Louis Renault et André Citroen - Histoire Immédiate - France3 Las otras caras de la “Marcha del progreso”; la evolución vista desde 99 diferentes perspectivas Las parodias están a la orden del día en nuestros días, la evolución no podía quedar al margen de estos guiños. “99 Steps of Progress” es un proyecto de parodias ilustradas, creadas por el colectivo de artistas parisinos conocidos como Maentis. Este grupo de franceses decidieron darle un giro a la afamada ilustración conocida precisamente como “La marcha del progreso” en la que, a manera de infografía se muestra la evolución del hombre desde sus incios hasta la aparición del Homo Sapiens. La “Marcha del progreso” es una de las más famosas e identificables ilustraciones científicas. en ella se condensan alrededor de 25 millones de años de evolución humana. sin embargo en esta versión alternativa, se tocan otros temas además de los meros cambios biologicos que nuestra especie ha sufrido a lo largo de las eras.

Why the world is running out of helium - Science - News Scientists have warned that the world's most commonly used inert gas is being depleted at an astonishing rate because of a law passed in the United States in 1996 which has effectively made helium too cheap to recycle. The law stipulates that the US National Helium Reserve, which is kept in a disused underground gas field near Amarillo, Texas – by far the biggest store of helium in the world – must all be sold off by 2015, irrespective of the market price. The experts warn that the world could run out of helium within 25 to 30 years, potentially spelling disaster for hospitals, whose MRI scanners are cooled by the gas in liquid form, and anti-terrorist authorities who rely on helium for their radiation monitors, as well as the millions of children who love to watch their helium-filled balloons float into the sky. Liquid helium is critical for cooling cooling infrared detectors, nuclear reactors and the machinery of wind tunnels. What helium is used for *Airships *MRI scanners *Rockets *Dating

World Population Clock: 7 Billion People (2013) - Worldometers World Population: Past, Present, and Future (move and expand the bar at the bottom of the chart to navigate through time) The chart above illustrates how world population has changed throughout history. View the full tabulated data. At the dawn of agriculture, about 8000 B.C., the population of the world was approximately 5 million. Over the 8,000-year period up to 1 A.D. it grew to 200 million (some estimate 300 million or even 600, suggesting how imprecise population estimates of early historical periods can be), with a growth rate of under 0.05% per year. A tremendous change occurred with the industrial revolution: whereas it had taken all of human history until around 1800 for world population to reach one billion, the second billion was achieved in only 130 years (1930), the third billion in 30 years (1960), the fourth billion in 15 years (1974), and the fifth billion in only 13 years (1987). Wonder how big was the world's population when you were born? Growth Rate 10 Billion (2055)

Things I Won't Work With: Dioxygen Difluoride The heater was warmed to approximately 700C. The heater block glowed a dull red color, observable with room lights turned off. The ballast tank was filled to 300 torr with oxygen, and fluorine was added until the total pressure was 901 torr. . . And yes, what happens next is just what you think happens: you run a mixture of oxygen and fluorine through a 700-degree-heating block. Well, "often" is sort of a relative term. And a hard core it is! FOOF is only stable at low temperatures; you'll never get close to RT with the stuff without it tearing itself to pieces. "Being a high energy oxidizer, dioxygen difluoride reacted vigorously with organic compounds, even at temperatures close to its melting point. And he's just getting warmed up, if that's the right phrase to use for something that detonates things at -180C (that's -300 Fahrenheit, if you only have a kitchen thermometer). Even Streng had to give up on some of the planned experiments, though (bonus dormitat Strengus?).
