When bees get tired after long periods of flying and gathering pollen, they sometimes rest or fall asleep inside flowers.

Flowers can provide warmth, shelter, and a safe place for bees to recover before continuing their search for nectar and pollen.

@WOOLWORTHS_SA I'm 99% sure that insurance rejects claims with these kind of slick worn tyres let alone liability in accidents.

@MichaelButtonX Post after post you just prove that your account is an absolute trash account, regurgitating 'mysteries' being peddled over and over again for $ by many many grifters before you, bringing nothing new to the table.

the story of a marble worker evrard flignot who devastated by the death of his wife built a mausoleum for her. at first look inside, there is a mourner reaching out to an empty wall. but, once a year, on the day of the summer solstice, the sun draws a light that recalls this love for almost a century.

@MortalsOfEarth @DrDavidMiano Oh ok.. Another underground fantasy he never will prove..

[Isutrikanda @isutrikanda]

@BrightInsight6 @AdamCMilla @Filippobiondi_1 @notnarjv No. That would be finding an unopened entrance in a pyramid at Giza. @StijnvdHoven with scanpyramids. Real scanning, fully endorsed and published in scientific journals for review. Do you see them selling tickets for conferences to release a new image?

@DrDavidMiano @MortalsOfEarth *They.. don't David..

Sure man go explain the excavation rubbish pile to us.
Or is it also "underground" and the pile just happened to be there.

Smoke and mirrors.

Roman Wall Painting (1st Century AD), showing Perseus freeing Andromeda, from the House of the Dioscuri in Pompeii.

The wall painting of Perseus and Andromeda was found in the House of the Dioscouri, and was painted around 50-79AD. The painting was probably copied from a painting done by Nicias, a 4th Century BC, Greek artist. The myth tells that Andromeda, daughter of the King of Ethiopia, was described by her mother as the most beautiful. The sea nymphs, the Nerieds took offense at this and complained to the sea God Poseidon. Poseidon threatened to send a flood and sea monster to destroy Ethiopia. The king was advised to sacrifice his daughter Andromeda so she was tied to a cliff near the sea to be killed by the sea monster.

However at this time Perseus sailed past, and seeing Andromeda he immediately fell in love with her. He promised to rescue her if her parents allowed them to be married. Perseus killed the sea monster and released Andromeda, the moment depicted in the wall painting. The painting is the largest discovered depicting these characters, it is 93cm x 106cm.

In the painting, Andromeda has just been freed by Perseus. Her left arm is still in chains and she stands calmly in the rock holding her dress up with her right hand, stepping down with the gentle help from Perseus. The hero, Perseus is naked except for his cloak and he has wings on his feet. The decapitated head of Medusa hangs from his side, shielded from Andromeda's sight, next to his sword. The background is very indistinct, this draws attention to the scene with Perseus as the hero. The painting shows many influences of the original artist, Nicias. Shading and highlighting is used in Andromeda's dress' drapery and Perseus' muscles, giving them a three dimensional sculpture-like effect. The non-existent background draws attention the two figures. This focus on humans instead of landscape is a Greek technique.

The contrast of the male with darker skin and female with paler skin is also a Greek feature. This wall painting of Perseus and Andromeda shows the strong Greek influences in everyday Roman life. The artwork captures a myth, which gives insight into the belief system of the ancient Romans, and also what they found to be attractive to have in their homes.

The piece of art is a statement of wealth as it includes multiple colours and has very effective shading and highlighting. From this we know how Romans decorated their houses, what they liked, and what they saw as impressive, which adds detail to the bigger picture of everyday life in ancient Rome that we have been able to piece together from objects such as this. The preservation of this wall painting through the Mount Vesuvius eruption is valuable as it shows the tastes and views of the people who owned it, and we can see how these differ from today.

Interceptor drones have reshaped Ukraine’s battlefield defense strategy. These relatively low-cost systems provide an effective response to russia’s expanding drone warfare🧵

@PeterBrandEgypt 1. Ask a question / observe
2. Do background research
3. Form a hypothesis
4. Design and conduct experiment
5. Collect and analyze data
6. Draw conclusion

Not sure why you’re intimidated by people going through the steps of the scientific method.

[Kate from Kharkiv @BohuslavskaKate]

This is why frontline towns and cities in Ukraine cover roads with nets.

This is a russian lancet drone stuck in one of those nets. It very likely saved someone’s life.

@MBeallX @FlintDibble Second opinion @DrDavidMiano ?
