This digest is the 34th episode of the #stemng digest series where we bring to you some of the best posts under the #stemng tag in the past week.
For those that do not know yet, stemng is a sub-community of steemSTEM, a community-driven project which seeks to promote well-written and informative Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics posts by Nigerians on Steemit. The project involves submitting quality STEM-related posts to the steemSTEM management for upvoting and resteeming where applicable.
More information about stemng activities are found here, while details of what it means to be part of steemSTEM can be found here, as well.
As we usually do, we have sifted through the stemng tag and even though there were several good posts to choose from, below are the posts that stood out for week #34.

The 
Hive account@emperorhassy writes on measurement, a vital part of the everyday life. Imagine if there is no way to calculate time, or get the precision in bolts and screws which makes a 13-mm bolt made in China to fit a 13-mm screw that was manufactured in the USA. For more details on other measured variables, do visit the link above.

The human bones have been known to survive thousands of years and remain intact with minor deterioration. The 
Hive account@oluwolelide's post looks at some of the factors that keep it preserved over the years.
The 
Hive account@ikchris takes us on a journey to better understand the principle behind the light, and the voyage includes some of the fundamentals of photoelectric effect; a process an exited material gives off light particles (photons).
