The Miller-Urey Experiment This experiment was exploring the beginnings of life on Earth which still is a huge question and one that we haven’t totally figured out yet. In 1952 Stanley L. Miller and Harold C. Urey placed the gases and liquids (Ammonia, Water, Methane and Hydrogen) though to be present in the early Earth’s atmosphere inside a closed system designed to replicate that primitive atmosphere see photo 4. The components  included a boiling flask to heat and circulate the solution, an electric current to replicate the lightning storms which stimulated the atmosphere. At the end of one week they observed many amino acids in the solution which could not have been formed by living organisms contaminating the system due to the heat. This experiment showed that organic compounds such as amino acids essential to cellular life, could be made easily under the conditions that scientists believed to be present on the early earth.   There now some reservations and criticisms regarding the experiment- including the energy available, the components and the apparatus design. However on the whole a neat experiment. Check out the original paper here  love LOGIK

The Miller-Urey Experiment

This experiment was exploring the beginnings of life on Earth which still is a huge question and one that we haven’t totally figured out yet. In 1952 Stanley L. Miller and Harold C. Urey placed the gases and liquids (Ammonia, Water, Methane and Hydrogen) though to be present in the early Earth’s atmosphere inside a closed system designed to replicate that primitive atmosphere see photo 4. The components  included a boiling flask to heat and circulate the solution, an electric current to replicate the lightning storms which stimulated the atmosphere.

At the end of one week they observed many amino acids in the solution which could not have been formed by living organisms contaminating the system due to the heat. This experiment showed that organic compounds such as amino acids essential to cellular life, could be made easily under the conditions that scientists believed to be present on the early earth.  

There now some reservations and criticisms regarding the experiment- including the energy available, the components and the apparatus design. However on the whole a neat experiment.

Very good background and explanations of why our population is growing and some effects of this

The Map of Life can be used to search for life around the world and it will give you their abundances. Using a variety of sources from the WWF, IUCN and individual Scientists the map will show where life occurs or you can select a location and then get a listing of the life that lives there. Simply search, select the layers and voila. Give it a try today.Here http://www.mappinglife.org/

It’s fucking serious climate change will afect everyone, by everyone I mean everyone in the future too including yourself, your children and their children. I’m not going to lay out the causes of climate change here there’s plenty of that here I’m going to point out the consequences. Increased freak weather conditions. By that I mean more drought, more floods, more of the weather conditions that cause huge damage. Here Increased disease. So far its suggested climate change might influence the distribution of devastating illnesses such as malaria and heat stroke. Here Increased loss of water. Water is so vital and the sources of it are under serious threat. Here Ecosystem failure. As we lose species ecosystems begin to lose working parts, failure of these means we lose vital ecosystem services. Here Crop failure.  Here All of those are just the very start the biggest joke is that these effects are going to be hitting the poorest and most vulnerable communitites and destroying some of the most stunning places I doubt most people will ever see. So it’s serious, get thinking about the bigger picture and take part in something that actually matters. I suggest you can start here Oxfam, Greenpeace, Tck Tck campaign Finally for any of those that don’t beleive in man made climate change this video sums it all up for you pretty well.Video.
