"Because the hummingbird’s tongue is so efficient, the researchers think...perhaps liquid-sipping robots could benefit"<p>A great day for science indeed. We stand on the precipice of a revolution in liquid-sipping robot technology; our children will scarcely believe the languid speed of their parents' liquid-sipping robots.
Things like this remind me how little we still now about our own world. How their are still places on earth that can still be incredibly remote and unexplored. That for all we've accomplished, their is literally a world of unexplored and undiscovered wonders around us.
I do not remember the last time when I saw something as beautiful as this one. It's amazing to know that it actually traps water with it's tongue instead of sipping it.
