Thank you for this video. I have an 'Off topic' question. . . I have seen jewellery pules arc micro welding being done under a microscope and the operator dose not have UV eye protection, whereas if the microscope is not being used, they have to wear welding glasses or have a UV screen. Q1, do the microscope optics absorb the UV light (from the spark,) so that it's lost in the system? And 2, if the UV is absorbed, is there someway that this UV filtering effect could be used to some advantage by microbe hunters? (The inverse of this is of course, our phone cameras can see the UV light from a TV remote control transmitter LED, where as we can't see it.) Kind regards . . . Andy
Many naturally available stains (eg. from plants) are not concentrated enough for microscopy. Carmine, for example, is a naturally occurring stain (from a mite) but only useful when in concentrated powder form.
Recently they found that all memories aren't even held in a brain but also in muscles and other parts of your body. So maybe even though they don't have a brain, they're holding memory in other places like their little cute little limbs
I agree that comparing other animals to humans is not really productive. We seem to have a need to separate ourselves from “others” as a way to see ourselves as above and more valuable. This allows us to use other animals and plants for our own purposes without restriction or regret. Pollution and climate change are teaching us that this is not sustainable. Nor is it humane.
longevity and survival in one's environment is a more enviable trait than intellect and self-awareness

In fluorescence microscopy you also use UV light. There are eyepieces with built in protection filters. Maybe also here.

Answer this, why are they so cute?
They look like Gummibears... And not very aggressive. Somewhat helpless...
Lovely video. Thank you. I watched an episode of Star Trek and they incorporated this lovely little creature into an episode 🎉
Tardigrades don’t care about humans and their things, so they are very intelligent! 😅
Great video. Thanks for sharing
Thank you, very interesting👍
I respect you so much
Exactly
What are the natural available things which can be converted into stains.

They aren’t smart but are so cute 🤣

Where was this information, when you discovered it? I saw a video saying the opposite.
May good ending yung "katangahan" nila water bear.💀
How do they reproduce? Do they seek a mate? That would require some intelligence.
They don't need to be smart. They live through anything. How are they going to learn any lessons to be smarter?
Calling them dumb is transferring human characteristics to them.
Basically the same as Maga voters.

We don't know....they are likely smarter than us...keeping small
Tardigrade are not that dumb...
Well... at least they never voted for Trump.
