Scientists find evidence of flowing water on Ryugu’s ancient parent asteroid. 'It was a genuine surprise!'
"This forces us to rethink the starting conditions for our planet’s water system."

We evolved to match local micronutrient levels, which may be a problem
Most human populations evolved to cope with low or high local levels of micronutrients such as zinc, but these localised adaptations might now be problematic

Gravitational waves finally prove Stephen Hawking's black hole theorem
An exceptionally loud collision between two black holes has been detected by the LIGO gravitational wave observatory, enabling physicists to test a theorem postulated by Stephen Hawking in 1971

NASA hasn't found life on Mars yet – but signs are promising
A rock found last year on the surface of Mars offered tantalising evidence that life once existed on the Red Planet. Now scientists have found yet more evidence that could point to the existence of ancient organisms – but we can't know for certain without returning samples to Earth

Asteroid Ryugu once had liquid water flowing through it
Samples retrieved from asteroid Ryugu indicate that it once had flowing water in far greater volumes than previously thought possible, suggesting that similar objects may have played a role in delivering vast quantities of water to Earth
