Yes..... but I would still rather that Aden goes tomorrow.....

melanin is just pigment!

 

God.. she is so bloody annoying..   I have said up until now that I wanted Aden to go..  but I won't be disappointed if its Heaven.

 

I'd have been removed from the house if I was in there with her 

I'm gonna google to see if Melanin is really in grass, as far as I can remember from Physics class at school, grass is not green but a mixture of colors made ferom chemicals. Heaven is a twat, I really detest her and she is very self centred and sly.

I think it is in grass..   I think its pretty much in everything... 

 

as I said its just the pigment... its not the stuff that plants use to synthesis sunlight... 

I'm with you on that bit! 

She was almost right about grass.  Grass refracts the sun light, not reflect.  It's only through refraction that the individual colour components can be seen which is why it is green.

I like her 

 

Yeah, not everything she comes out with is total bollox. She was right about it being to do with eye colour too. I admit it can be a thankless task sifting through the dross for the odd nugget, though.

I suspect she's half-heard and/or half-remembered some stories and facts, ans just got them mixed up...

has anyone been able to find any evidence that melanin flies rockets yet? 

Nasa.

 

How do you think they got to the moon?

 

noooooo!   not the "did man actually walk on the moon" debate.. 

 

that one gets aired quite a lot in my house..    I am past the point of actually caring 

I thought it was kryptonyte and flue powder

The thing you have to remember is that as soon as you start talking about "melanin" to any degree, you start getting into certain "political" areas.

If you do a quick search, you will find some references to Nasa using melanin - not to power rockets, but for protection against radiation. However, most of those sources are (from what I can see from a quick skim) politically-biased and therefore unreliable from a scientific perspective.

 

I think Heaven has (a) read a number of political books of questionable scientific value and (b) not properly remembered what she's read...

One would have to use an early form of chromatography. In a mortar and pestle mash up grass in acetone. Then using an eye dropper put a small amount on thin blotting or filter paper. Leave. You might then see the constituent parts. I should imagine. I'm not an expert though but.

A little tribute to Heaven after tonight's HLs...

(The footage is from Dumbo, but the music is the arrangement by Sun Ra and his Arkestra...)

Could she mean this

Melanie (rocket)

And this

she just got a tad mixed up me thinks.

Then there is this

Ooh - nice find!

 

I still think - in the the context of some other things she's come out with but which haven't always been picked up on - that it's more likely that her sources are certain "political" books and websites. She isn't the only person out there who believes NASA uses melanin...

  You have no idea what I found,childrens dishes all sorts,this is like Marios secret

Ra

 

Other Names: Re Patron of: the sun, heaven, kingship, power, light.

 

Appearance: a pharaoh wearing the sun disk on his head.

 

Description: Ra was the almost universally-worshipped king of the gods and all-father of creation. A sun god, he was said to command the chariot that rode across the sky during the day. A king, he was the patron of the pharaoh. Ra is the most central god of the Egyptian pantheon. Ra's position in the pantheon is unusual. He is the only god, apart from Osiris, who is definitely said to be not on the earth. Ra, it is said, is an aging god, still powerful, but too old to deal with his children any longer, so he has gone exclusively to the sky to watch over the world. Horus rules over the earth and the gods in his stead, demonstrating the divine right of kingship.

 

Worship: Worshipped widely throughout Egypt, Ra was the principal sun god for centuries.

 

Yeah - Heaven got a little mixed up, but this was another of the things she was essentially correct about.

 

I was being a little mischievous with my Sun Ra clip earlier, but the point is that she's not alone in her views on that either - not by a long way...

Agreed totally!

Me too she's harmless, she just gets her facts muddled up.

 Yeah Senora  

 

 Nobody engages with her...from what I've seen.
