All the drugs tested reduced web regularity except for small doses (0.1–0.3 μg) of LSD, which increased web regularity. [12] The drugs were administered by dissolving them in sugar water, and a drop of solution was touched to the spider's mouth. In some later studies, spiders were fed with drugged flies. [14]
Sending spiders to space seems like a good idea (because, science), but arachnids apparently have their own notions about living in space. NASA researchers first sent spiders to space in the 1970 ...
In excellent physical condition, Garn did not become sick on the vomit comet before STS-51-D. [15] All three astronauts on Skylab 3 suffered from nausea, although the three on Skylab 2 had not; the illness affected their work during the first few days, worrying NASA doctors. [16] Experienced aviators and space travelers can suffer from space ...

The web of a funnel-web spider Tegenaria duellica. Many spiders, but not all, build webs. Other spiders use a wide variety of methods to capture prey. Web: There are several recognised types of spider web. Spiral orb webs, associated primarily with the family Araneidae; Tangle webs or cobwebs, associated with the family Theridiidae; Funnel webs,
Agelena labyrinthica build flat plate surface webs connected to funnel-shaped retreats similar to labyrinths, which are typically constructed between low lying grass and vegetation. [1] These webs can be at ground level, or up to 1.5 metres (5 ft) from the ground, however, the majority are found approximately 60 centimetres (2 ft) off the ground.
The effects of some drugs can be measured by examining their effects on a spider's web-building. [26] In northeastern Nigeria, cow horn resonators in traditional xylophones often have holes covered with spider webs to create a buzzing sound. [27] Spider web strands have been used for crosshairs or reticles in telescopes. [28]
