Watch it. Tarantola's favorite things in life are devnull, trollpatrol, and fanboy. His ban hammer is swifter than Zatoichi's sword. Swear to god, he bans like half the comments on his posts. Makes Mr. Diaz look even handed.

It is because water absorbs red wavelengths of the visible light spectrum at ~100x that of blue light. When the rainbow is lit up strikingly red, there is still a lot of water (droplets) in the air and you're seeing those droplets lit up with red light wavelengths.

Rainbows. Here's something you might not have known: If after it rains the rainbow is very reddish, it's probably going to rain again in about an hour. If it's quite blue it's not likely to rain again.

Wow, the amount of power needed to propel 11lbs from a dead stop 30' into the air is pretty intense!

Jesus, that thing is ported like 1/2" from the round. What is the muzzle velocity for a 230 gr.? Like 250 fps?!

"it becomes pale and loses its protective algae coating. In turn, that makes it more susceptible to damage from pollution and human interaction, which causes it to die off completely."

I could do this without much problemo, maybe. I eat Scotch Bonnets on a regular basis, and imbibe whisk(e)y second only to water.

$600 for a repackaged window unit?! That's crazy talk.

Giz you just don't get it. Us home toasters prefer the our fine imported breads to be slowly lowered and raised. It allows for a more seamless heat transition that helps develop those bold toasted notes without being overly harsh or bitter.

Force in a Can. Great product. Pricey though.

I need to know the aftermath of this, so that I can either laugh or look horrified as I show it to other ppl.

Dr. Neil deGrasee Tyson has the rare ability to thread together science and humanities with a passion and conviction that really stirs people. He manages to remove the disconnect between science and the masses, and always pushes the point that this isn't about goal x or goal y, this is about who we are as a people.…

Very interesting story. It should be noted that spicules are not bone, but to act as a skeletal system in poriferans. There is siliceous, calcareous, and spongin type spicules in modern sponges depending on the species. These are the first spicules, and thereby the "hard parts" documented in the fossil record. Likely…

Not "bone" structure, to be technical about it. Modern poriferans have "spicules" that do act as a kind of skeleton, inasmuch as they provide support. But bone has another meaning. These are the earliest spicules ever found, likely calcareous (or less likely siliceous) spicules.

The top view shot isn't overwhelming, but remember static shots are just that. In video or IRL you see the sculpted nature of a body. And even pretty radical attempts to shape bodies like Vox has done are a fraction as sculpted as this.

Not planning around a neap or spring tide has proven deadly more than once. See the Battle of Tarawa for another example. Had a 2' tidal range instead of a 5' range, meant Marines had to wade in under heavy fire and no supply for four days.

Not bad, the Sinuous site say 2150 for the model pictured in this article.
