A long time ago I found this article on KeelyNet which was reporting some research done on a potato eye, the part of a potato tuber which will grow into a new plant. I have placed the full article in the City-Data Blog Section as I believe it no longer exists on KeelyNet. This article and similar research done by NASA and associated companies points to there being so much we do not understand about our world.
A REPORT BY JACK SALTER
Aug.1, 1993 OF WATERFORD MICHIGAN
In the late 60's I was working for a company, in southern Michigan, called Space Defense Corp. The company was engaged in basic research with most of the contracts being with NASA. The question of particular interest to us at the time was, "What would happen to man's biological rhythms in a long term deep space flight?"
Man has about 280 biological clocks ticking away and are more or less associated with the Planet Earth. So if we take man and send him into deep space, is he going to fall apart?
The plan was to take something simple, study its' biorhythms on earth, then shoot it into deep space, then compare the biorhythm, which would give you conjecture as to Man. After a reasonable study the Potato was elected-it was simple, lots of data in the data banks, and the life-blood of Americans. To help clarify the data we elected to only fly the eye of a potato thus reducing the size of the experiment.
They always say there is the probability of a killer being amongst our friends. Dont know how many people you have to know for that to be true, but I guess statistically, it is probably true.
I also guess that folks dont like to think too much about things in case it makes life more difficult for them.
One day we will come to the realization that the world does not work in the way we thought it does, because our rigid rules of how things ought to work are being broken every day, but not being acknowledged.
