floor. These occurrences lead me to believe that we must have some senses active while we're sleeping that remains responsible for sensing our surroundings. [link] [comments]  |

| How do Economists Calculate how much Currency to Mint? Posted: 02 Apr 2018 08:36 AM PDT For given countries, are there 'go to' formulas used for Economists to calculate how much new money the government should be minting at a given moment? What kind of variables does it operate on, and if there are more than one, what are the pros and cons of each? Seems like a very difficult problem that must have been solved to some degree by someone at some point. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 02 Apr 2018 02:28 PM PDT As I understand it, the universe is as big as however far it is to the furthest we can detect light from, multiplied by 2 to give us the diameter. Link: http://go.newsfusion.com/nasa-news/item/5561790 [link] [comments]  |
| Why do storms on our solar systems outer planets last so long? Posted: 02 Apr 2018 01:08 PM PDT Title. Earth's toughest storms seem to only last a few weeks. But storms on the outer most planets have storms which have lasted for years or decades. What is so different about Earth? [link] [comments]  |

| Posted: 02 Apr 2018 10:53 AM PDT The train is 8 carriages long with an electric locomotive at the front end. Each carriage looks to have about sixty seats each, each seat has with 2 standard European 240V sockets (two sockets under each pair of seats, two in front). Doing the maths, that works out to 1920 sockets. While I haven't tried to overload the capacity, I forgot to bring any high-wattage appliances for my journey, and so did the rest of the passengers. So, is it possible to make the conductors and staff at least notice something if every single socket is in use? Just a thought. [link] [comments]  |

| How do contraceptive pills work when taken consecutively? Posted: 02 Apr 2018 12:23 PM PDT As I was studying biology today and exactly the moment I was looking at how contraceptive pills work, my dad looked over and started asking me to explain it...then I realized I have the basic knowledge of how contraceptive pills work but haven't grasped the full, intricated details. At least not how they work with the hormones levels. Then, my mother starting asking about taking the pills consecutively, because she notices I sometimes take them two packs after each other. I did not have an answer to it, hence I am wondering the exact procedure when I take them back to back without a stop. [link] [comments]  |
