“Because they are constantly watching their environment” , confirms Jerome Siegel, a neuroscientist at the University of California, US. The sleep of whales, shared by other marine mammals such as dolphins, is said to be “monogamous”: brain recordings have shown that one hemisphere of the brain is at rest, traversed by slow waves, while the other remains alert, with fast waves. The two parts of the whale’s brain alternate between resting and waking phases during each sleep period: it is enough to allow them to stay not far from the surface with the help of small tail beats, and thus…

Not completely! Although our mass remains constant, we are heavier at the poles than at the equator. “This is because the centrifugal force generated by the Earth’s rotation is counterbalanced by a portion of the gravitational pull caused by the gravitational force.” , deciphered by Thibaut Damour, Professor of Theoretical Physics at the Institute of Higher Scientific Studies.Indeed, the closer to the plane of rotation of our planet – the equator – the stronger the centrifugal force. This reduces the effect of the gravitational force a little. On the contrary, the centrifugal force at the poles is zero: so the…
