water we could live in a home where the cost me my. career on drugs or guns. would already be billions of years ago by someone very small. mailmen just little superiors. insects. with about $6000000.00 species of the most successful creatures on. a measure the distance to be honest on our planet. we are specialists with super power so. we can own the local homo. we just have to look very closely. or.

it's early morning in the mountains near i'm kind of in southern france in summer dawn is the best time to catch insects and later in the day gets to fox and they hide from the suckers just sent. us push us to talk on the street. the german insect reception and dress cochin skirts his friends colleagues on the way still don't know how to. professor on transport. is one of the world's leading insects biotechnology.

particularly interested in. because they are very now playing music. a chance because once they discover major things. and use them for the development of new drugs. he's looking specifically at the nation. in the phone about sort that's the best unconvinced that nature has already done that is the best and. the question is how do we do that so we need clever ideas these are example and we can now it is. all but i guess a legacy behind it isn't done here must this pathogens absolutely it's not an admission this much of it must have built up at the fence make knowledge of natural compounds that we can get money buckets of unanimity comment that some bigger than . the moon. the area around them. early eighty's

origins eggs local varieties of ladybirds into ringed with an alien species and species bred especially for biological in the wrong. when it becomes too hot to hunt insects but if scientists return to the lab to analyze they catch. on a mystery is an incentive to an existence he travels around the world including. by looking at a d.n.a. he can determine how they have spread over time. based findings are important fundraiser coaching staff at the centers for new drugs. on the one of the uk. this. and other the asian lady that was introduced to europe in america as a form of biological pest control the effort was to fight atheists because an asian lady bird eats a few 1000 of them jerk its lifetime. the green

arrows show where and when the insect was artificially introduced a pest control. but in the early 2000 something unexpected had. the asian lady that began to spread uncontrollably and displace native species. to survive politically or certainly propagate i love abide and we'd like to know that what is most this suddenly world wide spread that was what i needed it for did that but also a central asia after that is what we want to find out if we are dealt with an issue that's missed money mccleon. dress coaching skills will take some labors to germany to analyze them. tufts university boston the usa. the so-called silk lab is one of the university's more exotic research departments. here everything revolves around silk

and around los producing this fascinating material silk. beer and so on that joins a tufts university 2005 here began to get interested in simplicity. and started to see silkworms in a totally light. it's pretty amazing actually if you if you take a look at it. you can actually see the see the seltzer and so right now it's right this been. this is a 3 d. printer that this right here that if that comes out of it has out of out of here as a 3rd of

a tensile strength as deal and that is beautiful. and that is a professor of biomedical engineering ringback. he's interested in the properties of the material silkworms produce. a believes that cells can help protect the environment itself plaster ways. i'm not saying that city could soon replace many other material. silkworms produce about one kilometer of snow to build they could use humans have used silk kleiber's for thousands of years to produce textiles. but now the boston researches have succeeded in transforming silk into a new material with breath. thinking of it it's a case. of this the silk needs to be transformed back into with liquid similar to the fluid taken 6 produces before it spits extract. first the research is coming up to. do so for. them they extract the silk proteins of the course of

several tanks. and so now it's proven impossible to artificially manufacture the substance and the insects produce in this glass. it's a mixture of silk find a decent cool samson and more so. when the symptom spins its strength is removed the water from simply to the fibers and servicing then stick together and form and light it extremely strong. in a certain sense you go back to what the what the silkworm does so and so you take you take the native fibers and you bring them back to a liquid suspension of of silk fibroid protein and water and then and then depending on how the water evaporates or how you remove the water how quickly of slowly and under what conditions and what temperatures you get different material outcomes and so and so the material came together in very very amazing

technological form and so you think about a lot of things and you try to connect them and i think that's the beauty of the beauty of working in this and this domain. similar to plastic liquid silk can be shaped into lumps of different forms. the 1st research is trying to spin the simple fact just like this so. let's write this carefully extract it from a drop in the outcomes were really. got to keep something. so what does the saying do differently. to lose from. the trade to such a song went to work by bicycle. she doesn't come she doesn't even have a driving license and yet she's very much interested in trying to get rid of the

special kind of traffic. ringback outrageous it will start is the behavior of. the sooner you notice things of these. and busy never come out i am stuck. with my own train was the whole song traffic. are just some ideal research objects because they have particular the sophistication to just things. they can see. the kids sense of smell. and smog their trails it sounds so cool cerebral. different and discovers food it runs back to the next to get reinforcements and in doing so it marks its prime the others followed his trial and also on the man. be answer for the shortest of the

months just don't have a staff or mark more frequently after a short while it smells most intense. so that this room's. a simple yet brilliant way to solve for the just tickle problem but how failsafe is it. outrageous a took once to put the little transport geniuses to a test. where at the university of geese in germany. in the university's greenhouse and driest their chins cast breeds ladybirds. one lady can eat up to $300.00 both it's. this is one of the century's welcome presents consider the lucky.

good luck of take them for instance tax everything out of. their appetite is insatiable. this is especially true of the view of the nation that. it displaces in various species well jack right but why. in the barn 300 s. coaching staff and his team prepared experiments. because unarmed a bigger lab of a european made good together with the younger smaller than the contagion that's. the result of this one the researchers have expect the beagle eats the small. event something. long term to be sticks to find the from him other biggest enemies inflated herds are other lady birds who is already larger i've heard of the final exit or smaller

larva they'll eat them out and ivan surveys that were never heard in the birds in action ladybirds they dive off this stuff but in the deep other way around and i was out that nothing happens often although the idea that i'd himself was next. apparently the asian lady bird has a powerful bio weapon the kills anyone that tries to be to. dress approach in scouts examines the blood and the so called human of the insects it's full of microscopic parasites. this was just a shell which was about last hour that spawns a cell and i couldn't believe my eyes so it was so surprised and. i've been researching themselves and their immune systems are 20 years i've investigated thousands of insects on hooks for never seen anything on guns just and i've only seen those images like those in the sex i will jet in full capacity of those you feel i've never seen this on a fly by animal doesn't fly this story bruce wilson so often. the asian

made it must have an extremely powerful immune system. but how does it stay friends may consider. the tufts university in boston scientists are managed to extract the silks right from the true. secret of finding the right never the past human to see it's going to be a way to maybe build. a little he knew the name of the microbe. now they are able to spin a continuous strong friend from the quick fights. but a few doors further down they're already working on the next exciting complication is a bit of the end of the inside the inside prosody yeah. it's 3 d. printer is programmed to produce an artificial from liquid said. if you've got a juice but the human body doesn't you're going to see. the film extract the

printer is designed to do so for a few months. until they go to his cup of soup scaffolding with buckets and created a huge profits but will put it into the other end i do become a green body and then after that will century and that's when it really gets the fabulous grid. it's a beautiful process the transition from a liquid suspension to to a solid format of material but the pragmatics are that our ballrooms our organs are very multi scale complex organisms and so and so out of that wide array of possibilities you need to match something at all sky. ale's order for it to integrate as if it were part of the living system that is a very significant challenge so is it going to be a reality. probably is it going to be hard absolutely.

the implants only exists in the lab. but the research is a time sooner versity have achieved a breakthrough. they have proven that in principle soft snow can be transformed into hot about. interviews both are a just wants to put a run through just because skills to the text 1st sheep are passed a special meal for the red liquid contains 30 percent sugar but the green only ciro point one percent the insects are offered both food sources at the same time on identical tables the pass to the food sources are also the same length so this time the ansto have to find the shortest white to discover the best food source. first the answer begins to explore the new structure. they quickly discover the 2

bridges on the dishes with 2 different sugars so. there's a lot of traffic on the bridges but after not me pull the string from my concentrate to reach the solution. the other is virtually. secured to the songs just to stand the interesting thing let's just dismiss the city of the system if only and i'm still to have to compare the fates of resist all fit all the better the food of the more intensely they mark the path that doesn't add to climbing up the pillory just to get out that's just the end of one of us reach as there is food if you don't really get quality it doesn't leave us in that buffet imo it's simply follows the stronger thermal introduced to the system it's not really simple so like they did according. the quality of the videos why do some lighting or fewer fairly call it's a system that's very easy to communicate just calling a simple. to calculate. the at scale save system is of particular

interest to logistics engineer. the engineers that are from this because the truth serum flow just ticks and don't mean jump event this morning some government translates. it's awesome the transporter still looks like. the last big contract. was under nomic foursomes not if you think about dynamics at ours where the fast changing conditions for gasoline are shall try to exam or sizes and then so our arms are superior when you're in the robot lands it's a lot of confidence in our area but i'll take that principle every now i just want to read it was quite like joe namath only respond to challenges of again all 5. of the books not the textbooks of the same time 2 kids should play it's a competitive system made to fit for every joe. the 1st machine signals but it's

close on the 2nd one as a full of patrick but the good ones make it the joke because you can get along the way. however this sometimes least the strengths of the system looks just like our robots from the trunk of the public eye. but these are marked with wife i see that if you found some place. how i look at the robots encounter an obstacle in the right place and place for security reasons to stop immediately when something blocks that one. small amounts to simply look around the trying to discover it. market with. the robot however needs a little help. the

asian lady bird still hasn't revealed the secret of its powerful immune system but the scientists are close to solving the riddle they want to infect the beetle with particularly aggressive germs. to do so they fix it under the microscope. they suspect that the beatles' blood it's hema lymph contains effective substances against multi-drug resistant bacteria so-called super bugs. many birds immune system immediately reacts to the. interest charges small molecules which attack the intruder is. harmless. these molecules have huge potential for the development of drug. what is the exact nature of these substances 1st the researches must obtain

a small amount of the ladybirds blood however they don't need to prod it with a needle it's enough to briefly shake it as a defense reaction the beetle releases small amounts of its bitter tasting he with them and with it tiny quantities of the unknown germ cutting substances. while the ladybird recovers from his white knuckle ride the scientists prepare the mass spectrometer in the universe to slap. this machine is the sharpest tool in that box . this bomb bomb. bomb bomb. bomb bomb now says one of us to show the us is pure so i feel certain we gave you a new knowledge that we didn't have before before have not reached alba america but this is one side and as far as they can it's good not just like astronomers learning into the sky when task force hoop opened under one study what i mean is this honestly don't look at small details most all of us even the climate has to

look no astronomers and they also if they see corral are so normal or such good will go to certain buttons on when we're going to the might get caught saddam and so make all possible things that where all those issues are substance and this and how i'm going to see them for the benefit of humanity it's been bought. back at souths universities. silk lab in boston. the silk worms only need one thing to grown produce their miracle material. non-police. for 4 weeks they chop their way through the foliage increasing their original body weight 10000 fold. the fact that the researches of found a way to make simply quit again has opened up completely new possibilities. the liquid life material can be easily combined with medicines and shaped into new phones. the researches of discovered the drugs integrated into the silk structure

state active for longer. this opens up new possibilities for transporting and storing vaccines for example without having to worry about refrigeration. and since silk becomes hard unstable when dry the list of applications seems endless. speculating about the future there is a medical side that is really predicated on the fact that you have a material that interfaces well with living tissue but beyond the medical you know if you really think. think forward you can eat some heat sensors and they will communicate and tell you how you are you know tell you something about your food whether their food is good or not whether it's time to sew it away whether you're healthy. and it's not only about self i think it's going to be about a general platform base and that's really the right material you may have a phone that you can plant in your garden when you're done using using it or not.

so want to still could become an environmentally friendly alternative to plastic and that's how south i'll waste. the natural history museum or cancer or germans. an unusual meeting takes place the architect i think lincoln has come to see the insect research thomas not because. he's interested in sex but kissinger. 6 inch and above. they're interested in the

colorado potato beetle and it wouldn't. actually mangas is a professor of architecture and computer aided design at the university of chicago in germany. by studying insects he wants to discover a new design principles to create innovative structures. thomas field the colorado potato beetle because it can cause serious crop damage. it also has a very hot shot. it's striking yellow and black when cases protect the sensitive hind legs which it uses to fly. the wing cases must be both tough i'm delighted otherwise the beetle couldn't fly the architect is interested in the structure of these cases. they're not often one for guns on the human nature we find totally different construction pressures to destroy those found in the history of engine

origin or for a conjecture on the this allows us to think outside the box in an outside fix to ignore it and question the way we look at things. clogs instead we discover noir principles instead go beyond what you already know to be. in order to uncover the secrets of the beatles wings the 2 scientists take the insect to the institute of technology cultural. institute is a gigantic particle accelerator it produces extremely precise x. ray radiation. the scientists want to use it to analyze the beatles wings for which . this is the speciality insect exposed thomas by the.

the x. ray images show the case of the potato beetle consists of 2 separate shells. and is hollow assertion with an undertone. an extremely lightweight construction with cutting its mark the guys over that it was all conscious of and is a sword small columns connect the upper and lower house of the way up a shiny between them forms a large cavity the sun's going all of us business is on us into the sea it is the bright spots that show the places where the 2 shells are connected. to what is on our skin. but it's understood on those also. the one case of the potato beetle consists of closely into one of the finest. the architect is especially interested in the columns between the 2 shops which of poems by thick bundles of mine. to transfer the forces between the other and the

lower shall. come these columns by the spread out in many different directions this network of mind makes the structure of our life constant. i think it is something to mine and i think that although one ahead we marvel at what nature is for you that some of the other hand will wonder why this idea has a crust up in the engineering's or on off the tell and thirdly we realize that this is this is a bottle or shows that we can call these all relatively easily and methods on this as this on this is what makes it so exciting would absorb it all and just lots of them so fond. of the magnus was to use the beetle wings designed as the basis for a new structure. just like the wing case of the potato beetle the structure must be lightened state. however the architect is now how to design the load bearing compound. the beetle has not yet read. feel the exact arrangements of fighters.

into the shoes or drink just a tool he's still trying to outsmart the time. he storms or something new to producing and sells traffic jams again she uses sugar solution to attract the saints and the gang that populates over an hour of break this time it's riddled with obstacles. that sound all advocates this is a bridge with small pillars of what we've long to find out whether these us dollars calls follow they ask whether they'd rather help to structure their traffic and thus increase the speed of the ends it along to because they force. the hands to scupper the bridge and explore all the new sarang. then the 1st ones returns of the next. game far in trying to

beat others to the sure solution. 2 more and more times run across the bridge. columns obstruct the flow of traffic. all fed called finney i'm thinking out there is a pillar and blocks around it just comes i sit on the edge that comes towards it goes around the other while laughlin with system coming free. and easy for traffic acts can do it become way. women dressed in just. a certain city so it's cause problems especially during rush hour. at the technical university addressed traffic planners are looking into the problem . because of his new twist on looking ok we're in the north of dresden the stick or

the bistro gosh the city center over here before it is it's just very no sun just below and presidential jet fuel stuff michigan the other could be from the point of view which has been a. strategy number one story still trying to get honest with the science of themselves want to different just like ounce the cause of the storm. as it should listen to a situation arises when they're stranded a lot of traffic light is past what is it without consulting a central control system which instead of an authentic looks at the local situation us and results or those of us. just like in the company there is no 2 central control. using census each trying to find her so many hours are coming from the range. of 9 of 3 cars gets the green light 2 cars are coming from the other direction. but as soon as they are past the other cars going to. the truck you like to study to. and not just that it also has a soft spot. for coming when you're a long time because there was

a cause of the cars coming on the directions and it's a question. of trying to mind when times are good after a while the pressure of the blue because it's so hot that the traffic light really changes to release those who are using condoms when asked which apply to me to be changes with. charlie might also words popular drugs or trams always get a green light. on the circle don't give out the time you've managed to stuff not a complete or deuce waiting times for all types of trying to tie this for cars by about 30 percent for pedestrians a for about 40 percent looks escorts and for the 1st officers by about a 3rd and a fellow at the for public transport whatever managed to really was waving their arms for such took center about the type of books you're. mrs and not yours it's been established clever and then decided to autonomously. over in germany. the colorado protect the beetle has become the architects train

for brainteaser. they masterfully analyze its lights heat stable wing structures now they try to apply thank you john h. wonderful that all of the could. have important human who people know because we have to check out how we can adapt sure they're going through a system of 2 different geometrical configurations. which is no easy task actually i have to say no and she can the layers have to touch each other with a decent amount of contact force and it's room never mind computers just to make this use a simple wooden thread model to try out his ideas. he says i'm sick you've proven it's important to note that evil doesn't tell us everything. a great little allows us to discover a certain so basic construction on its own genealogy wise and now we can apply these construction principles in a multitude of ways so that his mouth as fast as he know many different shape will

not like gene going on and we can guess in a certain way on what's the overall construction might look like i'll see what the outcome is. the architects have used the beetle wings pillars to design pentagons they form the basic building blocks of the structure. of the body you have simulated the stresses acting on such an element the money you can sue the bad guys your good and the direction of the stresses so you can get some of the wheels there . and you're going to see us not tire structure will look like in st. the beetle weighing 2000000000 because this is of carbon in glass fibers computer controlled robots produce the individual our. final structure put up on the university's campus in stuttgart normally this would be the end of such an architectural experiment. out of using london commissions

a new even bigger pavilion. and to the homes beyond simply refuse to get stuck in traffic jams. in order a desire to observe something on to something handsome the snow removal rock paper system. sparkle fuck a fortune i don't think the answer away for several example i'm disappointed in the tough week sickish seriousness of the napkins on her to be an evil little fit and if you get over look at all that any form i have is that the end is stopped traffic becomes to have a coffee different top of the top yet your have slid into many delicious is that all or some one still stock place in these and then forms it against that structure that if i click on clear how strange it is there i doubt it. it's not your claim all the arms know when to stop it regularly there are

travelling to the radius a tour wants to continue studying means it is nice to hear the ams probably have many more tricks with numbers without driving problems at least 3 now has an explanation for why they have been trying to terms. to double only for me but doesn't beat the ends have a common goal or should learn they're looking for food which they then buyers well know how to share with their hears like evolution on their system only works because people want to gather their interest and if it is the upper end it was well if you compare this well also hard or crestor your traffic because you don't like them going has their own goals that are motivations old there's no real interest to have one more hit on the coping. more cooperation and less egotism would probably help us to. show that on this basis even highly complex societies come from china visions.

at the university of the fabrication of a new fetal position is entering its decisive fangs. according to a preprogramed passive bass the potato beetle designed a rope winds press and he climbs copper pipes onto a steep price. an engineer always keeps one finger on the emergency standby in case of freight slips off and the robot produces a rat's nest of fire. when construction stronger steel will be for leaving only the harder. they will fall on supporting out most of the bricks. the glass uncommon fine the bag the load the belt. as a protection against right not much plexiglass on the top. some

dish also it's question amazing moment to see the structural correction stains and seam because one has if we haven't actually seen its real shape she is or is in it emerges during the manufacturing process and just through the interaction of human fostered by a person to influence such offers. nothing drags nothing back. the grace to come. the big toe now looks nothing get to eat of it. that's got the doc i this was not a roof leak everything you see swallow is about as much as we are metres of the facade of this brick building as all the skulls of it was mine i was 2 and a half a dozen since i got up just to give you an idea of the mavs they last joined by special and solid but all suffer like i was also as was

a polished. piece by case the elements are assembled into a $200.00 square metre of it and. however the workers have difficulties tightening the screws which slows down the construction work. but with each other it was getting better just send the can of its structure. to manage to make the 1000000000. just for the exhibition. a toy store on for i've been doing and nature audition incredibly huge music just as obama said he did of possibilities mukesh chi that makes us since i was always diverse and active even doing it it shows us how to annoy things and we wouldn't get done because here come essential ways opposite from pudong than on ours and i

want to have a lot of technical solutions i need to look. the the clip of it is the main attraction of the culture out of the music. to visit israel where this building is modeled on the wings of a small piece to just be considered the past the centuries. after odone in hospital in them and is starting to test the ladybird 100 miles even on one small office. during our 1st year in college torrijos now we came affect your superbugs because without knowing it she belongs to one high risk group. gymnasts set changing rooms and spoke to cook and they frequently suffer salinger and $93.00 points for bacteria and other jackass.
