Science blurps

Have you ever wondered what came first, chicken or egg? Scientists have finally found answers to your dilemma. It is the chicken that came first, not the egg. This is because the protein that is found in egg shells can only be produced by hens.

The word “scientist” first appeared in the year 1833. Ever since then, the word has changed our lives. It is estimated that scientists discover 41 new species every single day. Not just that, scientists have also found a way to turn venom into painkillers by a method called “toxineering.”

One may wonder if there’s anything that scientists can not do, perhaps there is, however, what they can and are able to do is simply ingenious. For instance, did you know that scientists have discovered a way to charge mobile phones using urine. How so? Let’s not get there. Urine can also be used to grow teeth. Better we leave it up to that, yes?

From cancer to tumour, science has found a cure for even the toughest of death-centric diseases.

Recently, scientists have developed a microparticle filled with oxygen that, if injected into the blood stream, can help a person live without breathing.

For this shocker fact, let’s start by saying “to err is human” and scientists are mere humans. The world’s oldest known creature is a mollusc (about 507 years old). Unfortunately, some scientists killed it by mistake. Let’s just say that some things are quite inevitable.

Did you know that sunflowers can be used to clean up radioactive waste? And also that earthquake can turn water into gold. Pretty psyched, aren’t you? Now this one might sound like many of Adele’s songs but did you know that you could start fire with ice?

Science works in mysterious ways, agreed.
