Ever wondered what the longest Swedish word is? Swedish words can in theory grow infinitely long but this is the longest word in use, it's a word used to refer to a very precise type of work performed by a administrative branch in the military. It's 131 letters long.

Nordöstersjökustartilleriflygspaningssimulatoranläggningsmaterielunderhållsuppföljningssystemdiskussioninläggsförberedelsearbeten


It can be divided into these 12 segments:

Nordöstersjö-kustartilleri-flygspanings-simulator-anläggnings-materiel-underhålls-uppföljnings-system-diskussion-inläggs-förberedelsearbeten


This is a rough Swedish to English translation:

Northeasternsea-coastartilleri-airplanereconnaissance-simulator-facility-material-maintenance-monitoring-system-discussion-insertion-preparatoryworks


It makes little sense when translated into English, here's how someone tried to explain it with one sentence, he didn't quite manage to translate it accurately though. You know a word is long when you can't explain it with one sentence lol.

"
Preparatory work on the contribution to the discussion on the maintaining system of support of the material of the aviation survey simulator device within the north-east part of the coast artillery of the Baltic. "

Palm-Size Fossil Resets Primates’ Clock, Scientists Say

A nearly complete skeleton of a tiny, ancient primate — one that weighed no more than an ounce, had a tail longer than its body and would fit in the palm of your hand — is the earliest well-preserved fossil primate ever found, dating back some 55 million years and dialing back the fossil record for primates by an impressive eight million years, a research team declared on Wednesday.

The finding adds weight to the evidence that primates originated in Asia — not Africa — and that they emerged relatively soon after the extinction of the dinosaurs, which happened about 66 million years ago in an event known as the Cretaceous mass extinction.

The older date brings scientists closer to pinpointing a pivotal event in primate and human evolution: the divergence between the lineage leading to anthropoids — which include modern monkeys, apes and humans — and the one leading to tarsiers and other types of monkeys.

...

The primate skeleton belongs to a species never seen before, one that the researchers identified as the earliest known ancestor of tarsiers — a type of small, nocturnal primate living today in the forests of Southeast Asia. This unprepossessing early primate, which dwelt in trees and feasted on insects, was even smaller than today’s smallest primate, the pygmy mouse lemur of Madagascar.

...

“We’ve heard of the ‘out of Africa’ theory of human evolution, but that’s recent history,” said K. Christopher Beard, a paleontologist at the Carnegie Museum of Natural History in Pittsburgh and an author of the journal report. “So there may now be the ‘into Africa’ problem.” That is: How and when did some primates finally make it to Africa, which was an island as recently as 38 million years ago, to set in motion the emergence of the human species?

That's not an ancient primate, thats my genetic experiment that I sent back in a time machine.

Caught a bit of a break last night. A large limb fell on the roof but somehow it doesnt appear to have done any significant damage. Will know more once someone's able to move it.
