Lastly, we assessed its air-cleaning performance by conducting a series of tests using the Perfect Prime air particle monitor, a device capable of detecting airborne pollutants as small as 0.3 microns.
Male frogs use their bird-like calls to attract females, and as these newly named species live close to streams, Scherz thinks they evolved their high-pitched whistles to help their songs stand out from the din of flowing water.

In his will, Nobel left much of his fortune to create prizes to those who have done their best for humanity in the fields of physics, chemistry, physiology or medicine, literature and peace.

A fully operational asteroid food project would require an “industrial-sized super machine” in space, he says, but the researchers hope to begin testing the idea on a smaller scale in the coming year, starting off with coal and then moving to meteorites that have fallen to Earth, which they are currently working on a proposal for.
Electronic video processing extracted “the mean red (R), blue (B), and green (G) values for each bare skin region of the hen face (comb, cheek, ear lobe and wattle)”.
