did you know that we have a new organ
informational · beginning
It's called the Reti Ovarii
informational · beginning
it was discovered in the year of our lord 2025,
informational · beginning
if anatomists hadn't already described it in 1870.

The Reti Ovarii is a long curly structure that wraps around the ovary like a horseshoe
informational · beginning
it has been sitting there this entire time.

It even appeared in early editions of Gray's Anatomy, so it was hardly hiding.

scientists decided it was probably a useless vestigial remnant and just stopped investigating it.

Then, in 2024, researchers used 3D imaging to study whole mouse ovaries
informational · middle
and the supposedly useless Rete Ovarii looked very, very busy.

It had smooth muscles around it, nerves reaching it, lots of blood vessels and protein-filled fluid inside.

Some of its cells were covered in a tiny hair like structure called cilia, which helps move material through it.

That is objectively more infrastructure than most Indian cities.

THAT IS A LOT OF INFRASTRUCTURE
