A graduate student has created the first man-made biological leaf. It absorbs water and carbon dioxide to produce oxygen just like a plant. He did this by suspending chloroplasts in a mixture made out of silk protein. He believed it can be used for many things but the most striking one is the thought that it could be used for long distance space travel. Plants do not grow in space, but this synthetic material can be used to produce oxygen in a hostile environment. (Video)
If you don’t think this is cool, you are very wrong.
Sometimes I get sad when leaves on my plants die, but it’s just a part of the normal growth process! In the same way, our personal growth won’t always be perfect- we’re going to make some mistakes and have some setbacks, and that’s okay. The fact that we are growing in the right direction is what will make a difference in the end.🌱
just a self-indulgent comic that I made for my own birthday with spirit blossom Yone. I wanted something to cheer myself up what with all this covid business…
I also really liked the interactions and dialogues with Yone, along with Thresh of course (but that one will be for later), so I just drew out what I imagined this favorite interaction of mine would look like. Of course, had to put some artistic liberties for the funsies. also yes if you were to place me beside any of the humanoid champions of league i would like a fucking yordle
