Recent images obtained by NASA's LRO lunar orbiter have revealed the existence of 14 lobe scarps or thrust faults (elevations with small inclination angle) in the highlands of the Moon.
Rather, we should talk about autotransplantation, since it is about relocating hair that grows on the nape or the sides of the head, areas often respected by baldness. First, the surgeon removes a portion of the scalp from the donor region and is sutured. The scar will be hidden under the patient's hair.
Researchers at Massachusetts General Hospital (USA) have discovered a brain wave pattern that predicts a person's ability to sleep despite outside noise. This discovery, published in Current Biology, could lead to new strategies to avoid noise disturbances from the brain, which would replace traditional earplugs.
Roosters are territorial birds that show their power and dominance through defiant songs, intimidating other males and attracting females.

In a single gulp, an elephant is capable of collecting up to 15 liters of water with its trunk and throwing them on its body during the bath. It is like a pressure jet shower, as its supernapia, which arises from the fusion of the nose and the upper lip, stands as a powerful propellant.
A group of Spanish researchers from the Almería Arid Zones Experimental Station has come to the conclusion that evolution favors smaller and lighter males, because they can move more easily using their cobwebs, which in turn results in greater opportunities to find a partner.
Until now it was believed that whales and dolphins had no sense of smell. However, a study published in the journal Marine Mammal Science has just shown otherwise. As Professor Hans Thewissen of Northeastern Ohio University College of Medicine has discovered, dissecting the brain cavities of a Greenland whale, These animals have a large and developed olfactory bulb.
The brain of flies works faster than today's best computers, a team of scientists from the Max Planck Institute for Neurobiology in Germany has just demonstrated. That is why it is so difficult to catch them.
Danni Büchner is invited to Sam Dylan's Halloween party. But the "Goodbye Germany" emigrant has no desire for many other party guests. And find clear words.
