  1. πŸ¦— NEW: Scientists reconstructed likely calls from 20 fossilized #insects representing nine #Jurassic species found in Inner #Mongolia and #China.

    Most produced low-frequency #sounds similar to modern #crickets, while Sigmaboilus peregrinus may have chirped at 20-22 kHz. The #findings suggest ultrasonic #communication existed before #bats and may have evolved in response to several #predators.

  6. πŸ’πŸ»β€β™€οΈ TIL: 🌠πŸ”₯ Researchers from #SETI and #NASA Ames analyzed 75 #meteorite falls to map how #space #rocks change during atmospheric entry.

    They identified seven stages involving increased brightness, melting, fragmentation, and mass loss. The #findings clarify terms including #meteoroid, #meteor, and meteorite, and could support planetary defense planning.

  7. Very fascinating new #findings from a #molecular point of view about the 2015 discovered new species of #hominid, #Homo #naledi, found in the #RisingStarcave in South Africa. According to anatomical characters, an #age of about 2,5 million years was estimated. Read about first #moleculardata of the specimen in the linked article.
