The mystery of the red rain of Kerala, India

It is possible for people to cry blood, but that a substance similar to this falls from the sky, as happened in India, is even more chilling.

A red phenomenon in India

What happened in the Indian region of Kerala between on July 25 and September 23, 2001 , seems to have no conclusive explanation for many.The rain that fell during those days was red.And it was not a casual event, because those precipitations lasted about two months, and the water, did not vary in hue at any time: it was scarlet, of a dark red that flooded streets and all that people that received between fear and expectation, a water of blood color.

Why was that phenomenon? Let's review all theories below, inviting you as always to give us your opinion .

The day the rain turned red

You may It seems amazing, but the phenomenon of the red rain is not new in India.It is known that in 1896 it already happened, but for the Indian government they were nothing more than spores of suspended algae, a single-celled microorganism able to offer that sudden coloration in the water that fell from the sky.

Godfrey Louis, a physicist at the Cochin University of Science and Technology, did not agree with this hypothesis.By bringing that water under the microscope He saw no trace of dust or sand, even less of seaweed spores.And what did they really see? Here comes the amazing thing: red cells , something similar to the microbes on Earth, but without DNA.Extraterrestrial matter? Let's go calmly and analyze all the information.These scientists tell us that the idea that a comet would have disintegrated in the atmosphere and splashed in the clouds with that strange matter, is a possibility.A rare possibility considering that those “globules red »without DNA, they should have been destroyed when they came into contact with rainwater.

Studies continued at Cardiff University, following precisely the theory of panspermia, that is, this red rain could to be in reality, living organic matter arrived from outer space. Something that for many, would also explain life on Earth.And the data is still amazing.In a publication of the "Technology Review", it was said that these cells, when exposed to temperatures of 121 degrees Celsius, reproduce.At room temperature, they are inert.All a mystery that for these scientists, continues to open multiple paths of study.

The mystery of the red rain of Kerala, India

Although in India they seem to be clear, the phenomenon of red rain has occurred several times, therefore, it cannot be explained through the theory of panspermia. Ministry of Health reassured the population informing that the red rain is due to a type of bacteria present in a type of algae of the species Trachelomonas .Normally they are on the ground and can acquire colors that range from red to green, but rarely rise to the atmosphere, due to the dense pollution in India, hence the color of the rain.The Institute of Nanotechnology of India reaffirms it with forcefulness and tranquility: it is nothing more than a single-celled microorganism belonging to the Protist Kingdom, known as Trachelomonas. Nothing more.

There is nothing strange about them, nothing extraterrestrial ...Although many still do not accept this idea.

Are older brothers more intelligent?

Throughout the years different analysts have thrown some hypothesis in relation to the intelligence of the children and the order in which they are born , but everything had remained in mere conjectures.Until now , when a group of researchers finally confirmed that older children are actually smarter than their little siblings. The first children are smarter A group of researchers from the University of Leipzig , Germany, determined that the firstborn are more intelligent than the later brothers.The intellectual value begins to descend with each new brother.Although the researchers clarify that although the order of the children can determine their intelligence , this aspect does not condition the child's personality. In order to reach This conclusion, the researchers studied and analyzed three databases from Germany, the United Kingdom and the United States .Aspects of vital importance were taken into account, such as family origin, size, socio-economic class and , ...

Why do we get red eyes in some flash photographs?

In Science Daily Online we once gave you 5 tips to go spectacular in the photographs.One of the things that most often bother us when we take a photo is to appear with the red eyes Why does this happen? In this article we tell you. Why do the eyes appear red in some photographs? The « red-eye effect » usually occurs when the flash is used at night or with a very dim light .The light emitted by the camera is reflected at the back of the retina and She's getting it.Why red? Because the light that comes back to the face is the reflection of the numerous blood vessels of a membrane called choroid that is in the retina, so it has that red hue.Quite disturbing. Those who have the dark eyes have less chance of appearing with red eyes because they may have enough dark pigment so that the reddish hue is not reflected. When does it appear? When we use flash and look directly at the camera lens and therefore its light is reflected directly in our retina. It sh...

Is it true that there is a "fifth taste"?

At school we have been taught that there are four basic flavors: sweet, salty, bitter and acid , but in recent years there has been a need to take into account a fifth flavor, which until the moment had been overlooked.They call it " Umami ", which in Japanese means something like "pleasant or tasty flavor". Although we have to make a nuance.There are many those who refuse to accept the existence of this fifth flavor.The reason? Because more than a flavor that we can all identify, the umami would be rather a perception, an indefinable sensation that does not abound too much in our food and that only chefs strive to seek to give their dishes an almost addictive flavor.Have you ever asked why Japanese food is so tasty ? Or why do we like french fries or snaks so much? Why most contain umami, or what is the same "monosodium glutamate". But what does the "Umami" taste like? Here comes the key question: what does the Umami taste like? Scie...

10 things you didn't know about living in space

Is there extraterrestrial life in the galaxy? It is almost certain that yes, although with certainty we can only affirm it on the surroundings of the Earth, where since the end of the 1950s there have been human beings coming and going in different space vehicles, or spending more or less long stays in stations and Space labs like the Skylab , the Mir station or the ISS . We invite you to know some curious facts about how is to live in an environment "far from this world", although not so much. 10 things you didn't know about living in space 1.In the International Space Station (ISS, by its acronym in English) you can see the sunrise 16 times a day .This can be fun at first, make you feel like the Little Prince in its asteroid, but it can eventually confuse you around the development of time and daily activities. The schedule at the ISS is based on Greenwich Mean Time (an intermediate hour between Londr it is, Houston and Moscow) and it is about performing a ...

Sometimes, it is much easier to let ourselves go, evading responsibilities, than to put means t...

North Pole and South Pole: 7 differences to know

At first glance, they may seem the same, but if we look in detail we will find differences that make them unique.The North Pole and South Pole represent the extremes of the planet we inhabit, those that suffer the most from global warming and those that have a unique beauty. In Science Daily Online we tell you 7 differences that you should know about the opposites of the Earth . North Pole and South Pole: 7 differences to know 1.Between Contains and oceans The North Pole is surrounded by sea and land , a part of the northernmost part of America and Europe are within the Arctic region.In contrast, The South has nothing but the waters of the Antartico Ocean , thick ice sheets and temperatures so low that some places do not melt during the summer.As a reference, the closest it is to southern Chile and Argentina. 2.With and without population Having more land around it and "bearable" temperatures, in e l North there are more people, flora and fauna, even Santa Clau...

The Smilodon, the fantastic "saber teeth"

The Smilodon. Few prehistoric creatures are so beautiful and impressive at the same time, like this unique feline better known as "saber teeth".Experts say more than belonging to the family of big cats like the tiger or the lion, the Smilodon is more like a red lynx. It was simply beautiful, it lived along the American continent at the end of the Pliocene and became extinct 10,000 years ago.reason? Due to the climatic change of our planet.As the temperature rose, the large dams, the large animals that used to feed: mammoths, horses, prehistoric bison... The smallest animals ran too much and the Smilodon was not a good runner.In addition, he had to face predators more skilled than them, as was the case with the giant wolves.That is, the change of the derived ecosystems by general warming , I have just defeated these wonderful animals, which, without a doubt, we would have loved to know.

Why do I see stars when I sneeze loudly?

Before moving on to the article we would like to remind you that we have launched a YouTube channel and that we would be very happy if you subscribed to watch our videos, you can click here–> Science Daily Online YouTube It can be annoying to watch things that aren't there, whether it's pink lights, shadows or elephants, but when people close their eyes, if they have a migraine or even sneeze, they can see a variety of ghostly lights and sparkles . What is happening? All these luminous visions are caused by the stimulation of the back of the eye, or the optic nerve, which transmits the experience of light to the brain . Inside our eyes is a thick gel, which keeps the eye in good condition.This gel can brush the retina, the part of the eye that creates image it is in our brain .When the brain receives a message from the retina, it interprets it as light.So if there is light or not entering the eye, any retinal stimulation will be interpreted as a spectacle of ...

Solar radiation: how does it affect you?

The sun is a source of health and beauty, but according to the frequency and duration of the exposure we make to solar radiation, the effects may be favorable or not so much.Remember that the effect of Sun is not immediate and can cause some problems that we will detail below. Red, reddish skin The skin redness after exposure to the sun , it can take up to 24 hours to appear, since that is the period of time that the blood vessels need to dilate and allow more blood to reach to the cells affected by the rays.Also, it is also what it takes for the skin to make the “ melanin ”, that is the pigment that darkens our skin. The radiations of the Sun and the ozone layer The radiations of the Sun that are received on the Earth's surface change as it passes through the Atmosphere.There are some radiations that are carriers of high energy content, such as gamma rays, UVC, UVB, etc.The effects of these radiations on humans depend on energy, that is, on the ability to pene...
