Yeah yeah we've all read the story about the astronaut from a parallel earth that can't process foods because his body chemistry functions on mirrored molecules

Could mirror lifeforms potentially happen naturally, like could an alien planet have done that hypothetically?

Important question: does anti-life have an evil mustache?

AND

Playing God always ends well

New channel 👍You are all awesome 👍Merry Christmas 🎄

Ben and Emilia have yet to be carboarded

Spirals vs Anti-spirals for real!

I'd love non needles based vaccination.

they based off the idea of tamed wolves, or dogs, in the americas based on isotopes suggesting the canids subsisted on salmon? are we sure those wolves in the region just didn't eat salmon regularly? we have populations of wolves that do that today, just doesn't convince me 100%

Great… another way for some Chinese-muppet with a lab to kill us all. 🙄

Aw braw, let's just continue to create our own demise. Brilliant. Ffs.

He has been sleeping for a long time, he saw the era of that time, now he only dreams of it...

Wow is like the biological equivalent to dark matter. I never thought of this but it makes a lot of sense.

Skin having different immune explains why I am no longer allergic to my cats (my distemper has gotten used to them so my eyes, nose and lungs no longer react) but if they scratch me it will always welt up

new sci fi horror trope dropped

The situation with the Finnish seals is interesting from a conservation point of view. First, big props to the volunteers for putting in the work to protect these animals. You're heroes and it's inspiring to see generosity like that in action. BUT. What is the plan here? If these seals can't reproduce effectively without human intervention, then their 'natural' lives are over. The global temperature probably isn't going to be lowered any time soon, so an arrangement wherein humans actively care for the seals and provide resources they need to survive is going to become permanent. "Traditional" natural selection where the species survives or dies on its own merits, no human intervention involved, won't take place anymore. The seals are essentially living in a large free-range zoo from here on in. What is my point? I don't know. This isn't inherently a good thing or a bad thing, just... a thing. This is how evolution plays out in the Anthropocene. For lots of species, obviously, not just the seals. It's new and it's weird.

Well doesn't this sound like a fantastic idea!

Didn't know Malorca had Permian fossils

Ask these scientists if they want the L or do they want the D?

... am I the only one who heard "Let's go finish people" instead of "Let's go Finnish people"? 😳

Yay Science

8:56 so Star Trek's hypospray could actually become reality too, another win for ST!

Anyone else having issues accessing the curiousity box site? Ublock hates it, for a start, then it goes to a dead link even when I whitelist it.

So what your telling me is that biochemists just theoretically found the anti-life equation?

It's been fun watching you Boys growing to be Men !:-)

Considering the first item in the video... Maybe the scientists should print out a picture of Ian Malcolm with the caption "Your scientists were so preoccupied that they could, that they didn't stop to think if they should." and look at it every day before they decide to do such... Things.

It's okay, we're all doomed anyway.

If mirror DNA would be a problem, nature would already do it, it would be called evolution. It is not like there are any real obstacles on evolving something like that, while it "sounds" like there are quite obvious incentives.

Dont start being clickbaity lol your works good enough to stand on its own

Wouldn’t mirror life be unable to digest food, in the same way that left handed sugar can’t be digested?

2:07 This assumes a lot Can life'R| consume |life'S| ? Visa versa?

What a fun video title! Gives such warm and fuzzy feelings. This is exactly what we need right now.

Good luck creating life in a lab, you haven't done it yet, so we'll see.

We got Biological Dark Energon before GTA6

I’m a therapsid

“You know you’re scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could they never stopped to think if they should.” ~ Ian Malcom, 1993

I’m sure its totally safe and effective science. There’s no way they would ever alter a life form to gain some sort of function. Thank you for your fantastic content!

Well, as a compromise, we could whip up a quantum computer to simulate the exact quantum mechanics behind the creation of mirror life. All without having to create mirror life ourselves, and even if we do, it would only be to further advance our understanding of how such things would actually work. Taking things slow & steady in other words.

So… wait.. can we just.. not create synthetic life then?? What’s the purpose for all that??

Why should we not create mirror lifeforms if they have such a cool title? "Mirror lifeforms"... I'm going to be the mangled corpse of a scientist in a absolutely fucked up lab if they keep on making it sound so cool.

Mirror life? They're talking about the Antispiral

What? Another society-ending global event? I haven't even had dinner yet.

For the skin immunity, we'd better call the new treatments hyposprays lol

If in ten years we still haven't learned our lesson from AI and all the other evil technologies, this world is doomed. And all I or anyone else can hope for is better luck next time. Unless the evils of this world rob us of even that...

Mirror Dna vs evolved A.I. Let them fight.

If Ben had a scientific name it would be, "gorgeousopisians:. He is handsome!

"Finnish him!!!" I couldn't help it. Yeah another awesome 7DoS vid❤

As a Finn I am impressed by your pronunciation.

Maybe Finland should rename that region to Flipperland.
