GET SMARTER SECTION:
I asked Dr. Simmons about the microscope. He said
"The microscope we used is a LEO 1450VP SEM. LEO is no longer around as they were consumed by Zeiss back in 2000/2001 but their great microscopes live on in labs like mine."
Read more about how this works here:

The well manicured hand dropping the male Itaballia demophile lucania at the beginning belongs to Mr. Phil Torres. We were at the Tambopata research center in Peru.

Instead of saving for my kids' college, I make videos using the money I would have saved.
The thought is it will help educate the world as a whole, and one day generate enough revenue to pay for their education. Until then if you appreciate what you've learned in this video and the effort that went in to it, please SHARE THE VIDEO!

This is by far one of my favorite videos Destin has ever made. It’s one of the videos that got me so interested in this channel I even used it in high school for a project. I made a slideshow talking about monarch butterflies and have a used the technology to produce the color that they are and I included a few key clips from this video. My presentation seemed to be one of the only ones that almost the other delinquents were interested in. My teacher pulled me aside and told me how much she loved this. I bought her a monarch butterfly that’s framed and she still has it on her wall. So Destin, thank you for everything you’ve taught me

Your comment just gave me a weird thought. If humanity is so close to the A.I. singularity, then it would stand to reason, if other sufficiently intelligent beings do exist, and if they are more advanced than us, than they should have already surpassed the point of the singularity, and should have A.I. capable of feats humanity couldn't fathom. Which brings me to three possible major conclusions: A. Everything stated above is true, and for some reason these beings (Either the A.I. or whatever created them) have chosen to stay hidden from us. Or B. we are the most advanced life in the universe. Or C. Mans fears are correct, and once the singularity is established, it destroys its creators and goes off on its own. Or i suppose a fourth possibility is just that it really is, by the laws of nature, impossible to explore the universe.

Concerning the "hairs" on the Cithaerius' wings, I would venture to say that these hairs act as angle of attack sensors to help the butterfly determine is attitude relative to the wind vector. This is a critical element of data needed for objects capable of controlled flight, including aircraft.

@railgap
@railgap 4 года назад
What if they serve multiple purposes? Hairs turn out to be a good defense against lots of things since the hairs themselves are non-living so cannot be infected or "hurt" (physically damaged, sure, but they are sacrificial by nature because dead) by say, UV light. They can defend against mites. Even small insects have parasitic insects and the like which live on their bodies. Hairs can make it hard for them to eat the host. Hairs with sensing nerves can also be used as sense organs. Hairs with erectile muscles (like human's skin hair) cam be used to help regulate temperature. And so on.

@@Mgl1206 the motion of the fluids (determined in part by how fast we are turning and in which direction - there are three, which occupy roughly three axial planes - see also "rate gyro" - a navigation device which does this a different way) is detected by hairs inside the semicircular canals. Our hearing is also detected by waves passing thru the fluid-filled chambers of the cochlea, to which the semicircular canals. We also have small stones inside hollow chambers which are part of the semicircular canals called "otoliths" (latin for ear stones) and the position of these stones (which wall of the chamber gravity is pushing them against) is detected by hairs also, and these give us a very crude sense of absolute orientation, although it is not precise. They are better at telling us we are "not upright" than exactly what position we are in. This is driven home forcefully when one takes a night SCUBA diving class, when you are weightless and can't see - you literally can't tell which way is up. But it's better than nothing. ^_^

What I think those hairs might be is a kind of other version of the scales that is not folded out, which causes it to stop blocking out light, making the wing transparent. That would also explain why those hairs look so similar to the scales, since it just uses the same blueprint, but instead never folds out the scales. It's the same evolutionary principle as human body hairs. Instead of getting rid of the human's hairs or the butterfly's scales on the places where they're not needed, they're just reduced in size.

But I clicked on this one because, with butterflies, I didn't really expect the creepy-crawlies.

Awesome! I was thinking about the butterfly's "hairs": they could be respiration limbs. We know insects have a respiratory system based on hollow tubes that bring oxygen to the tissue inside the animal, and on a flying insect one of the most efficent place to harvest oxygen is on the wings because of the convection produced by the animal itself. It would be a bit like a dinamo on a bicycle: part of the energy we spend on riding the bicycle is causing motion of the wheels that fuel the dinamo, so part of the energy spent by the butterfly for motion of the wings is recycled through the hairs that allow a more efficent respiration.

I have a theory on WHY they developed the 'dust' like material on their wings. As a kid, I liked to feed the big Garden spiders whatever insects I could find around the yard. The most common creature I found were little moths that hung out in the grass until dark. Half the time I threw them in the web, they would fly right out, leaving only a coating of 'dust' on the sticky spider web. Seemed like a pretty good defense mechanism to me.

Destin, you should check if the wing is still transparent under different types of light, such as ultraviolet. Since butterflies can see different wavelengths from humans, I can't help but wonder if the wing is actually transparent from a butterfly's perspective. Perhaps this could be used in identifying potential mates.

I was told to never touch a butterfly's wings or else it wouldn't be able to fly anymore.

me too Thought not immediately or with only one touch, but most kids(not only kids) don't know how to grab a butterfly so better to avoid the risk. if you only touch a butterfly for a instance it probably wouldnt be a problem, but if you rumb it that might destroy most of the little scales we saw in this video...

Thanks for the Video! I’m always fascinated by objects appearing to be the color they reject. What if the round nano structures are part of sensory organs to sense airflow? (thought of the title bands on sails)

The hairs have a similar structure/texture to the scales, except with larger holes and those protrusions, and they appear near closer to the origin of the wing. Maybe they're how a butterfly the scales? As the scales mature they unroll, the holes get bigger and the protrusions either smooth out or fall off, which would also explain how such wide scales are connected to the wings by such tiny holes.
@manoelamf1989
@manoelamf1989 10 лет назад
***** but then, how come the other wing didn't have them?
@spliter88
@spliter88 10 лет назад
Manoela Ferreira Could be vestigial. The butterflies originally had scales that had only fully developed, when it started to pay to have transparent wings rather than removing the scales on that part of the wing it might have been simpler to cripple the scale development in that area. And since the vestigial scales aren't affecting the natural selection that much they were left there. Kind of like our tail bone,belly button or appendix.

Amazing video, as always. I've read that butterfly scales do not grow back, is this true? If so, how do they maintain these nano-structures, through all the wear and tear? Wouldn't the colour fade significantly as time went by? Thank you, and keep making amazing videos (I hope my videos will someday be as good as yours)!

IDK, but they probably won't be worn out in the butterfly's lifetime. Or they are too strong to be worn out.

I myself just learned to work with a SEM during my first graduate project for my graduate physics degree. Amazing machine and suprisingly easy to operate. Butterfly wings are an amazing sample to look at apparently!
