What is the substance formed during sleep in the corners of the eyes? Is it true that the north of Great Britain rises, while the south sinks and takes on a concave shape?
What is the substance formed during sleep in the corners of the eyes? Is it true that the north of Great Britain rises, while the south sinks and takes on a concave shape? These and hundreds of similar questions are sent to the editors of the American popular science monthly NewScientist by inquisitive readers. Qualified answers to them, prepared by serious scientists — physicists, chemists, geologists, physicians, astronomers — make up one of the permanent and most beloved sections of the magazine. Collected for the first time under one cover, they do not shed light on the secrets of the universe, but in an easy and witty way they acquaint us with serious scientific problems, allowing us to discern the global processes behind seemingly trifling phenomena.
