Почему не взлетели дирижабли? Часть 15: красная палатка и советский ледокол

Крушение «Италии» утром 25 апреля 1928 года унесло жизни семерых членов экипажа, оставив выживших на льду невдалеке от пустынных берегов Шпицбергена. Коротковолновая рация уцелела — но первые попытки связаться с судном снабжения «Città di Milano» или вообще кем бы то ни было оказались безрезультатными из-за геомагнитной бури. А двигаться спасшиеся не могли: у Нобиле была сломана нога, у одного из механиков — обе, позволившие бы их везти салазки остались в... Read more

[Перевод] Никакой «палеодиеты» не существовало: учёные выяснили, чем питались древние люди

«Палео». «Мясоед». «Пещерный человек». Какой бы термин вы ни предпочитали, некоторые из самых популярных диет последних десятилетий представляют собой возвращение к временам сотен тысяч лет назад, когда древние люди жили в пещерах и питались в основном мясом гигантских животных, на которых они охотились с помощью копий — верно?Неверно. Предположение о том, что наши палеолитические предки питались исключительно животным белком и жиром, возможно, навеяно сценами из мультиков, где Фред Флинстоун поднимает... Read more
