Please Stop Jamming Coins Into The Rocky Cracks Of Legendary Giant's Causeway
Please Stop Jamming Coins Into The Rocky Cracks Of Legendary Giant's CausewayTourists have recently developed a troubling tradition of jamming coins into the rocks at Giant’s Causeway in Northern Ireland. While seemingly harmless, this practice is detracting from the site’s natural beauty and physically damaging the ancient geological formation.These are the chief findings from a report by the British Geological Survey that found forcing coins into the cracks and joints of the Giant’s...
We're A Step Closer To Knowing Who Made The Earliest Known Stone Tools
We're A Step Closer To Knowing Who Made The Earliest Known Stone ToolsThe Oldowan stones are believed to be the oldest known examples of stone tool industry in the world. Their development around 2-3 million years ago represents a significant moment in our evolutionary history as it demonstrates the first evidence of cultural behaviour. But while the stone tools themselves are well known among archaeologists and other researchers, their creators’ exact identity remains a mystery. Now, a new...
World's Oldest Fingerprint, Bioacoustics Could Give Us “A Peek Into The Language Of Wolves”, And Much More This Week
World's Oldest Fingerprint, Bioacoustics Could Give Us “A Peek Into The Language Of Wolves”, And Much More This WeekThis week, scientists have proposed infecting another world with life to see what happens, we’re starting to understand the ancient Incas’ mysterious string “writing” system, and a patient who received an infected injection nearly 50 years ago has only now suffered the effects of a severe prion disease. Finally, we ask, if the human brain is like a computer, does it have a...
These Little Birds Are All But Extinct – But There Is Still Time To Save Them
It's Not Too Late To Save One Of The Rarest Birds On EarthWoolly mammoths, Tasmanian tigers, not-really-dire wolves – increasingly, genomics has revealed itself as a major potential player in the quest to revive long-extinct species. But here’s a question: what if we could use it to help avoid the loss of entire species in the first place? Wouldn’t that be, you know, better?According to a new study led by San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance and Smithsonian’s National Zoo and Conservation Biology...

"Necrobotics" Turns Dead Spider Corpses Into Biohybrid Robots
Scientists Turn Dead Spider Corpses Into Biohybrid NecrobotsDead spiders tend to curl up in a rather creepy clawed position, but beyond looking a little ominous, it seems their lifeless bodies may have useful applications in robotics. Scientists from Rice University have harnessed the unusual locomotion mechanism of wolf spiders to create a type of robotics they’ve coined “necrobotics”. That’s right. Scientists are making robots out of dead spiders.The necrobots are featured in a 2022 paper...
Why Even Traveling Close To The Speed Of Light Is So Hard
Why Even Traveling Close To The Speed Of Light Is So HardWherever you stand on the practicality of settling Mars, it’s really quite a small ambition compared to dreams of settling other star systems. There are a great many engineering, and arguably social, problems to solve to create a base on another planet within the Solar System, but when it comes to interstellar travel the barriers are scientific as well as technical. Most people are familiar with the problem of the speed of light in a...

First Evidence For Chubby Cheeks In Dinosaurs Challenges Our Understanding Of How They Chewed
Great News Everybody! Some Dinosaurs May Have Had Lovely Chubby CheeksWhen we think of dinosaurs, images of bones and lean, reptile-like beasts come to mind, but a new study may have just revealed a softer side to dinosaurs: chubby cheeks. Technically known as soft buccal tissue, it’s being described as an “unexpected” find, changing what we know about how their lower jaw connected to the rest of the skull.As mammals, we humans pack some sizable cheeks on either side of our faces. There’s...
The 2021 "Heat Dome" Killed Her Mother. Now, She's Suing The Oil Companies Responsible
Big Oil Faces First-Ever Wrongful Death Lawsuit Over Its Role In Global WarmingIt was June of 2021, and the Pacific Northwest was melting. Caught in a freak “heat dome”, temperatures in the normally mild region were soaring to unprecedented highs. The mercury hit triple figures in Fahrenheit for four straight weeks; in Canada, temperatures got to 49.6°C (121.3°F); it was so hot, in fact, that experts at the time figured they must have made a mistake with their models, saying that accurate...
If They Take Fluoride Out Of The Water, What Could Happen To Americans’ Teeth?
This Is What Could Happen To Americans’ Teeth If They Take Fluoride Out Of The WaterWater fluoridation has arguably never been a hotter topic in US political and scientific circles. Since first being introduced in Michigan in 1945, the addition of fluoride to public drinking water has been celebrated as a big win for oral health, but has also attracted fierce criticism. Now, with moves being made to ban fluoridation, scientists have projected the potential impact that could have on the...
