A narwhal can grow a single 10-feet tooth through its upper lip; scientists used 3D X-rays and 3 particle accelerators to discover how nature's only straight tusk stays straight
- An international team of biologists, chemists and physicists has used sophisticated 3D X-ray technology to investigate the tooth at an unprecedented level.
- A unicorn may be a mythical creature, but nature made something very similar under the Arctic ice.
- Well, the narwhal has a strange tusk that can reach nearly 10 feet long from the animal’s head, erupting from its upper lip in a bizarre display that has intrigued people for centuries.
