Could an organism have several oxygen transport proteins? Can an organism have several types of oxygen carriers in its blood? Note that I am not asking how the creature could have evolved, that is too much sci-fy, genetically engineering or Deus Ex Machina evolution fits fine. The idea to use several kinds of oxygen carriers is to be able to survive in v... (more) |

Animal with inner membrane gas separation I want to make a creature capable of filter O2 from normal air in order to make several things... (filter air toxins, increase partial pressure of O2, etc). Could be possible make an organic membrane for gas separation? I think there are a few of different types of membrane to complete that purpose... (more) |

How could an organism store a massive amount of water? I want to design a creature capable of surviving long periods without drinking water, but I am not sure how that creature could store water. These are my ideas but I am looking for something more efficient or possible: Increase amount of water in blood: Each litre of blood has almost half litre of ... (more) |

Is possible to make an "almost-perfectly" sealed ship? In a series I remember that a group of people were trying to make a colonization ship and they had a big problem: the air. Ships (like every object) aren't perfect and they have micro fissures in the armor or in the edges of two plates of hull and by that fissures the air slowly escape. By a normal s... (more) |

Could a geothermal plant work for several millennia Is possible to have a geothermal plant (not necessary a very powerful one) to work for several millennia without the place where it is built over running out of heat? I found a page (don't remember which one) which said that a geothermal plant can only work for around 200 years before it depletes th... (more) |

Could there be an animal who breathes CO? A normal respiration is: $${\displaystyle C{6}H{12}O{6}+6O{2}\to 6H{2}O+6CO{2}+38ATP}$$ A normal cellular respiration uses O2, so my question is if it's possible to have a respiration with CO instead of O2. Something like this (an example of how can be done that): $${\displaystyle C{6}H{12}O{6}+1... (more) |

How to increase the efficiency of lungs Humans (and mammals) have 2 lungs, one right and the another left. The right lung has 3 lobes and the left have 2 lobes because in the "third" there is the heart, so the right lung is bigger than the left. I want to make a race with two hearts so I have to remove one lobe of the right lung to locate ... (more) |

Using liquefaction of gases to make an habitable dome Liquefaction of gases is physical conversion of a gas into a liquid state (condensation). I found that liquefaction is used to get liquid air and then split it into liquid compounds O2, N2, CO2, etc (each gas has its own boiling and melting points and density which can be used to split them). I... (more) |

Natural environment to force evolution to Immortality Which natural conditions are needed to force the evolution to immortality? I've read on a page (I don't remember the page) that if the environment is safe, the animal would evolve to have a shorter lifespan and large amounts of offspring and if the environment is dangerous the animal would evolve to ...

How to calculate solar energy produced by a space station? I have designed the "blueprint" of an spaceport. I know that in Earth solar energy is 1.200W/m^2 approx., but my spaceport is in the space (no atmosphere). Information - My blueprint has 60 solar panel blocks. Each block has 100m^2 area, for 60 100m^2 = 6,000m^2 total area of solar panels. -... (more) |
