@cosmobiologist Imagine receiving a response for a message sent out by humans a century back. I would just send a signal which can be tracked in time for a response, nothing complex.
The EEB Naturalist Club has had a really fun semester, with lots of nature walks led by various experts in our department! Really happy about how many students have participated (shared with permission)
It's amazing to know that geothermal light could act as a source for a few deep sea photosynthetic organisms. It makes sense, the core of Earth is still hot and so could be for many other planets.

"It's my dream to discover or know how solar energy gets converted to chemical energy. I believe that it has some answers to how and why the life is the way it is".
@MuduliAmitkumar@MITBiology@RNASociety@ScienceMIT DNA is a sequence of nucleotides and these nucleotides form a code. Each codon made of 3 nucleotides. The DNA transcribes into RNA and these codons will be responsible to recruit a particular aminoacid. There are 3 letter codes for all 20 aminoacids on DNA and RNA.
Today is #RNADay2020! Let’s remember former MIT Biology Professor Har Gobind Khorana and his Nobel Prize-winning work discovering how #DNA and #RNA code for the 20 amino acids found in proteins: https://t.co/syivpoqqkp #RNADay
Light allows us to see, #lightning allows us to know what our atmosphere comprises and that is how nature communicates with us. #ScienceStory (1/n) @SreeKavyaP
