x-ray

Did you know that Rosalind Franklin was actually the only one who discovered this. As researchers were trying to form some type of structure of Dna so that they could view it better they were having to build it form scratch and trying build it from just a microscope. In the same lab building Rosalind Frankilin was trying to send a laser through a diamond to try and illustrate the texture of the diamond from the actual inside. So she sends a laser through the middle of it onto a mirror or just a regular wall. As she has her back turned anoth scientist walked in and was astonished at what her wall was dispalying. Her wall was displaying what the scientist were working on forever it seemed. She had a display of the DNA on her wall and the sad part that scientist took partial discovery of it and one an award and she did not becasue she died and the dead are not rewarded for this particular reward. The families still continue to fight over the issue.

Jellyfish

So in class we happen to come across this picture and this picture really made me laugh on the inside. The picture itself showed in one , two pigs were glowing in the dark and in the next two they had a canola plant and then some type of mouse or rat. How in the world did they get these animals to glow. Scientist one day decided that they were going to retrieve the bacteria that is in jelly fish that cause them to glow. This bacteria is called fluorescent protein. They now inject into theses three different types of living organisms and now they glow in the dark. Could it be that this is the same things in things like glow sticks? I find myself wondering these things because they are very interesting in the thought process. Is it possible that a scientist could inject this same proteing into a human being and they would be able to glow? I think that we should see, and some how I plan on getting the word out there. I would even be the one that they can use to experiment on.
