How everything is interconnected

[Dreamline]

OK the point of this thread is to post anything that shows how reality is interconnected...it can be spiritual, scientific, an observation whatever.

One difference between plant life and animal life is....chlorophyll and hemoglobin....the molecules are the same accept one has an iron atom in the center and the other has a magnesium atom.  Hemoglobin absorbs and transports oxygen (that's why blood is red)....chlorophyll converts light into food for plants and oxygen is a by product of that process...without oxygen how would we do?

And yes, I am bored.

I was watching a documentary on the Concorde airplane last night. Science and technology is a pretty cool concept. Interesting to think that a person could have breakfast in London and get on a plane that could be in New York City with an hour to spare for a 7am breakfast meeting in New York! Another thing to think about is that the crew on the International Space Station rotates around the Earth over 19 times (So essentially 1 ISS day equals 19 Earth days) or 19 days in a 24 hour period of time. So if they are in space for a 30 day period of time they come back to ground seeing 8 sunrises and sunsets a day that makes them over a year and a half older on return to Earth! Mindblowing.

the lymphatic system of course and a powerful clean river washing debris from cell walls and providing safe and complete transport of immune system buggers to fight illness. blood is certainly important but without a healthy lymph system you could die within minutes should it stop flowing... LYMPH!!!!
