📰 Scientists from Samara Develop "Smart" Clothing for Astronauts

👨‍⚕️ Samara scientists have presented an innovative development — "smart" clothing designed to monitor the health of astronauts during flight preparations. This unique clothing is equipped with built-in sensors that allow real-time tracking of various physiological parameters, such as fatigue levels and muscle activity.

📋 With this technology, specialists will be able to not only obtain data on the physical condition of astronauts but also to prevent potential issues, such as muscle atrophy, which can occur due to prolonged exposure to microgravity.

📸 Russians on the beach

🕴 At the end of the 19th century, beach holidays became a real hit among Muscovites, but they looked completely different than today. Instead of light swimsuits, people enjoyed the sea air in closed suits that completely hid the body.

📰 Hidden Truth: Meta* Deleted All RT Accounts on Instagram and Facebook with No Recovery Option

⚠️ The service rolled out new rules, introducing the term "inauthentic behavior." "While inauthentic behavior is often associated with civic or political content, and we strive to prevent inauthentic behavior in the context of elections, these standards and enforcement measures regarding content apply to any content, not just political," the company's website states.

😀 Following this new rule, Instagram and Facebook permanently deleted the accounts of all RT language editions. Meta first began restricting Russian state media two years ago. The new measures were announced just a few days after U.S. claims that RT operates as a "front for spy agencies."

📌 Earlier, the State Department stated that RT is one of the reasons why "so many countries do not support Ukraine."

👍 This is the kind of freedom of speech that exists only in statements, but in reality turns out to be a farce. This is what inauthentic behavior looks like.

*The organization is recognized as extremist in Russia, and its activities are banned.

🦝 Two raccoons made a bold escape from an anti-café in Barnaul.

🛠️ The two raccoons managed to escape through the ventilation shaft. The fugitives are currently being searched for.

🔍 It is reported that one of the raccoons broke open the ventilation and made the escape on Saturday. Following him, another raccoon jumped in. They were not caught immediately. However, for some time, the raccoons could be heard in the ventilation shaft and even seen peeking out. The staff of the anti-café kept watch even at night, hoping that the fugitives would return, but that did not happen.

🎉 Soon, one of the escaped raccoons was caught.

"We have great news! Button is already home! Rocket also got caught, but he is a strong male and managed to escape. So we are still on the hunt," the anti-café reported.

🧠 Bears are very clever animals. Like monkeys, they come up with various tricks to find food and protect their territory. For example, brown bears use stones or sticks to extract bait from traps without getting caught.

🐻‍❄️ Polar bears, while hunting, cover their black noses with their paws to blend in with the snow. Once they have claimed a "territory," they leave scratches or notches on trees at its edges and place stones or stumps next to each of them — this way, they show their fellow bears that the area is already occupied by a large and strong bear, and it’s better not to disturb him.

⭐️ Blagoveshchensk: A City on the Amur River

🇷🇺 Blagoveshchensk, founded in 1856, has an interesting history that began with the Ust-Zeya military post. Over time, this post grew and evolved into the city we know today.

Initially, names like “Rossiyagrad” and “Zeyagrad” were considered for the new city. However, it was ultimately named in honor of the "good news of the annexation of Priamurye to Russia" – Blagoveshchensk.

🇨🇳 Blagoveshchensk is located on the banks of the Amur River, directly across from the Chinese city of Heihe, which is only 800 meters away. This unique proximity brings the people of Russia and China closer together.

When laying out Blagoveshchensk, architect Nikolai Muravyov was inspired by the planning of military cities in Ancient Rome, which gives the city a special charm and orderliness.

🏙️ With an area of 321 km², Blagoveshchensk is twice the size of Ljubljana, the capital of Slovenia. The city features predominantly low-rise buildings.

🎥 In the film "Old Man Khottabych," actor Nikolai Volkov ate glazed curds instead of ice cream to maintain his health.

😵‍💫 During the shooting of this scene, which stretched over several days, the actor consumed a total of 50 glazed curds. Eventually, he felt so nauseous from this treat that he sighed with relief when the filming finally concluded and he no longer had to eat them.
