5 scientific projects in which man made God

Hi Science Daily Online ! Before reading the article we would like you to know a new way to discover our curious world, through Youtube ! We have a channel that we would love to be part of.You can subscribe and get to know it here-> YouTube Science Daily Online!

Although the history of science goes back to the very origins of the human civilization, 6,000 years ago, we can really talk about an era dominated by science, or a scientific-technical civilization , since the 18th century, that is, for less than 300 years; However, this period has been sufficient to generate an extraordinary development and to open fields of knowledge in which sometimes man made of God, as in the 5 we discussed below.

5 scientific projects in that man made of God

1.Creation of interstellar dust

In 2014 NASA tried to create interstellar dust simulating the conditions that occur in the proximity of a red star when it is dying.For this experiment, NASA researchers tried to reproduce, in a special chamber, a space of absolute emptiness and extreme temperatures in which a stellar dust could emerge.

5 scientific projects in which man made God

In this experiment man made of God because he intended to recreate the origins of matter-as something comes out of nowhere-and therefore, of the planets and est rellas.As a result, some observable grains could be created through electron microscopes , but there is still much to know and understand.

2.He also made God by changing the weather

There is increasing certainty that the gradual increase in temperature on Earth and the catastrophic events that accompany it, are directly responsible for a human activity that until a few decades ago was unconscious, although it is no longer possible justification after ignorance, or the argument that it is a natural process.

One of the most dangerous proposals to reverse this situation is called geoengineering , and would consist in manipulating environmental processes to eliminate carbon dioxide and solar radiation.Luckily, they are still technologically unworkable.

3.Genetic manipulation of insects

The search for an effective way to fight malaria or malaria, a disease that affects ci Among millions of human beings in much of the planet, I have led researchers at the University of Irvine, California, to genetically manipulate a mosquito that transmits this disease to make it reject the bacteria.

This trait could be transmitted when reproduced , and if done in large quantities, it could eventually end the disease.If successful, this technique could be used with other insects that carry diseases for plants, pets and humans.But this intervention at the genetic level could bring unexpected consequences, such as of creating a more dangerous disease, transmitted by a stronger carrier.

4.Production of "alien" beings

Another investigation in which man made of God, but perhaps of an irresponsible god, it was in the creation of a living being with a different DNA that of life on Earth.The deoxyribonucleic acid, better known as DNA, is composed of two chains, or two base pairs, in all known life forms on Earth, but recently a group of scientists took a bacterium from e.coli and added a third base synthetically developed, without the bacteria rejecting it .

By doing this operation they created an "alien" species , and the terrifying possibility of developing a powerful biological weapon.

5.Create artificial life

Another occasion in which man made God was in an investigation developed over 15 years by Dr.Craig Venter, published in the journal Science in 2010, and describing how he and his team developed synthetic life from chemical substances .

5 scientific projects in which man made God

The scientists copied the genetic code of a small bacterium, mycoplasma genitalium , and replicated it, modifying it, in a cell that was previously "emptied" of DNA, creating a completely new and capable organism to reproduce.This technique could be used to create bacteria that feed on contaminating products, or to develop vaccines; but it could also serve to develop new biological weapons.

Certainly, the fears surrounding the incredible power that scientific knowledge has given to humans remain the same as those expressed by Mary Shelley when she wrote Frankenstein (1818), because every time man made of God, he also made a demon.

What do you think? Meanwhile, review our article on other scientific experiments with terrible consequences.

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 ...

The mystery of the fatuous fires

Fatty fires. They are talked about in many cultures, countries and corners of the world.They are, in general, small and flame-like lights that arise in the most unexpected scenarios.Floating fires blue, yellow and red. But where do you usually see them? What are these curious scenarios in which they say so-called fatuous fires arise? In cemeteries and in humid places, near rivers or swamps and always at dawn or dusk. Why are they? Are they perhaps chemical reactions of some compounds in decomposition , such as dead animals? Let's look at the subject in a little more detail, inviting you as always to give us your opinions and experiences. What are the fiery fires? Scientists seem to be clear.Fatty fires (ignis fatuus) are actually something normal and explainable.It would basically be about sudden inflammations caused by phosphorus.The fact that they make their appearance in cemeteries or swamps is precisely because in these areas are abundant substances in full d...

Leon Jellyfish Jellyfish | Meet this sea monster

The ocean is a place as fantastic as unknown to man, in fact, we know much more about space than the depths of the sea, although over time we have been finding out more and more about what lives beneath the surface.It is also an unfinished investigation, which gives us to think about magical, almost mythological issues, such as giant squid or Craquen himself, which over time are discovered not as fanciful as we thought.Well, among those fantastic animals is the Leon mane jellyfish, the largest species of jellyfish known so far and that has not stopped being great news on social networks for its spectacular characteristics. Well , we have to tell you, in advance, that the discovery of the lion's jellyfish jellyfish is not a thing of yesterday or the day before yesterday, this species has been known for a long time.However, from Science Daily Online we were investigating its characteristics a little teristicas and we were quite impressed , which is why we wanted to make an arti...

Tricks that highly motivated people use to achieve their goals

When we talk about motivation, we talk about that desire that drives us and moves us towards the achievement of our desires and goals.When we are really motivated, it is very easy to stay focused on what we want to achieve, and not easily get discouraged from those inconveniences that may arise.Because we know that we all need a little motivation in our lives, we tell you some tricks that highly motivated people use to always keep their minds and spirits aimed at the goal. Don't miss it! These are some tricks of highly motivated people to achieve their goals They are clear about their reasons They say that knowledge is power.It is not enough to know what, but why, that way you really internalize your reasons and you can get that knowledge to drive you.You must have very clear the reasons why you are pursuing that particular goal or lifestyle. A good trick at this point could be to write the reasons for achieving that goal and consult them when you feel you need a m...

Manage your fears | The RIA method

In the following article we want to talk to you about controlling your fears.Fear is something destructive that, although it exists to keep us alert to possible dangers, usually has not so beneficial consequences.Fear of speaking in public, on a first date to a job interview, and many other situations in which fear is our worst enemy because it usually blocks us. So the next time you have to control your fears, you should follow the researcher's advice of fear Mary Poffenroth and her RIA method that we will explain below. RIA method to manage your fears When we talk about controlling your fears we don't always refer to the sensation you can have when being on the edge of a cliff or facing a wild beast.The researcher Poffenroth explains in her investigation that fear presents itself basically in two ways; real and fictitious fear.The real fear comes from a real threat, a threat against your life, as we said before, a precipice, a wild beast threatening us, a thief who s...

Two meter penguins is it possible?

Penguins .Animals with an endearing air that always make us smile, that awaken that tender feeling when they see their way of walking or when they discover how they take care of their young.you have the occasional stuffed animal at home, or it is even possible that you are a fan of the funny «Penguins of Madagascar». But would you have the same feeling if the penguins measured 2 meters? They would be just as beautiful, there is no doubt about that, but perhaps we would see it with more fear, almost as a threat.So, is it true that there are penguins of such dimensions? Not at all.But we have to make a small nuance: "they existed." In a preterite time, very, very preterite, right in the Upper Eocene , that is, 36 million years ago. The amazing Inkayaku The first physical testimonies of the existence of the giant penguins are in Peru, right in the Paracas National Reserve .It was in 2008 when the remains of this exceptional animal were found.It was a complete skeleto...

What does it say about you to be more cats or more dogs? This research tells you

Do you like cats or dogs more? This is a very common question when talking about pets.And although it seems that preferring one or the other says nothing about us, the truth is that scientific studies on this particular show that deciding on one or another type of pet manifests our way of being.Far from stereotypes, researchers at Facebook set out to analyze the millions of data they handle on the topic of pets and have reached some interesting conclusions about those who prefer the Sweet company of a dog or a cat. What does it say about you to be more cats or more dogs? Really are the owners of dogs so sociable, outgoing, responsible and friendly? And are cat owners, are they more creative, lonely, urban and moody? Facebook has more than 1,500 million users worldwide, being able to know their tastes, interests and social and family circles.To answer these questions about the character of those who prefer dogs and those who prefer cats, their researchers have analyzed the da...

Do you want to have lucid dreams? A study explains how to get it

Who has not imagined to control what it sounds ? Taking the course and taking the dream where you want it is what, apparently, people who have lucid dreams can do.A recent study explains that there are guidelines and techniques that can be followed to get to have that kind of dreams , do you accompany us to find out how to have lucid dreams? The study that explains how to get lucid dreams The lucid dream is one in which the sleeper becomes aware that he is playing while he is still in that process and has the ability to control that experience .It can happen at the moment we go from wakefulness to sleep, and we know that we are ringing for the bodily sensations we have, or during the dream itself.In the latter case, for some reason we "wake up" within the dream and have the option to follow inside or really wake up. Psychologists believe that the health of some of their patients could improve if they could take the reins of your dreams .For years there ...
