Oui et non. On sait faire des centrales nucléaires dans des endroits trèas arides. S'il faudra y passer, on y passera. Tout comme les centrales françaises ont été déjà été lourdement mises à jour par le passé. www.reddit.com/r/AskScience... et fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central...

Jemand hat auf Reddit gefragt, wie groß der größte mögliche Penis eines Menschen sei.

Ein Walbiologe hat sich daraufhin hingesetzt und in 3h einen Text verfasst, Kalkulationen durchgeführt und es beantwortet.

Deswegen liebe ich das Internet. 😭💜

Look, reddit is for losers, it sucks to have to sign in. But I'm going to keep doing it as long as these freaks also stay on reddit.

Well worth the read!

AskScience subreddit post that I *have* to share because in the top response a biologist went DEEP into the biomechanics complete with published source material and yes, a penis database (across many species!) This is a delight to read, I learned so much

This response to “is it possible to be bigger than a blue whale?” In r/AskScience is an absolute masterclass in how to make your PhD accessible to the public. I knew about the thermoregulation issue, but the others were news to me. Like 37 BPM being the maximum heart rate, down to 2 when diving. Great resource if you’re writing sci-fi and want to understand various limitations on planetary life. https://www.reddit.com/r/askscience/comments/1x6umva/comment/ph5u2bh/ #WritingCommunity #scifi
