Scientists found one of the smallest fish in the world capable of making a sound as loud as a gunshot 2024-05-05 13:24:33
This Tuesday, February 27, a group of scientists from the Charité University of Berlin, Germany, reported a surprising discovery: the discovery of one of the smallest fish in the world capable of making a sound that is as harsh as a gunshot.
This is the fish known as Danielle’s braina small vertebrate measuring less than 12 millimeters in length and is capable of producing sounds up to more than 140 decibels (dB).
In the study, published in the scientific journal PNAS, the scientists explained that this fish, despite its size, manages to challenge what was known about the skeletal movement of vertebrates.
“We discovered that it has a unique sound production apparatus (including drumming cartilage, a specialized rib, and a fatigue-resistant muscle) that allows the fish to accelerate the drumming cartilage with extreme forces and generate fast, strong pulses,” experts specify.
The group of experts assure that this type of discovery “challenges the conventional notion that the speed of vertebrate skeletal movement is limited by muscular action.”
Furthermore, it includes a “extraordinary adaptation, expands our knowledge of animal movement and highlights the remarkable diversity of propulsion mechanisms among species, contributing to our broader understanding of evolutionary biology and biomechanics.”
Although the brain of Danielle’s brain It is one of the smallest in the world of vertebrates,
NASAs Mars and Moon missions are falling apart. A double defeat against China is increasingly likely
It is not unusual for China to achieve milestones in space exploration that the United States does not yet have to its credit, such as successfully landing on the far side of the Moon or bringing samples from the youngest regions of the satellite to Earth. But what happens if China hits where it hurts?
The two most important exploration missions for NASA right now are to bring to Earth the rock samples that the Perseverance rover is collecting on Mars and return to the Moon after 50 years with the first woman. As the space agency’s budget problems and its partners’ delays put these two missions in jeopardy, China is more likely to achieve both before NASA.
Mars Sample Return
Overshadowed by the fame of its small companion Ingenuity, NASA’s Perseverance rover has done a brilliant job selecting samples of Martian rocks and depositing them in tubes on the surface of Mars so that NASA and the European Space Agency (ESA) can bring them back to Earth in the future Mars Sample Return (MSR) mission.
The news is that NASA has just halted MSR development in an attempt to contain its budget after a pair of expert committees concluded that the mission cannot be completed until 2040 with a budget of between $8 billion and $11 billion.
HP Transcend 14: The Best-Looking Gaming Laptop in the World
As much as I like our editors’ favorite test laptop, the Lenovo Legion 5, and as much as I like the performance of the MSI Titan 18HX, I don’t dig their looks. The drawings are mostly ugly. The exhaust pipes on the back are reminiscent of Transformers details, while the keys are decorated with letters in Terminator 2 font. It’s ferocious, that’s what it is. For me, as a nearly century-old gamer with a certain sense of design and a penchant for fashion, taking these computers out in public is downright embarrassing. This is where HP comes in again. After cleaning up the design department after launching the stunning 45L, they’ve now taken another big step forward in terms of design thinking for gaming laptops. Transcend is a new line of computers that goes further and surpasses everything that has been done before in terms of clean, tidy and successful minimalism. In all categories, it’s simply the best-looking gaming laptop in the world.
Inspired by the Mac Book Pro and it’s easy to see why. Cupertino-based Apple’s iconic Jony Ive designs stand out across the segment, and it’s those lines, shapes, proportions and even details that HP’s design arm has sought to emulate.

Eta Aquariids Meteor Shower 2024: How to Watch the Spectacular Show in the Brazilian Sky
The path of the meteors Eta Aquariids (or Eta Aquáridas) from 2024 can be seen with the naked eye in the Brazilian sky between this Sunday night (4) and the early hours of Sunday (5).
The peak is expected from 2am on Sunday.
According to the National Observatory, attached to the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation, the astronomical event can produce up to 50 meteors per hour at a speed of 65.5 km / second.
In terms of dark and weather conditions, the forecast is that night, the waning moon will only be illuminated by 14%, which should be favorable for observing meteors, since it will not send much block celestial lights. Light and weather pollution, such as cloudy skies, also hinder viewing the phenomenon.
The Eta Aquarids meteor shower, also known as the meteor shower, is an annual astronomical event that occurs when the Earth passes through the fragments left by Halley’s comet.
The phenomenon is generally visible in the Southern Hemisphere during the months of April and May and the light appearance usually occurs at the beginning of May. The meteors seem to have come from the constellation Aquarius,
Troubleshooting iPhone Alarm Glitches: Solutions for Apples Latest Issue
iPhone Alarm Issues Cause Widespread Concern
Reports of iPhone users experiencing problems with their phone alarms have been circulating on social media platforms, sparking frustration and tardiness among individuals relying on their devices to wake them up.
Apple has responded to these complaints, acknowledging the issue and assuring users that they are actively working on a solution to rectify the malfunctioning alarms.
While the exact number of affected iPhone users remains unknown, the tech giant has advised a temporary workaround by disabling the Attention Aware feature in the Face ID and Passcode settings. This feature, designed to adjust alert volumes based on user interactions, may be contributing to the alarm failures.
Contrary to popular belief, Apple clarifies that enabling the Do Not Disturb mode or silencing the phone does not impact the functionality of the alarm system.
For those seeking a reliable alternative, investing in a traditional alarm clock is recommended to avoid oversleeping and potential disruptions to daily routines.
Additional Tips for iPhone Users
- Regularly check for software updates to ensure optimal performance of your device.
- Consider setting multiple alarms or using alternative wake-up methods as a backup.

A restaurant can also restore, in the sense of repairing, people by giving them a second chance. Many places like this social restaurant exist in Belgium, where solidarity is still a key word. There we train adults from all four corners of the world to work together, use simple movements, restructure themselves. At Les Uns et les Autres we prepare meals for anyone who wants, everyone is welcome.
Here we collect locally, but also from the food bank or the donation exchange. No complicated gastronomic creations, we train in the oldest profession in the world. The service is friendly, sometimes clumsy, but always imbued with the desire to do well. In cooking, we keep it simple and create a common culture among the students. And it works! What an atmosphere, what warmth! For that alone I would go back. I ate a cod that was perfectly cooked, seasoned just right.
A starter, a main course, a dessert, a drink for around fifteen euros. Don’t see any unfair competition for the sector, but rather a pool of talent. In this strange world, willpower serves as a diploma far more often than all the pieces of paper in the world.
Why is iOS 18 on iPhone 16 expected by many people?
– iPhone sales dropped 10%
Apple’s revenue for the first 3 months of the year shows an ineffective business quarter, in contrast to the achievements of other large technology companies such as Amazon, Microsoft…
Apple just announced its first quarter 2024 business results on the morning of May 3, right before the new iPad launch event. These numbers paint a rather gloomy picture of Apple, according to The Verge.
Specifically, the first quarter 2024 earnings report showed that the company’s sales decreased by 4%, to 90.8 billion USD in the first 3 months of 2024. Revenue from iPhone, iPad and wearable devices like Apple Watch decreased year over year, while software and services sales increased. Profits fell 2% to $23.64 billion, marking Apple’s first quarterly decline in a year.
In particular, iPad revenue has decreased significantly (17% compared to the same period last year). At the same time, iPhone sales also declined (down 10%), while the company’s services business remained a prominent name with a 14% increase compared to the previous quarter.
According to the New York Times, Apple’s most worrying challenge lies in China, the world’s second largest smartphone market.
