The implications of quantum mechanics suggest reality isn't as solid as we think it is, but physicist David Bohm had a spin on the theory that restores reality. Columnist Karmela Padavic-Callaghan explores how we could test Bohmian mechanics – and if it... #Echobox=1778219933" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">newscientist.com/article/252466…

Congratulations to @animalresearch for the 12th anniversary of the British Concordat, the first world transparency agreement for animal research, launched in 2014 and now with 132 institutions. We in Spain will also celebrate the 10th anniversary of the @COSCEorg agreement soon.

When Chinese flying tree frogs (Polypedates dennysi) leap through the forests of China and Southeast Asia, a single missed connection could send them plummeting to a slimy end. Fortunately, they’ve evolved a few lifesaving contortions to grab hold of vertical branches and trunks, according to a 2024 study. Researchers filmed five of the tree frogs making hundreds of jumps in the lab onto poles of various diameters—ranging from dime-size to the width of a toilet paper roll. The amphibians made split-second adjustments depending on the pole’s diameter and how far off course they had veered. They either sailed past their targets before grabbing on with a sticky-padded hand or foot at the last moment, or belly-flopped heavily against the surface and embraced it. By far, the frogs preferred to grab poles with an outstretched hand and whip around. But as the poles grew narrower, they used their feet and their bellies more often to stick the challenging landings. Their angles of approach in the air might dictate whether the animals use their gangly limbs or resort to an inevitable belly-flop impact, the researchers propose.

Using just a stick, its shadow, and some geometry, the Greek mathematician Eratosthenes calculated the Earth's circumference with astonishing accuracy. His method relied on observing the sun's angle in two cities at the same time.
