Clear Super is a substrate additive made from activated carbon and organic acid. It aids in the growth of micro-organisms. It essentially acts as a food source for beneficial bacteria, and thus is very important with Bacter 100.
Carbon nanotubes(CNTs) were grown on SiO2/Si substrate using self designed rapid thermal chemical vapour deposition (RTCVD) with an electric feed through. Iron film used as a catalyst with 3.0 nm thickness was sputtered on the SiO2/Si substrate.

An ultimate Kurdish origin of Zoroastrian identity (at 0.5x rate), which confirms the theory of Kurdic (non-Iranic substrate) origin of the Yana Rhinoceros (ANS) component, whose origins go back to a Vestonice-Krems cluster in the Balkans (early offshoots of Ahmarian culture). This also explains the Zoroastrian fire-cult among Yakutians Kryashen Tatars and Uyghurs, general Kurdic-Turkic look alikes and Yezidi-Kurdic faces among Turkmens and Uzbeks. A very unique and ancient look of the Ahmarian culture.
Kurdish (non-Iranic) identity prior to Iranianization:

Indo-European ergativity explained: "Because these categories are both overlapping and partially contradictory, some classifications turn out very odd. So is, e.g., Tibetan agglutinative but has Ablaut (apophony) like fusional languages (ex.: Engl. sing – sang – sung), but unlike fusional languages, Tibetan is ergative-absolutive. Verb-initial word order structures (e.g., VSO) are typical for Semitic languages (yet except Akkadian and Rhaetic), but Old Irish (Indo-European) also follows this type (and clearly not under Semitic influence). Most ergative languages are agglutinative and thus do not belong to the Indo-European languages, but Hindi, Punjabi, Kurdish and Ossetic are ergative and nevertheless Indo-European, although they are also characterized by fusion. On the other side, the “hyperflexive” Caucasian languages are not fusional, but agglutinative, etc. Common sense in comparative linguistics is still that there is no need for typologically related languages to be also genetically related and vice versa. The basic reason is the assumption that languages may change their typological structure: “Wir neigen also zur Annahme, dass der indogermanische Sprachbau auf dem Wege der Überwindung eines primitiven flektierenden Typus entstanden ist, ohne jedoch den höher entwickelten agglutinierenden Typus erreicht zu haben/We thus tend to assume that the structure of the Indo-European languages originated in overcoming a primitive flective type, but without ever having reached the more highly developed agglutinative type” (Trubetzkoy 1939, p. 89)." -> www.federatio.org/mi_bibl/AlfredToth_Agglutinative.pdf
"The ergative orientation of the larger group of verbal nouns might be explained by the assumption that Proto-Turkic was, at some earlier stage, a language of the ergative type."

Color of Life note: The California halibut demonstrates a well-camouflaged fish using cryptic coloration on the sandy substrate. The chromatophores in the skin change its color and patterning to match its environment.
TAXAONMY
Kingdom: Animalia
Phylum: Chordata
Class: Actinopterygii (ray-finned fishes)
Order: Pleuronectiformes (flat-fishes)
Family: Paralichthyidae (large-tooth flounders)
Genus/species; Paralichthys californicus
GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS: They are large, oval-shaped flatfish. with small heads, large mouths, small eyes set wide apart. Their lateral line appears as a high arch above the pectoral fin. Many of these fish are right eyed even though they are members of the left-eyed family. They may grow to 1.5 m (5 feet) in length and weigh 32 kg (72 pounds).
DISTRIBUTION/HABITAT: Northern Washington to southern Baja California, though less common north of San Francisco Bay. P. californicus are found on sandy bottoms to a depth of 183 m along the shore, near rocks and in bays and estuaries.
DIET IN THE WILD: Like flatfish in general, is an ambush predator, using its large, powerful caudal fin to accelerate off of the substrate when prey such as other fishes or squid venture near. Juveniles (less than 55 mm) feed mainly on small crustaceans, such as harpacticoid copepods, small gammarid amphipods, and mysid shrimps.
MORTALITY/LONGEVITY: They may live as long as 30 years but are subject to predation by sea lions, sharks, rays and dolphins.
REPRODUCTION: Females can reproduce at 4-5 years and males at 2-3 years. California halibut are broadcast spawners in shallow waters of coastal areas. Their eggs are fertilized externally. In the larval form flatfish are bilaterally symmetrical and swim upright, as do other fishes, but at about 13 days one eye begins to migrate to the other side of the head. By the time the juvenile is about 8 mm, it has turned on its side.
LONGEVITY: Up to 30 years in the wild.
CONSERVATION: IUCN Red List: Least Concern (LC)
REMARKS: They have very sharp canine like teeth, and are known to bite.
They are able to use their lateral line to detect vibrations in the water, aiding in prey location and predator avoidance.

A screencap from a generative art program I'm working on based on Jared Tarbell's *Substrate* algorithm.
I've taken Jared's very versatile algorithm, ported it to Windows 10 screensaver app, and added some new geometries, textures, and generative color palettes.
Also, some color palettes stolen from Van Gogh, Mondrian, Monet, and others. See if you can tell which palettes are from classic art and which are generated by robots.
If you have Windows 10, you can download Substrate Screensaver here: 12tone.software/downloads/
A member of the space crop production team pours substrate and controlled release fertilizer into a Veggie plant pillow on Thursday, May 29, 2025, inside the Space Systems Processing Facility at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The plant pillows, along with Veg-03 MNO seed films, which will carry seeds of Red Russian kale, Wasabi mustard greens, and Dragoon lettuce, are set to fly aboard NASA’s SpaceX Crew-11 mission to the International Space Station to grow in the space environment to study how microgravity impacts crop development compared to ground-grown plants. Seed films enable seed handling and planting of seeds into plant pillows allowing for astronaut choice of crops to grow. Plants can provide whole food nutrition, improve menu variety, and positively impact behavioral health of astronauts on long duration missions to the Moon and Mars and space crop research aboard the orbiting laboratory is enabled by NASA’s Biological and Physical Sciences Division and the International Space Station Program.

...also known as an Asian Camel Cricket.
Greenhouse stone crickets are commonly known as camel crickets because of their hump-backed appearance. They are also called cave crickets because they are often found living in and around the entrances of caves. However, they are equally at home in crevices, hollow trees, basements, garages, utility sheds, or under logs and stones. Most any place where it's dark and food can be found. Typical of cave or camel crickets, it is a scavenger of dead insects and other organic material.
Strictly nocturnal, greenhouse stone crickets venture out during the day only when disturbed. Without wings or other sound-producing structures, these crickets never contribute to the evening chorus. However, some camel crickets are thought to drum their abdomens on the substrate in an effort to attract mates.
Greenhouse stone crickets are distinguished from other camel crickets in eastern North America by their decided preference for urban surroundings and a pair of small, closely set horns located between the bases of the antennae. Their long antennae—which may exceed three-times the body length—combined with long legs, may fool some people into thinking that they are spiders. In fact, some people call them “spider crickets”.
The powerful jumping legs of camel crickets can launch them up to four feet in the air. Mature females have a long, swordlike egg-laying tube, or ovipositor that they use to deposit several hundred eggs in the soil in spring. The eggs take about two to three months to hatch. The young, wingless crickets strongly resemble the adults, but are smaller in size. Once mature, the adults live for about a year. Greenhouse stone crickets overwinter as either nymphs or adults.
