A new habitable exoplanet cataloged

The planet Gliese 581g has just been placed as number one on the list of the five planets outside our Solar System that could support life. The star was discovered two years ago by researchers at the University of Santa Cruz, California, but its existence was questioned by the scientific community. Now, new analyzes published in the journal Astronomical Notes confirm their presence.

The movement of the eyes before speaking allows you to guess what you will say

By analyzing the path that the eyes describe when looking, it is possible to predict what a person is going to say, according to research by the University of Edinburgh (Scotland).

Duffy and her colleagues in the magazine 'The Journal of Vision', sleeping only between five and six hours each night can negatively affect the performance of complex visual tasks involved in jobs such as air traffic control.

The music is less and less original

Pistachios fight stress

The crisis makes us play the lottery more

This has been confirmed by a study by the Carlos III University of Madrid (UC3M) which shows that, in recent years, the number of players has increased. Of course, the amounts we invest are less than a few years ago. The explanation is very simple: in times of crisis, society feeds on illusions and the game always generates expectations of success.
