Will You Inject Yourself with an Ancient Bacteria for Longer Life ? - Science Feed

Hii, This is Science Feed.

In 2009, 3.5 million years old bacteria was found in the permafrost region on Mammoth Mountain in Siberia's Yakutsk Region. The bacteria was named 'Bacillus F' which was found by the Russian Scientist named Anatoli Brouchkov, head of the Geocryology Department at Moscow State University.
After numbers of experiments, it was found that those mice which were injected with these bacterias have far better strength and immune system than normal mice. Each time the experiment was done, the results were the same.

The bacteria Bacillus F, found in permafrost, is thought to be 3.5 million years old. - DailyMail

Curiously, One day Dr. Brouchkov injected himself with these 3.5 million old bacteria without knowing what would happen to his body. The problem was that scientists didn't know how the bacteria increase life span in mice. And about humans, not even a penny !!! He became the first guinea pig for the experiment

In a statement, Dr. Brouchkov said that since the day he injected himself with, he felt more energetic and healthier. He even said that he didn't get sick for two years.
'After successful experiments on mice and fruit flies, I thought it would be interesting to try the inactivated bacterial culture.'

'The permafrost is thawing, and I guess these bacteria get into the environment, into the water, so the local population, the Yakut people, in fact, for a long time are getting these cells with water, and even seems to live longer than some other nations. So there was no danger for me.'

According to studies, Bacillus F uses an unknown mechanism that made it able to survive in the worst conditions in the Siberian range. Dr. Brouchkov strongly believes that this bacteria may become the best contender for the prolonged lives of humans.

After this incident, another event occurs.
On 22 July 2017,  a German actress also injected herself after spending 37,000 pounds. The samples of bacterias were given by Anatoli Brouchkov. In order to not lose the license, doctors rejected to inject the samples in her bloodstreams. She injected herself under the support of a local doctor in case of a medical emergency.

There is a lot of researches going on controlling the aging of the organism. But, we don't know how the future will look like.

What is Fermi Paradox? - Science Feed

Have you ever thought why we have not found any advanced intelligent organism yet? Or is there any other type of life form outside our planet Earth? These are the basic questions that come into mind when we talk about Fermi Paradox. Fermi Paradox Fermi paradox is the lack of compatibility or contradiction between the high chances of existence of extraterrestrial civilization in the universe and lack of evidence to find them or communicate with them. This was termed after the name of physicist Enrico Fermi. It casually came in head of Fermi during talk with his colleagues and he asked, "Where is everybody?". Early and Related Theories Before Fermi Enrico, the founding father of modern rocket science  Konstantin Eduardovich Tsiolkovsky, a  Russian scientist, proposed Zoo hypothesis. In Zoo hypothesis, it is speculated that the extraterrestrial civilization knows about our existence but instead of contacting us, they opt to do observation on us similar to animals in zoo.  The ot

Evolution of Origin: 21st Century's Bitter Truth

By the basic definition evolution is "the process by which new species or populations of living things develop from preexisting forms through successive generations."  And by scientific terms it goes, "species can change over time, that new species come from pre-existing species, and that all species share a common ancestor." Now we read above lines again and find that both of them are basically the same thing while proving to be wrong at the same time. While many naturalists / geologists proposed their theory on the evolution of life only two of them gained massive attention, that is one being Jean Baptiste Lamarck, one of the best-known early evolutionists, and the other being infamous English naturalist that the world known as ‘Darwin”. Lamark first ever published his views in the year1801, later in “Philosophic Zoologique" in the year 1805 and subsequently in year 1809 in his book 'Histoire Naturelle Des Animaux Sans Vertèbres’. His works entails th

Falcon 9 (SpaceX) - Science Feed

Hey, this is Science Feed, and this post is about Falcon 9, one of the most advanced rockets in the world. Before we get started, we request you subscribe to our blog so that you never miss our informative posts. We also recommend you follow us on these social media platforms. Facebook         Twitter          Reddit          Pinterest         Instagram Falcon 9 is the first reusable orbital-class rocket that can be used more than once. SpaceX has designed and developed it for payload transfer to Earth orbit and space. Over the time period of 10 years, Falcon 9 has been launched 85 times, in which 46 launches were able to land. Due to its capability of landing, SpaceX has saved costly parts of the rocket. This rocket uses rocket grade kerosene (RP-1, it is cheaper but less explosion hazardous fuel, which is a highly pure form of kerosene) as its fuel and liquid oxygen as an oxidizer.  In 2007, SpaceX started the development of Falcon 9 which was boosted by the funds provided by NASA.
