The Deadliest Animals In The Ocean
The box jellyfish has a soft, near-invisible body and tentacles that trail like loose shoelaces, and it carries…
Researchers picked oyster, mussel and cockle shells off Irish beaches, crushed the 3 kinds of shell into grains, and dropped them into water carrying rare earth metals at concentrations similar to badly polluted industrial runoff. The oyster grains took up as much as roughly 1.5 grams of metal for every gram of shell.
A single gram of crushed oyster shell pulled in up to around 1.5 grams of rare earth metal,…

Astronomers used 69 fast radio bursts as cosmic backlights to complete the clearest census yet of the universe’s missing ordinary matter, finding that roughly 76% resides as extremely diffuse ionized gas in the vast spaces between galaxies — while only 9% remains inside galaxies as stars and gas.
The universe’s “missing matter” was never thought to have vanished. Cosmologists could infer how much ordinary, atom-building matter…
