Spiders don’t just spin webs—they engineer them. By stretching their silk as they spin, spiders strengthen the fibers at the ...

When they weave their webs, spiders pull their silk threads. New simulations show stretching during spinning causes the protein chains within the fibers to align and the number of hydrogen bonds ...

When spiders spin their webs, they use their hind legs to pull silk threads from their spinnerets. This pulling action doesn't just help the spider release the silk, it's also a crucial step in ...

Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man movies, which saw Tobey Maguire taking on the role of Peter Parker/Spider-Man across three massively lucrative features, have now taken on an even more revered status in the ...

“When they spin silk out of their silk gland, spiders use their hind legs to grab the fiber and pull it out. That stretches ...

The stretching applied by the spider aligns the proteins, which strengthens the final structure. This transformation is essential for creating fibers that are both strong and elastic, capable of ...

"Spider-Man needs a full set to do justice to ... there’s room to add mechanical complexity because folks understand the story the card is telling. We don’t have to make Universes Beyond ...

When spiders spin their webs, they use their hind legs to pull silk threads from their spinnerets. This pulling action doesn't just help the spider ...

We could examine how drawing relates to the silk’s mechanical properties.” “Spiders perform the drawing process naturally,” said Northwestern Jacob Graham, the study’s first author.
