The individual

"The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being over whelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself" ,    - Friedrich Nietzsche

Study Reveals Where Brain Stores Memories Of Familiar Places

A new study from Dartmouth reveals that three regions of the brain in the posterior cerebral cortex, which the researchers call "place-memory areas," form a link between the brain's perceptual and memory systems. The findings are published in Nature Communications . "As we navigate our surroundings, information enters the visual cortex and somehow ends up as knowledge of where we are—the question is where this transformation into spatial knowledge occurs. We think that the place-memory areas might be where this happens," says lead author Adam Steel, a Neukom Fellow with the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences in the Robertson Lab . "When you look at the location of the brain areas that process visual scenes and those that process spatial memories, these place-memory areas literally form a bridge between the two systems. Each of the brain areas involved in visual processing is paired with a place-memory counterpart." For the study, an innov

China Will Launch A Pair Of Spacecraft To The Edge Of The Solar System

China is developing a mission to send a pair of spacecraft to explore the far reaches of the Solar System and enter interstellar space by mid-century. The project aims to send individual spacecraft to the nose and tail of the heliosphere, as well as areas of space dominated by the solar wind generated by our Sun, to study individual regions of this bubble and how it interacts with the interstellar medium. A high official with China's lunar exploration project said the mission aims to reach a distance of 100 astronomical units from Earth by 2049, when the People's Republic of China celebrates its founding centenary. Chinese heliosphere probes will be launched in 2024. The first will have to fly around Jupiter in 2029 before heading towards the nose of the heliosphere. The second probe will fly around Jupiter in 2033 then to flying around the ice giant Neptune in 2038. The spacecraft could also potentially release a small probe shortly before arrival, with the main probe observin

How can we prove that we don't live in the matrix?

...Probably everyone has seen this movie And some people think that we really live in the matrix... After the release of the film "The Matrix" and its sequels on the widescreen, many people wondered:and, really, do we all live in the matrix? How can we prove that this is not the case? The main proof that we all do not live in the matrix is the fact that an infinite amount of data can be collected about the world in which we live (we will discuss how to do this later), i.e. this world is real. Indeed, if we lived in a matrix, then the properties of this matrix, i.e., the virtual world in which we would be immersed, would have to be recorded on some medium that would obviously be finite in that other imaginary "real world". Otherwise, the creation of such a carrier would "take" the whole world, and this is identical to the fact that we would simply live in it, since it was all created for us, i.e., again, we do not live in the matrix. Now back to the questi

Who survive after the coronavirus?

…The virus it's everywhere How many lives will be lost? I bet a lot of you all must have heard about a coronavirus. Television personalities talking about the epidemic and an ever-growing number of the people affected on TV all day. It makes me think of the apocalyptic film's plot where there are masked men walking around. It's like the Earth purifies itself and setting us people the difficult Surviving quest. What should we have done or maybe we have gotten a little crowded on the planet? I remember a huge epidemic in the history in the 14th century and it called The Black Death also known as the Mors Nigra if in Latin. Then, tens of millions of people fell victim to The Black Death from inefficient medieval medicine. However, for me, absolutely the best point is we are not in the 14th century we have the good specialists and great medical equipment😏 However, not everybody is optimistic there is a good deal of talk that the world is ending and we'll go extinct.

How To Give People Right Advice?

...Sometimes our friend needs some advice... But I'll tell you the right way… Sometimes everyone faces then our friend needs some advice and we too.
