What do the Tau think of humans?
In place of the relatively low value the Imperium places on the individual Human life, the T’au seem to believe that everyone has a place, and everyone matters. A perfect example of this process occurred during the Taros Campaign.
How are humans treated in the Tau Empire?
They’re treated well and are respected for what they bring to the Empire. They’re required to work hard but so are all members of the Empire regardless of race, and they’re treated much, much better than the Imperium treats them.
Are Tau stronger than humans?
Physical strength and size varies between the Tau castes with the Fire Caste being the strongest of their kind, roughly the size and slightly weaker than an average baseline human because the Tau homeworld has gravity slightly weaker than that of Terra. Only two female Tau have ever been reported.
Are there human tau?
Tau is a microtubule-associated protein (MAP) that acts as a neurite microtubule stabilizer [9, 61]. Human Tau protein isoforms are expressed from a unique gene (MAPT) located at chromosome 17 [30, 42] and has at least 16 exons [2, 3].
Do Space Marines join the Tau?
Loyalist Space marines never would join, although they will fight alongside against a more immediate threat. Space marines are born and trained only for war and battle much like orks which is why they have no lasting place in the tau empire and the greater good.
How long does a Tau live?
A recent experiment, by Gary Feldman, George Trilling and their collaborators at the PEP electron‐positron collider at SLAC has determined the lifetime of the tau. They find it to be (4.6±1.9)×10−13 sec, a value entirely consistent with the universality of the weak interaction.
What does tau do to the brain?
Tau is a protein that helps stabilize the internal skeleton of nerve cells (neurons) in the brain. This internal skeleton has a tube-like shape through which nutrients and other essential substances travel to reach different parts of the neuron.
Is Tau soluble?
The tau proteins (or τ proteins, after the Greek letter with that name) are a group of six highly soluble protein isoforms produced by alternative splicing from the gene MAPT (microtubule-associated protein tau).
What do Space Marines think of the Tau?
It could be said that the Space Marines view the Tau as honourable warriors as hinted in the Damocles Gulf Crusade, but I have a feeling that the Astartes also know the Tau are a force of order and a xenos race that the Emperor, if he were still around would view with a kind eye.
