The high speed train is one of the most popular modes of transport in China. High speed of movement helps to significantly save travel time between cities. The pricing policy for high-speed trains in China is significantly lower than in other countries. If in 2008 high-speed lines in China accounted for only 6% of trips, then in 2013 - 79%
The science of the brain and mind today is like the seaside of the Age of Discovery. Psychologists, biologists, mathematicians, linguists - everyone stands on the shore in a state of "just about."
China, Guangdong province, Guanhu village. Chen Sheng, the founder and wise leader of Tiandi No 1 Beverage Inc., was born and raised here. In his old age, a wealthy Chinese man decided to do a great good deed and built a new, most luxurious one next to his old native village.

In the very center of Naples, you can find a unique tunnel that has turned into an unusual exhibition of vintage cars. Rather, history itself has turned this seemingly unremarkable dungeon into a visited tourist attraction
It's not a secret for anyone that the auto production in the USSR was rather meager. Soviet machines were distinguished by their reliability, but they did not stand out much from the gray mass. That is why there were craftsmen on the territory of our vast homeland who created cars by hand in garages or even in apartments. Most of them had an authentic design and were not inferior in efficiency to foreign concept cars
I remember in the days of the USSR it was the most extreme attraction that I went to as a child. There were wells, there were also round metal cages in which motorcyclists circled. Truly I don’t remember the cars, were there any? But what the Indians do in their wells is of course a "plague"
My husband is very often surprised, looking into my bag, not understanding why I need so many different little things. At the same time, just a couple of days ago, when I opened the trunk of our car, I found a pack of soda there. At first I laughed and asked with surprise why he needed her

Sacred centers in Greece were built, observing the proportion of the Golden Section, and since the official history hid the Slavs-Rus under the mask of the ancient Greeks, it is logical to assume that in ancient Russia cities and sanctuaries were built following this rule
Each state has its own secrets, and they are all carefully guarded. Perhaps the most mysterious and at the same time world famous place in the United States is Area 51, whose activities have long been the subject of rumors, speculation and even conspiracy theories

In the 18th century, under Catherine II, the road improved. This road is more or less known as the Catherine tract
Why is the wind blowing? Because the trees are swaying! Many preschoolers adhere to this geophysical model. Adults laugh at this and explain elementary truths to children. But it turns out that these truths are not so straightforward
In his book The Secret Life of Trees, the German forester Peter Volleben tells how he noticed that trees communicate with each other, transmit information through smell, taste and electrical impulses, and how he himself learned to recognize their soundless language

"Roll-roll a liquid apple, on a silver saucer, show me both the cities and the fields, show me the forests and the seas, show me the height of the mountains and the beauty of the heavens …" - Russian fairy tale. Can we say that ancient tales describe the perception of techno objects? And if so, how long has it been?
Because trees do not have eyes, arms and legs, they do not cease to be living beings with their own feelings, energy and influence on surrounding organisms, including humans. Our ancestors knew this well, and we, restoring the lost knowledge, can improve our health
More than ten thousand different types of trees grow on the globe. Each of them has its own name. And only one of them bears the name of a person. This tree is a sequoia
Scientists have found chemical traces in Siberia that the Permian extinction, the largest disaster in the history of the Earth, was caused by the destruction of the ozone layer and the sterilization of all flora
I am almost 80 years old and I would like to see my achievements in the field of education, described in several of my books on new pedagogy, to be used after me. And to all my proposals sent to educational structures, they answered: "Reforms are in full swing." But the fact of the matter is that they follow the form, and not the content, in which the main pain point is the relationship between teachers and students, i.e. pedagogical ethics
It is generally accepted that sugar used to be sweeter, the grass was greener, and the girls were prettier. Also, many fondly remember how they watched black and white movies with their family and got great pleasure from it. "Beware of the Car", "17 Moments of Spring", "Only Old Men Go to Battle", "Height" … All these films were black and white, but everyone loved them. Now you can often stumble upon films of those times, but for some reason they became colored. There is a simple explanation for this - they were painted
The Russian "window" comes from the word "eye". That is, the window is a kind of sensory organ of the home. The origin of the English window, which is not difficult to determine, is somehow connected with the wind
Even today it is a hydraulic engineering device
In January of this year, a documentary film of the famous journalist Boris Sobolev, "Going to Hell", thundered on Russian television. In it, on an extensive evidence base, he exposed magic call centers working in conjunction with TV channels TDK, RazTV and others like that, and also demonstrated that all kinds of projects with the participation of so-called psychics are pure staging
Can a little boy cuddle with a python while lying in her room, and an adult woman play with two Bengal tigers in her garden? It sounds incredible at first glance, but the friendship between humans and animals turns out to be more than we imagined. Who knows, maybe there were many more similar people in the past? One way or another, now you will see the top 10 amazing cases of human-animal friendship. Well, by tradition, there is a small bonus at the end. So let's go
Cavitation in the environment is the main reason for the destructive effect of ultrasound on microorganisms. If the formation of bubbles was suppressed by increasing the external pressure, then the destructive effect on protozoa decreased. The almost instantaneous rupture of objects in the ultrasound field was caused by air bubbles or carbon dioxide in plant cells trapped inside these organisms
The human brain is still one of the most mysterious things on the planet, and it never ceases to pose new and difficult questions for scientists
The first state TV channel of Russia in the last days of March told the world and the Russians two big news: Russia begins to build a new nuclear icebreaker "LIDER" at a cost of 98.6 billion rubles, which will serve the NORTH SEA ROUTE year-round
In the North of Russia, there was a legend that pearls appear only in those rivers where the royal fish, salmon, enters. They believed that a pearl was born in the gills of a salmon. A salmon, swimming in the sea for several years, carries a pearl spark with it, and when it returns to the river, on a warm sunny day, it finds the most beautiful open shell at the bottom and gently lowers a pearl drop into it, from which the pearl subsequently grows
Modern developments in the field of nanotechnology in the future will allow the creation of robots so small that they can be launched into the human bloodstream. The "parts" of such a robot will be one-dimensional and the smaller, the stronger. Dmitry Kvashnin, senior researcher at the Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry of the Russian Academy of Sciences, engaged in theoretical materials science
The author widely and successfully uses biolocation in his production activities, conventionally calling it in his interpretation “biogeophysical
The author tells with great humor how we are fed from childhood with science-like fairy tales. The simplest things, instead of a sensible explanation, are presented by scientists as religious dogmas. For example, academic masters did not recognize Lomonosov's rightness - they wisely kept a deathly silence. “On the case, we have nothing to argue,” they figured. "But it can't be that we are all fools, and he alone is a genius."
Despite the huge experimental material on almost two centuries of oil field development, the following issues remain unresolved: the genesis of oil, energy sources for oil synthesis, the mechanism of collection of scattered hydrocarbons in accumulations, the origin of types of oils
