At the French fashion week showed a new dress to be sprayed.

This is a liquid fabric that scientists have been developing for half a year and was first shown on the podium by the Coperni brand. The substance contains cotton fibers impregnated with a polymer solution. When in contact with the skin, it evaporates, turning into a material. The outfit can then be turned into a liquid again and applied in the same way another time, adding, for example, the length or sleeves.

The reason why the aliens may not be able to find us is determined.

The University of Manchester staged a reverse - they took our technology for detecting exoplanets and figured out how aliens would be looking for us from different regions of the Milky Way. The result turned out to be disappointing - we are in a rather dark region and it is almost impossible to find the Earth using traditional methods.

Scientists have reconstructed the genome of the common ancestor of all mammals.

All modern mammals descended from one common ancestor that lived about 180 million years ago and probably looked like Morganucodon, an ancient extinct animal. With the help of computer technology, an international team of researchers was able to reconstruct the genome of this creature. The results of the study will help to better understand the evolution of mammals and save modern animals.

Elon Musk introduced a prototype of a housewife.

It is a humanoid robot that can water flowers, wave and carry small loads like boxes. Weight development - as befits a housewife, within 73 kilos. So far, they have named their favorite in a manly way, Tesla Optimus. The device uses computer vision technology and autopilot technology. Its 2.3kWh batteries should last a day at 52V nominal voltage. And while the robot's gait is still unsteady, Musk is more optimistic than ever - he says the robot will cost around $20,000 and "will be able to perform tasks that allow it to replace a person in certain areas of activity.

Scientists have learned how to make heaters from plastic bottles.

Chemists have developed a technology that makes it possible to make foamed polymers from used plastic bottles. The technology makes it possible to process polymers using their initial components as a source of chemical raw materials. Of these, you can make high-quality heat and sound insulating materials, for example, foam rubber. In this way, other substances can be obtained, such as a wood preservative or a viscous resin for the production of rubber.

Alaska's new lakes are teeming with bacteria that release methane and threaten the planet.

Newly formed lakes are called thermokarst. The bacteria found in them were sealed in the ice for decades, and now they've been released and began to absorb organic matter and release methane into the air - this greenhouse gas contributes to the temperature increase on Earth. Some lakes produce such large amounts of methane that bubbles rising to the surface can be seen with the naked eye. So far, scientists continue to observe and try to assess how dangerous the current situation is for the environment.
