  • Ultimate Thread of Awesome!

    Here you will find me constantly posting about things that fascinate me,and have a extreme high concentration of awesome involving nature,science, the cosmos, technology, and many other tid bits of omfg thats cool!

    Feel free to share what you have found on the internet!

    First things to be served up will be the stuff I already shared! Rather than make a post for each new bit of awesome I stumble across on the internet, from here on out you can find them here....


    "First GEARS found in nature!"

    I first read about this over at Popular Mechanics, and shared it with the Quakeone.com community back in 2013.

    In the linked article above, it was stated that these bugs are experiencing around 400g forces, but according to this guy from Cambridge University, its closer to between 500 and 700 g forces. Holy shit! Let's put that into perspective..... according to link here over at an official NASA.gov website , the most g forces that an astronaut experiences during launch to escape the earths gravity , is 3 G FORCES.......

      While this is not new it sure is cool.
      As part of an effort to improve treatments for life-threatening illnesses, a team of scientists have created rabbits that glow in the dark.

      Full article
      http://www.theguardian.com/world/201...its-scientists
      I ran across this while researching the chimera that the DARPA were creating for their newest armor technology,They have crossed a goat with a spider to produce a hi strength filament for the thread to make it.The farm they keep these spygoats at is in Montreal so it is outside the control of Congress.To make things even scarier the tech has been expanded to private industry and now is even being developed at a university near you.
      BioSteel was a trademark name for a high-strength based fiber material made of the recombinant spider silk-like protein extracted from the milk of transgenic goats, made by Nexia Biotechnologies, and later by the Randy Lewis lab of the University of Wyoming and Utah State University.[1] It is reportedly 7-10 times as strong as steel if compared for the same weight, and can stretch up to 20 times its unaltered size without losing its strength properties. It also has very high resistance to extreme temperatures, not losing any of its properties within -20 to 330 degrees Celsius.

        Thanks for the participation! and YES! I totally agree that it's pretty damned epic (or scary depending on how you look at it) that they have given bioluminescence to animals that would otherwise not have it! I tried to rep/+ you for the added dose of awesome , but it's bitching at me that I must spread it around else where before giving you more.

        WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT! ARG!

          I hope this fits into your awesomeness category... not trying to spam your thread. We have had our second ever crop circle here in the Johnson City suburb of Gray, TN. This kind of stuff fascinates me... but then again, I'm easily amused. Article Clicky I do believe there is more out there after we're done here... just not real sure what it is yet.

            I modified my OP to be more encompassing. Hey I reserved the right to swat anything out of this thread, so I swatted a bunch of my own words!

            Anyone can post what they find awesome! I sir, find crop circles, to be awesome. I also find it super-awesome that you are so close to my home town area (Smyth County,VA)....we was practically neighbors for a looong time.

                      That Arrested! Mugshot gallery link from that page is awesome.
                      =)

                      You can guess what they were caught for by just looking at the pics.

                      I haven't seen anything like that before, is it a kind of government name-and-shame sorta thing?

                        I learned a long long time ago to do the paper trick.As a construction worker we have to use Porta Jons a lot.I used to toss a piece of wood in it for the longest time but had none one day and resorted to TP.The board ALWAYS works ,the TP not so much.Believe me if you get that blue juice sprayed up ur anus backwards,you will be a firm believer in Wood.
