BR_ Magic of Reality notes/Wonders of the world Netflix Flashcards
Looking at nexy nearest star, Proxima Centauri, if you look at it in 2012, you see what is happening in 2008.
If you look at next closest galaxy, Andromeda, you are looking at 2.5 MYA.
The majority of things real to us are only real inside our mind. None of these existed before brains existed! Pain, love, grief, sorrow, lust, anger, hungeer, up, down, high, low, sideways, fast, slow etc.
We have fossils of human family tree back to a fish, 417 MYA. This equals 185 million grandparents pictures.
Most of what we see around us are not elements but compounds. A compound is what you get when two or more different atoms join together. This is called a molecule.
Okay let us get this straight. God creates light on the first day but created the Sun on the fourth day. What? p. 127.
The colors we see inside our heads are just labels made up by the brain to identify light of different wavelengths. P. 169.
WEIRD WONDERS OF THE WORLD__NETFLIX
How can a dog show you which direction is North?
Why do dogs circle around several times before squatting to take a dump? Dogs can sense the magnetic fields and they squat North to take a dump!
If they are in a familiar setting, like their own back yard, normally they know which way is North so they just squat facing North. But if they are somehow distracted, or if they are in unfamiliar territory, they will turn in circles to get a better reading on which way is North.
Cows do the same thing.
Note that Solar winds sometimes distract the dog’s bearings and he may face the wrong direction, but most of the time he faces North.
Back during the Cold War, men manning sonar detectors would hear a strange noise they could not identify. This happen many times and it was determined by the Military the noise was a Russian Submarine.
For a long time this noise was top secret and highly classified. Only the very top security clearances were even permitted to hear the noise.
Eventually the Military called in an acoustics expert.
The Acoustics expert listened and analyzed the noise.
He determined it was a school of herring.
The Herring fish has an air bladder to help him float and swim. The Herring takes in air to float and exudes (Farts) the air out through his anus to swim down deeper.
Also the Herrings in a large school all fart in unison to distract the predator fish from attacking the little Herrings. All the bubbles from the farts confuse the predator and he cannot see the Herring.
The guy manning the sonar was listening to fish farts and not a Russian submarine. The Military then De-Classified the sound.
