Moleculers are in memories

scientists have reached a step closer in solving the mystery -what are memories made up of reports live science.the leading candidate is a process called long term potentiation in which the connections between individual brain cells get stronger the more often they are used,such a during learned.but while ltp has been observed in slices of brain in the labit has been difficult to record in a living brain as learning was taking place.
Liliana minichiello and her colleagues appear to have done just that by isolating a molecule that initiates a signalling pathway for ltp in the brain of a living mouse.in the new study, the team used mice with a defective version of a receptor molecule called TrkB,found on the surface of brain cells in the hippo campus.the mice were unable to learn or initiate ltp in response to familiar stimuli,indicating TrkB is a key memory molecule.agencies

Ancient flying dinosaur glided with four wings, study

the early flying dinosaur probably spread two pairs of feathered wings-like early aviation's biplane -to glide between trees, according to a study.
with long feathers,on its hands and legs ,the small four winged micro raptor would drop from its perch, swoop back up and fly up and down in an undulating motion from tree to tree.
The bird's ancestor could potentially cover a distance of a t least 130 ft, according to the study published in the proceedings of the US national academy of science.
It seems likely that microraptor invented the biplane 125 millions years before the Wright 1903 flyer,wrote researcher sankar chaaerjee of Texas tech university.
the 2.5 ft long,tree dwelling dinosaur,which weighed nearly one kilograms,also had a long feathered tail offering additional flight and stability and controlled pitch,the study said.

What are mummies?

When you think of a mummy what comes to mind? Most of us usually picture an Egyptian mummy wrapped in bandages and buried deep inside a pyramid. While the Egyptian ones are the most famous, mummies have been found in many places throughout the world, from Greenland to China to the Andes Mountains of South America.
A mummy is the body of a person (or an animal) that has been preserved after death. Normally when we die, bacteria and other germs eat away at the soft tissues (such as skin and muscles) leaving only the bones behind. Since bacteria need water in order to grow, mummification usually happens if the body dries out quickly after death. The body may then be so well preserved that we can even tell how the dead person may have looked in life.
Mummies are made naturally or by embalming, which is any process that people use to help preserve a dead body. Mummies can be dried out by extreme cold, by the sun, by smoke, or using chemicals such as natron. Some bodies become mummies because there were favorable natural conditions when they died. Others were preserved and buried with great care.
The ancient Egyptians believed that mummifying a person's body after death was essential to ensure a safe passage to the afterlife.collectedfromgoogle

the ammerican's space mission play

are you remembered the viking space probes of 1976-77 were looking for water and life on red plannet Mars. the result was there is no water on the plannet.Now the latest nasa mars study is revealing that there is a possibilty of water on the red plannet. new photographs of mars showed geologic changes that suggest water occasionally flows there-the most tantalising sign that mars is hospitable to life.
in the 70's the viking mission found no signs of life. but it was searching for earth like life,in which salt water is the internal liquid of living cells.given the cold dry conditions of mars that life could have evolved on mars with the key internal fluid consisting of a mix of water and Hydrogen peroxide.
the viking experiments of the 70's wouldn't have noticed alien hydrogen peroxide based life and in fact would have killed it by drowning and overheating the mocrobes.
a new nasa mars mission Phoenix is set for launch this summer, and one scientist involved said he is eager to test the new theory about life on mars.

silent valley- a magnificiant scene from kerala tourism

Silent Valley National Park

Location : 40 km from Mannarkkad, Palakkad district, north Kerala.
Attractions : Extremely fragile, a unique preserve of tropical evergreen rain forests lying above the equator and the forest strip which causes the summer rains in Kerala. The Silent Valley National Park has an area of 90 sq km is located in the north eastern corner of the district. It rises abruptly to the Nilgiri Plateau in the north and overlooks the plains of Mannarkkad in the south.
The core of the Nilgiri Biosphere Reserve is the Silent Valley National Park. Despite its name, the Silent Valley (the clamour of Cicadas is conspicuously absent here) echoes with the sounds of teeming wildlife. The denizens of this sprawling habitat of endangered virgin tropical forests include rare birds, deer and tiger.
Perhaps, nowhere else can one also find such a representative collection of peninsular mammals, over a 100 species of butterflies and 400 species of moths and other fauna like the Ceylon Frog Moth, Great Indian Hornbill, the Nilgiri Laughing Thrush and the Lion-tailed Macaque.
The river Kunthi descends from the Nilgiri hills, an altitude of 2000 m above sea level, and traverses the entire length of the valley and rushes down to the plains through the deep forest. The river Kunthi never turns brown and is always crystal clear, perennial and wild.
The evapo-transpiration from these forests is much higher than from any other surfaces. This cools the atmosphere, helps easy condensation of water vapour and thus causes the summer rains.
Getting there :
Nearest railway station : Palakkad, about 80 km.
Nearest airport : Coimbatore (in neighbouring

titan has long intrigued space scientists as it is the only moon in the solar system to have a dense atmos,which like earth's mainly comprises nitrogen.
titan atmos. is also rich in methane, although the source for this vast store of hyrdrocarbon is unclear.methane has a relatively limited life. a molecule of the compoun lasts several tens of millions of years before it is broken up by sunlight.
scientist believe that titan has a methane cycle a system that is like the water cycle on earth,in which the liquid evaporates,cools and condenses and then falls as rain,replenshing the ssurface liquid.
