Axolotl and genome therapy

Axolotl, the walking fish is an animal, what doesn't have cancer and what can renew it tissues incredible fast. This animal is endangered, because of pollutions and there is the only couple of places in nature, where this animal can be found. The reason for that danger of the animal is pollutions because the skin of this tiny animal is so sensitive, and it would not stand the pollutions. The "walking fish" interests people, because that animal would not have cancer, and it can grow the new foot or organs if it's injured, and it actually can renew almost every part in its body.


This small salamander can also regenerate the neurons, and that is very attractive for persons, who are creating the cure against cancer. If the massive part of the brains must be removed in the case of a brain tumor or accident, there is the possibility that in the someday the Axolotl can help us to regenerate the new brain tissue, in the case of accidents or tumors, and in the cases, where the person would go underwater too long time the brains can destroy because the loss of oxygen. The accidents are the most common thing, what could take the person to the neurological hospital for rest of the life. And if we could regenerate the neurons, we could rescue those people live.


If we could renew our hands or other parts of the body the surgery would be more easy and effective than today. If there would be the tumor in the hand or leg, the doctor could make amputation, and then the new hand or leg would be grown to replace the removed body part. And in the wildest dreams could the doctors create the entire new body for patients. If doctors could use the own tissue of the person,  that would help against immune reactions. There is one very interesting fact with the name of this little salamander. It is named after the Aztec god of lightning and death, and here we must ask, "why this tiny animal has been named after this god"? Did Aztecs use the abilities of that small lizard for some purposes? Those are the interesting things, where we can get answers in some day.

Schrödinger's cat: and the limits of that idea.

"In quantum mechanics, Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment concerning quantum superposition". (Wikipedia, Schrödinger's cat). But the same thing can use as model for many other thought experiments.  Sooner or later, or at least in the ultimate end of the universe, the Schrödinger's cat will turn into wave movement. The information that this cat involved exists but the cat does not exist in its material form. The information doesn't ever vanish. It just turns its shape.  We are all trapped in the universe and time. The universe is the space that is entirety to us. There are no confirmed other universities. But the multiverse is a logical continuum for the expanding galactic megastructures.  The problem with natural things is this. They are black and white. They exist or do not exist. Could there be something, that exists and not exists at the same time?  Scrödinger's cat is thinking experiment about case their cat is not dead or not alive. But in this...

The string theory offers a new way to calculate Pi.

"Scientists discovered a new series for pi through string theory research, echoing a 15th-century formula by Madhava. By combining Euler-Beta Functions and Feynman Diagrams, they modeled particle interactions efficiently. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Leap in Mathematics) People normally think that. The pi is the ratio of the circumference circle's circumference to the circle's diameter. The Pi is a mathematical constant 3.14159..., the endless decimal number. The Pi is interesting because developers can use that decimal number to make the encryption algorithms stronger.  The idea is that the encryptions program hides the message's original ASCII numbers by multiplicating those numbers with some decimal number. Or the system can add some numbers to those ASCII numbers.  "Aninda Sinha (left) and Arnab Saha (right). Credit: Manu Y" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Le...

There are always more than three actors in the real world.

"An international research team is advancing precision timekeeping by developing a nuclear clock using thorium isotopes and innovative laser methods, potentially transforming our understanding of physical constants and dark matter. (Artist’s concept.) Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Unveiling the Thorium Nuclear Clock and Its Time-Twisting Secrets) From Three-body problem... There are no pure three-body systems in nature. There are always more than three components in the system. For making real three-body systems we must separate those three bodies from the environment. Otherwise, there are stable effects. But nobody can predict some effects like distant supernova explosions or sun eruptions.  And one of those things that affect all bodies is time. When radioactive materials decay. That affects the stability and symmetry of the object.  Energy levels affect the existence of things like neutrons. The thorium atom clocks are next-generation tools for time measurement....
