Kawasaki Corleo Concept

Kawasaki has unveiled a futuristic and revolutionary mobility concept called the Kawasaki CORLEO at Expo 2025 in Osaka. This innovative creation is not just a motorcycle or a robot—it’s a fusion of both. CORLEO offers a unique riding experience that mimics horseback riding, using four advanced robotic legs designed to navigate challenging terrain such as grass, rocks, and debris. Inspired by animals like wolves and horses, each leg ends in a split rubber hoof that provides superior grip and flexibility. The rear legs function similarly to a motorcycle’s swingarm, offering effective shock absorption and rider stability over uneven surfaces.⁣⁣⁣⁣At the heart of CORLEO lies a compact 150cc hydrogen engine that… Read More

Ramadan and Autophagy

Autophagy is a natural process in which the body removes damaged cells and recycles their components for energy and repair. This mechanism is essential for maintaining cellular health, reducing inflammation, and preventing various diseases, including neurodegenerative disorders and metabolic conditions. One of the most effective ways to activate autophagy is through fasting, as the absence of food intake forces the body to utilize internal resources, triggering cellular cleansing and renewal.⁣⁣Ramadan fasting, which requires abstaining from food and drink from dawn to sunset, can stimulate autophagy, although its effects depend on the duration of fasting and eating habits during non-fasting hours. Research suggests that autophagy is significantly enhanced after 16–24 hours… Read More

The Journey of Indonesian Football to the World Cup 2026

Indonesia’s quest for World Cup qualification has been a long and challenging journey. Since their first appearance in the 1938 qualifiers, the national team (Timnas) has struggled due to poor management, internal conflicts, and inadequate infrastructure. A major setback occurred in 2015 when FIFA suspended Indonesia, barring them from international competitions. However, efforts to rebuild the team gained momentum in the following years. A turning point came in 2020 with the appointment of South Korean coach Shin Tae-yong. Under his leadership, Indonesia improved tactically and physically, blending experienced players with young talent. The team made notable progress in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, including a crucial victory against Saudi Arabia… Read More

the Science of Skin Color

The science of human skin color is deeply rooted in evolution and adaptation. Skin color is primarily determined by melanin, a pigment produced by melanocytes in the skin. Melanin serves as a natural defense against the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) radiation, which can damage skin cells and cause mutations leading to skin cancer. People with darker skin have more melanin, which helps protect them from these harmful effects, especially in regions near the equator where UV radiation is more intense. This increased melanin production also protects essential nutrients like folate, crucial for fetal development and reproductive health. As human populations migrated out of Africa to areas with less intense sunlight, their… Read More
