The platypus has gotten a whole lot stranger. Not only does it look like a chimera of different animals, a mammal that lays eggs and has venom, it’s now found to have bioflourescent fur.

It glows green under UV light.

Scientists are seeing the Australian platypus in a whole new light. Under an ultraviolet lamp, this bizarre-looking creature appears even more peculiar than normal, glowing a soft, greenish-blue hue instead of the typical brown we’re used to seeing.

Don’t you wish you had your own robotic exoskeleton?

This would really take away the strain in manual labor.

“In the past, the lifting workers could hardly stay after 2 years as the heavy work would burden them with injuries.”

A few days ago, SpaceX started to offer Starlink satellite broadband internet service in areas located in the northern United States and southern Canada. With approximately 888 internet-beaming satellites in orbit the Starlink network is capable of providing ‘moderate’ broadband coverage. Early Starlink customers have shared photographs via social media of the Starlink Kit that is utilized to receive internet connection from the satellites in space. The Starlink Kit includes: “Dishy McFlatface” which is a 19-inch dish phased-array antenna, a mounting tripod for the dish, and an oddly-shaped Wi-Fi router device, pictured below.

It’ll start to roll out in coming months, SpaceX says.

The hardware kit to get started will cost an additional $499 up front.

The asteroid is believed to be the exposed, dead core from an early planet, that either failed to form, or was the result of many collisions over time.

16 Psyche, which was discovered in 1852, is located in the Solar System’s main asteroid belt between Jupiter and Mars about 370 million kilometres from Earth.

Quantum computers are now a reality, although they are still too rudimentary to factor numbers of more than two digits. But it is only a matter of time until quantum computers threaten Internet encryption.

Nature caught up with Shor to ask him about the impact of his work — and where Internet security is heading.

Nature talks to Peter Shor 25 years after he showed how to make quantum computations feasible — and how they could endanger our data.
