Week 12 [12-18.06.2017] Wine

Wine

I won’t lie if I say that everyone tried many kinds of wine but there is only few of us who really know something more about this beverage. The first wines were made in middle-east part of our globe about 3000 years b.c. It’s a long time ago, isn’t it? Ok, wine’s history is little boring, let me describe what types of wine we have and how it’s made.

The flavor mainly depends on grapes that are used. There are many factors affecting the quality of the vine like insolation, plants around vine, type of water, etc. Those factors have only a little influence on colour of wine. Color rather depends on the way of making wine. So, how it’s made? At first we have to squeeze the juice out under the pressure plate. In next step we have to initialize fermentation proces. There are several ways to do that, sometimes it’s a natural proces without any interference but sometimes it’s enhanced by chemical addons. Fermentation is very long proces and it mostly takes several weeks. On the end of this process, our wine is filterred few times and bottled. As you propably know, there are three main types of wine colour: white, pink and red. What do you think, is there possibility to make white wine from red grapes, or pink is made by mixing white and red one? Nothing more wrong – white wine is made in the same way like pink or red but in fermentation process we have to remove grape peels. Colour types are easy, there are higher level in case of wine flavour. It’s hard to describe because I’m not an expert so it’s better to watch a short red wine guide. It’s only little percent of wine knowledge. Here’s the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvWL6_A7uQc

Week 12 (12.01-18.01.15) Are you an early bird or a night owl ?

Owls are nocturnal creatures. They’re wide awake at night and they sleep during the day. If this sounds like bliss to you, then, like about 20 percent of the population who find themselves most active at around 9 pm, you may fall into the same category as our feathered friend. Night owls often have difficulty waking up in the morning, and like to be up late at night. Studies of animal behaviour indicate that being a night owl may actually be built into some people’s genes. This would explain why those late-to-bed, late-to-rise people find it so difficult to change their behaviour. The trouble for night owls is that they just have to be at places such as work and school far too early. This is when the alarm clock becomes the night owl’s most important survival tool. Experts say that one way for a night owl to beat their dependence on their alarm clocks is to sleep with the curtains open. The Theory is that if they do so, the morning sunlight will awaken them gently and natura...

Week 4 [04.11-10.11.19] Dark matter

If you don't live in a big city in Poland, you can observe many stars at night. Did you ever wonder how would look our sky in the next millions of years if we would count only on existing proven astrophysical theories and calculations? It would be absolutely empty. All celestial bodies in the galaxy are rotating around the biggest black hole in the middle of galaxy (in Milky Way this black hole is 6.4 billion times heavier than our sun) with such speed that the gravity generated by galaxy’s observable matter could not possibly hold them together. This leads us to conviction that something we cannot see is at work and is giving galaxies extra mass, generating the extra gravity that galaxies need to stay intact. Something, that will ensure us that our sky will remain the same as it was a million years ago. The official name of this strange and unknown matter is the “dark matter”. Unlike normal matter, dark matter does not interact with the electroma...
