Perseverance has taken a selfie on Mars; showing a great image of itself against a backdrop of the Jezero Crater Rim and the local terrain. Images released also show a view of the Martian landscape from 46 stitched together photos using its binocular Mastcam-Z. https://nautil.us/perseverance-snaps-a-selfie-on-mars-1280734 -
#archaeology #mammoths #AncientHumans
The remains of 5 mammoths have been found in Austria. Interestingly the remains of three included, dismembered but intact, tusks of the animals. It is thought that the tusks were being used to create ivory spear heads. the find is helping archaeologists to better understand how humans and Mammoths lived just before the peak of the last Ice Age. The mammoths were butchered using stone tools. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/mammoths-butchered-ivory-tusks-unearthed-austria/

#NASA #Artemis2 #moon #astronomy #photography
NASA has released over 12,000 images from the recent trip around the moon. The photos were taken using the Nikon D5 SLR, Nikon Z9 mirrorless and the iPhone 17. Many of the images are very similar, out of focus or over exposed, but even they are precious- let's face it every picture does tell a story! Here you can look at some of the favourites picked out and you can find out how to see more. https://www.iflscience.com/nasa-releases-over-12000-images-taken-during-artemis-ii-check-out-our-favorites-and-discover-how-you-can-see-even-more-83419 -
#earth #glaciers #science #antartica
The British Antarctic Survey has released an academic paper about glaciers. In it they explain why glaciers are not sterile but hugely important to Earth. Meltwater not only contain large amounts of rock 'flour'- tiny particles of rock abut also organic carbon and nutrients to ecosystems down their paths. This has a huge effect on the biochemistry, ecology and ecosystems through streams and fjords.https://www.bas.ac.uk/data/our-data/publication/glacier-biogeochemical-cycling-and-downstream-impacts/

#science #antartica #technology #globalWarming
The British Antarctic Survey have been assisting a scientist to study how global warming affects ocean currents and thus also affect fish populations. Combining data taken on a survey trip with computer modelling it has been found that melting glaciers move young fish out into the wider oceans and so their chances of survival reduce. A schematic of the findings can be found here: https://www.bas.ac.uk/media-post/ocean-currents-shape-fish-survival-in-south-georgias-fjords/ -
#science #technology #antartica
Technology designed to pick up radio waves from space and placed at Antartica to avoid background interference has been receiving radio waves. Unexpectedly the waves appear to come from the ice. The machine known as ANITA has potentially picked up tau neutrinos but mathematical models cast doubt on this. It is hoped another detector known as PUEO may be launched into the air later this year or into next year to help solve the problem.

#nature #science #Jurassic #palaeontology
An amphibian that lived about 150 million years ago has been discovered in Portugal. It was no bigger than 5cms and hunted its prey in a similar way to modern Chameleons. It has been named Nabia civicscientrix in honour of the scientists who helped to uncover the remains. Scientists are learning more about the amphibians that roamed the landscape during the late Jurassic Age. https://www.nhm.ac.uk/discover/news/2026/january/jurassic-amphibian-with-projectile-tongue-named-as-a-new-species.html -
#archaeology #history #looking_back
An amateur metal detectorist is looking back to some of his exciting finds in this UK article. A find of a Roman coin in the 1990s led to the discovery of a Roman villa estate complete with two bath houses and mosaic floors. Later he was to find an Anglo-Saxon sword in a nearby field to the villa, which still had a hand attached to it. Over the years he has also found gold and silver including a pendant. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c7vm74gzn2ro -
#sience #health #technology #AI
A study has found that an advanced AI model has outperformed doctors in diagnosing patients and recommending the next steps for treatment. This was even in the chaotic, messy world of an emergency room. Those who were examining in the results of diagnoses were unaware of whether a human or AI had completed the task. The AI scored an average of 89 out of 100, though figures vary according to the point of the hospital journey. https://studyfinds.com/ai-outperforms-doctors-diagnosing-patients-harvard-stanford-study/ -

Today should see 755,000 gallons of super-cold propellants loaded into Artemis II. This is part of a simulated countdown and is a step closer to sending 4 astronauts on a 10 day voyage to the far side of the moon and back to earth. If the test goes well it hints at the chance of the launch taking place later this month. https://arstechnica.com/space/2026/02/nasa-gears-up-for-one-more-key-test-before-launching-artemis-ii-to-the-moon/ -
#polarbears #artic #globalWarming #nature #science
Polar bears are gaining fat despite the Artic shrinking according to a new study. Polar bears need fat in order to survive periods without food. It is theorised that they are hunting land-based prey instead. This will include reindeer and walrus. But it also means that they can hunt seals which will accumulate in higher numbers on decreasing areas of ice. https://www.discovermagazine.com/adult-polar-bears-in-svalbard-are-gaining-fat-even-as-arctic-sea-ice-shrinks-48612 -
Vegetarian diets of our ancestors.
#Science #Vegetarians #diet #early_life
A new study has found that Australopithecus diet was mainly plant based and that it was a few million years later that a hunter lifestyle for meat was followed. It is possible that some animal protein was gained by eating eggs, but on the whole Australopithecus ate a vegetarian diet. Examination of teeth enamel found that the nitrogen levels were low indicating a diet comprising of vegetation.

#Tsunamis #science #seiche #climatechange
For 9 days in 2023 scientists picked up a pulse every 90 seconds. This remained a mystery. It happened again just a month later. Using technology and satellites they were able to establish that the pulse came from massive waves created by landslides. The landslides created waves that bounced back and forth causing the pulse every 90 seconds. So they are seiche events rather than Tsunamis and are a result of climate change. https://www.discovermagazine.com/planet-earth/the-earth-mysteriously-pulsed-every-90-seconds-for-nine-days-in-2023-we-now

#Scence #technology #History #Paleolithic
A pilot project to scan material on an Iraqi desert has found many over 850 artefacts including hand axes. It is hoped that the finds and continued searches will help to explain how early humans evolved and their behaviour. This area has seen little research in the past. The team hope to continue their research after finding more complex tools called Levallois Flakes.

Archaeologists have found a rare carving depicting an Assyrian emperor surrounded by deities. The slab was found in the throne room of the North palace near Mosul. The slab was not only remarkable for its size, but also for the depictions. the fact that the slab was buried has probably helped it to survive. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/science/archaeology/assyrian-king-stone-carving-gods-b2751495.html

Who made resolutions this New Year? An article is discussing how to keep resolutions. Most are broken within 14 days. But technology and science can help us to stay on track and develop new habits. So listening to a podcast or audio book may help one to keep up with their resolution to exercise. Book trackers can help to achieve a goal of reading so many books a year. https://www.scientificamerican.com/podcast/episode/how-to-keep-your-new-years-resolutions-behavioral-science-tips-that-work/ -

A beautiful 2.33 carat gem is on display at the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History. At first glance it appears to be a large ruby- but it is actually a very rare red diamond. This diamond is known as the Winston Diamond. Only a staggering 1 in 25 million diamonds are red. This one originally was owned by the Cartier family before going to India. It was then bought by Ronald Winston and it was worn by Brooke Shields. https://www.popsci.com/science/red-diamond-smithsonian/

A purple pigment was worth more than gold in the Roman world. Roman emperors threatened death if anyone else used it, the Catholic church used it for religious clothing and texts. Now it has been found in the coffins of two babies buried in York, England. 1700 years ago liquid gypsum as per burial customs was used to seal the coffins, but also preserved Tyrian purple dye; made from thousands of murex snail shells. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/in-the-ancient-world-this-pigment-was-worth-more-than-gold-archaeologists-discovered-it-buried-with-babies-in-roman-coffins-180988678/ -

An image taken by NASA's TESS (Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite) spacecraft shows 6,000 planets beyond our solar system. TESS launched in 2018 has been scanning looking for exoplanets. Whilst known that other planets must be orbiting suns, exoplanets were only confirmed at the end of the 1990s. Now NASA has confirmed that there are over 6,000 and that every star in the sky has at least one planet orbiting it. https://www.skyatnightmagazine.com/news/tess-all-sky-mosaic-6000-exoplanets -

A subatomic particle called the neutrino has been the focus of scientists for the last few decades. These particles are 'ghost-like' in that whilst 100 trillion of them pass through our bodies every second, they do not interact with us. Smaller than an atom, they may hold the key to the origin of matter. Part of their elusiveness is that they rarely interact with other particles, even photons.https://www.skyatnightmagazine.com/space-science/ghost-particle -

A little time ago came the news that humans and dogs have bonded for many more thousands of years than thought. Now its been discovered the same of true of horses. It was thought that horses were domesticated 4,000 years ago, but this has now been pushed back by 1000 years. Using DNA and archaeology they found that taming began as early as 3000 BCE if not earlier. But this process was a stop-start process. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/horse-domestication-taming-riding-history-b2976545.html -

Tonight there is the chance to see the Flower Moon- named after the fact that it is visible at Spring. The full moon may appear larger than normal but this is due to the Moon Illusion. May is also the month we get to see two full moons in the month as a full moon appears every 29.5 days. See link for times of when the moon will rise for North America, Uk and Ireland, Europe and Asia. https://www.skyatnightmagazine.com/news/flower-moon-2026 -

A study has found that levels of HDL cholesterol is linked to glaucoma. Normally HDL is referred to as good cholesterol and helps to protect against heart disease. However this study found that those with the higher levels of HDL were more likely to have larger waistlines which in turn increased the risk of glaucoma. However this only applied to people who were over the age of 55.

Some gold coins that were minted in Peru in 1707 may help to solve a shipwreck mystery. The coins were found in the stern of a ship some 2,000 feet below the sea. The knowledge that these coins were minted in 1707 in Peru helps to prove that the ship is the San Jose which sank off the Columbian coast in 1708. Using technology such as a remote vehicle and photogrammetry the coins were examined whilst in situ. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/these-gold-coins-may-solve-the-mystery-of-the-worlds-richest-shipwreck-confirming-its-identity-as-a-legendary-18th-century-galleon-180986856/
