Finally got to see the Georgia Aquarium in Atlanta and I must say that I was absolutely blown away. It was one of the best experiences of my life. All the exhibits were so well kept and the amount of fish they had was incredible. Oh and whale sharks.... Do I really have to say more 😅 I'll post some videos up later on when I have wifi access.

How people are ignoring the planned parenthood thing is beyond me! They’re selling human body parts from aborted babies! How is that in any way right!

[protego-et-servio-deactivated20]

Planned Parenthood is donating the tissue to research organizations (after OKing it with their patient.) The $30 to $100 they are asking for from organizations who want the tissue is minimal to cover the cost of handling, storage, and transportation of the specimen.

Fetal tissue can be used to make stem cells. Fetal tissue, in specific, grows really well in laboratories (meaning one specimen can be used to grow more and more over years) and generally doesn’t trigger immune responses in other bodies. 

Fetal tissue was used for many of our vaccines today. There’s study in stem cell research to find a cure, or treatment, for diseases like Parkinson’s and diabetes. They are also researching ways stem cells can help conditions/injuries, like when people have crushed spinal columns.

This is a Sea Sapphire! And when it doesn’t look amazing it’s invisible!

This is a type of crustacean called a copepod. It’s back is covered in guanine crystals. If it weren’t for these crystals the Sea Sapphire would be transparent, but these crystals are spaced in such a way that they strongly reflect certain colours of light. The colour of the light that’s reflected is dependent on the angle that it comes in.

Usually, it reflects blue light, but when the light hits the Sea Sapphire at 45 degrees, the reflected light shifts into the ultraviolet. And since we can’t see that it becomes invisible!
