Experiment "Space 25"
The "Space 25" experiment is one of the most terrifying experiments in the history of science, which is an attempt by scientists to explain human society by the behavior of a colony of mice.The idea of "Space 25" came from the American scientist John Calhoun, who created an "ideal world" in which hundreds of mice will live and breed. Specifically, Calhoun built a so-called "mouse paradise," a specially designed space where the rodents had plenty of food and water, as well as a large living space.
In the beginning, he put four pairs of mice, which in a short time began to reproduce, as a result of which their lation grew rapidly. However, after 315 days, their reproduction began to decline significantly. When the number of rodents reached 600, a hierarchy was formed between them and then the so-called "wretched people" appeared. Larger rodents began to attack the group, with the result that many males began to "collapse" psychologically. As a result, the females were not protected, and they in turn became aggressive towards their children.
As time ped, the females showed increasingly aggressive behavior, isolating elements and lack of reproductive mood. A low birth rate was recorded, and at the same time, an increase in the mortality of younger rodents. Then a new cl of male rodents appeared, the so-called "beautiful mice". They refused to mate with females or "fight" for their space. They only cared about food and sleep. At one point "beautiful males" and "isolated females" made up the majority of the lation.
Over time, juvenile mortality reached 100% and reproduction reached zero. Homosexuality was observed among the endangered mice, and at the same time cannibalism increased, despite the fact that there was plenty of food. Two years after the start of the experiment, the last child from the colony was born. By 1973, the experiment had killed the last mouse in space.
John Calhoun repeated the same experiment 25 more times, and each time the result was the same. Calhoun's scientific work has been used as a model for interpreting social collapse, and his research serves as a focal point for the study of urban sociology.Поддржи
