Science Memes
Welcome to c/science_memes @ Mander.xyz!
A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

Rules
- Don't throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
- Keep it rooted (on topic).
- No spam.
- Infographics welcome, get schooled.
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.

Have you ever magnetically levitated a cow? If not, then however magnetic they are, it's less magnetic than frogs.
Were gonna need a bigger magnet
So, you can actually use cows as a compass to a point.
Cows pretty consistently tend to align themselves on a north-south axis when resting. I don't believe anyone has ever figured out why.
Fucking cows, how do they work?
Mooooooo
They do know why, its that cows have some directional sense based in electromagnetism like an actual compass. Cows that are near high voltage power lines dont align the same way as cows normally do. Their sense gets messed up by the strength of the electrical fields that surround high voltage lines
They probably can see them, just like birds
Compasses point north, not to any nearest magnet. If compasses pointed to any nearest magnet, they wouldn't work as intended.
Is this a ken m bit
Can't tell anymore
Anymore should learn to listen a little better
Only in murica , cows dont need magnets .
RFK Jr and Kid Rock will be launching a "Drink Your Whole Magnets" campaign this week.
*Moognetic
Imagine instead of eating steak and burgers, you just start eating a bunch of metal and they would call it "meat"
Meatal
I have one of these magnets on the side of my work truck. Didn't know I was driving a cow
Cows aren't... real...?
