Blowing bubbles - Soapy spheres pop pollen on fruit trees
June 2020, BBC News
Just when you think we are doomed by the insectapocalypse and mass bee death in particular, Japanese researchers have succeeded in fertilising pear trees using pollen carried on the thin film of a soap bubble.
Post Script
Once in a while I run an image search for something I think is totally random and will return equally random results, like "bumblebee porn". Well I'm here to remind you that anything-porn is not random. You can type [anything] porn and get a relevant result.
In this case, bumblebee is a transformer (although I don't recall this character from the originals circa early 1980's), and maybe he got a movie made recently, so he takes over the top results. And yes he's a robot, and yes robophilia is a thing. And on that note, I must recall the artist of sexy robot fame, Hajime Sorayama (also Japanese, thanks again).
