A photo from open sources In the sixties of the last century archaeologists have discovered in Chukotka in the Pegtymel river valley strange cave paintings that depicted peculiar people similar on mushrooms. There was an assumption that the ancient northern peoples watched by aliens, like mushrooms. Perhaps that’s the way it was then that “mushroom civilization” appeared on Earth.
At the end of the last century, the idea of a collective mind of mushrooms really interested scientists, and in the year 2000 biologist Toshiyuki Nicagaki is conducting an experiment that literally shocked the entire scientific world. Taking a mushroom for the experiment Physarumpolycephalum, researcher placed it in standard labyrinth for experimental rats and at the other end put yellow sugar. Mushroom, throwing numerous threads, by the end of the day got to sweetie.
However, when the biologist tried to repeat the experiment, then a new Physarumpolycephalum fungus acted as if it had experience its predecessor. He released only two threads, the first easily navigate the maze and almost instantly found the right way. And the second thread arrived even more reasonably: she climbed over the maze and went directly to the sugar.
The third experiment completely shocked Toshiyuki Nicagaki. Instead the maze he made the mushroom look for sugar on a three-dimensional map of Japan, and pieces of sweet treats were spread out over all large cities of the country of the rising sun. Mushroom again Physarumpolycephalum launched its many threads, and these tentacles for sugar by optimal roads. What do you think? They walked along the existing railways in Japan, then eat mushroom instantly calculated what professional japanese railroad engineers took decades …
So what are mushrooms really? And, perhaps whether that is an alien mind that was once inhabited by The earth?
