Where does the rainbow end? | Questions | Naked Scientists Because rainbows are made in the sky, they don't touch the ground So if you're on the ground, however far you walk, the end of the rainbow will always look as if it were on the edge of the horizon
Why does the rainbow sometimes seem to end? | Science Questions I have been fortunate on a number of occasions to be fairly close to the end of a rainbow, 300 or 400 meters away, where you can see the actual end of the rainbow striking the ground If you look through it to see objects behind, you can see clearly that the coloured lines are on your side The actual rainbow seems to be close to half a circle, but why does it appear to end there? Is it going
Is it possible to reach the end of a rainbow? The end of the rainbow was quite large, roughly the size of the road itself, and was touching down directly on the road ahead of us, and having played with the rainbows a water hose is capable of making, I had thought such an objectified manifestation of a rainbow was impossible
Do rainbows follow the contours of the horizon? Question Do rainbows follow the contours of the horizon, so the curvatire of the Earth gives the curve of a rainbow, or is it the sun? Can you also get a Moonbow?
Will the 2025 H3N2 flu season be a stinker? | Interviews Chris - And what do we attribute that to? Ed - It's hard to be completely sure, but one thing that is clear is that at the end of the southern hemisphere flu season the H3N2 virus started to acquire mutations Those mutations were in the H and N proteins on the outside, which are recognised by antibodies, and we think this has changed the virus in such a way that the immunity you already have
Iran uses chemistry to make rain | Interviews - The Naked Scientists Peter - The idea behind cloud seeding, something that has been discussed since the early 20th century, is to increase what’s called the number of cloud nuclei — condensation nuclei — within a cloud If you have little particles within a cloud, it is much easier for droplets to condense out of water vapour to form drops, which then go on to produce rain The idea is that if you increase
Training phages to fight AMR | Interviews - The Naked Scientists So for many of the phages at the end, it's a kind of win–win–win process for us Chris – Where do you get the phages from in the first place? Do you just start with generic phages that you've recovered from the environment and then put them through this optimisation process to hone them?
Small modular reactors for Wales, and moss survives in space In the news, why the UK appears to be betting big on small modular nuclear reactors Also, Iran seeds the skies in bid to end its worst drought in decades And moss grows fat on a rolling stone - but a new study claims it can survive in space We’ll explore the significance
DNA, RNA and protein building blocks found in asteroid Bennu It launched in 2016, then spent a couple of years getting data on the whole asteroid, which is a 500-metre asteroid in near-Earth space, and then at the end of the mission it collected a piece of the surface of the asteroid and brought it back to Earth
