Louis Pasteur. Noted for his controlled swan neck flask experiments to disprove spontaneous generation and support germ theory, he greatly advanced our understanding of disease. Pasteur developed two important vaccines - for rabies and anthrax - and the process of sterilising liquids, pasteurisation, is named after him. He was also a very competent organic chemist. His contribution to our understanding of bio and chemistry cannot be underestimated.

Interesting fact: pasteurisation was first used by the Carlsberg brewery to sterilise their beer way back in the 1870s 🍺

I was lucky enough to do an educational tour of Orica's ammonia plant at Kooragang Island this morning. On site, they make ammonia, nitric acid and ammonium nitrate which can be used in fertilisers, explosives, refrigerants and all sorts of other essential products. Even the 'waste' carbon dioxide is used to carbonate drinks or to inflate areas around body tissues in laparoscopic surgery!

Cosmodes elegans, also known as the green blotched moth, is native to Australia and a fine illustrative example of adaptation in biology.

The green and brown colours have given this moth an advantage in its habitat of native vegetation - it blends in with its surroundings, so it's harder for predators to see it, so it lives to reproductive maturity and passes its genes on to its offspring.
