Ever wondered how much of an #insect is actually air? Here’s video of a hissing #cockroach, scanned with our laboratory CT setup, showing the tracheal system. The smaller tubes (e.g. in the antennae) are not visualized due to low resolution. #microCT #respirationpic.twitter.com/Cj1ATzD1Fm

The humidity sense of insects is astonishing. (aside: I found interacting with insects while hyponatremic -- and more than a little out of it -- pleasant, but not sustainable)
