Welcome to the sixth issue of SteemSTEM Distilled, a curation effort by the members of the 
SteemSTEM is a community driven project which seeks to promote well-written and informative Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics posts on Steemit. The project involves curating STEM-related posts through upvoting, resteeming, offering constructive feedback, supporting scientific contests, and other related activities.
Our team scours the platform for original and quality content.After working through thousands (literally!) of STEM-related posts and upvoting more than 200 that we deemed to be worthy, we proudly present you our top 7 handpicked choices:
@dber, this time on the Grifola frondosa mushroom, commonly known as the hen-of-the-woods, ram's head and sheep's head.
@pratik27 will cover these problems along with some potential solutions. In his second episode part, he tells us more about why Mar's atmosphere would kill us and shares more solutions for this particular problem...
@irime gives us a short review and a thorough explanation of the science involved in the movie Origins. This girl sure knows how to keep our interest on every time! Don't worry, no big spoilers included ;)![]
@zycr22 shows us how a certain species of beetles deceive ant predators. The con-beetles are so good at it that get to sneak in the ants' nest and pretend to be one of the workers. Really, you need to read this one!
@tradershape helps us find a solution to a complex problem, more like a brain teaser I'd say. Go on, read the problem and try to solve it for yourself!
@jakipatryk introduces us to another briliant mind Arthur Compton, best known for the Compton effect which demonstrated the particle nature of electromagnetic radiation.For the sake of transparency we feel we need to clarify how our nomination process works; each issue is compiled by certain members of the SteemSTEM community. This week's editorial team was comprised of 
The editorial team chooses their favorite posts for the week and each issue is the result of their joined effort. In order to keep the process fair, posts written by the editorial team are excluded from the nomination process.
Don't be discouraged if you didn't make it on this issue. The competition is harsh and there is always a next time :) In the meantime, you may wish to check these guidelines for extra tips on how your writing can be more effective.
In the same spirit of being transparent about our actions that are now supported by 
If you want to discuss this with us, please do not hesitate to join the steemSTEM channel on the Steemit chat or to follow our curation trail on Streemian. If you are not on Streemian, we have a plan B through a homemade voting bot. You can contact us on the chat in order to be added to its trail.
On week-41,from October 15 to October 22, we rewarded 64 different authors who have written 155 different articles. The authors who received both a
