Ancient mud cracks on Mars point to conditions favorable for life
Did life once exist on Mars? Today, the planet is frigid, dry, and inhospitable. But billions of years ago, water flowed through rivers and filled lakes. Now, the discovery of distinctive mud cracks on the planet’s surface suggest ancient Mars cycled through sustained wet and dry seasons for millions of years. Not only would the climate have been habitable, scientists say, but the cycling might have also given the basic chemistry of life a boost. The discovery, reported today in Nature , is compelling evidence for an Earth-like climate on early Mars and presents “thought-provoking” theories about the...

How to Watch Tonight ’ s Supermoon —and Why It ’ s So Special
The sturgeon living in the Great Lakes don’t have a lot to do with the moon—or at least they didn’t until the Algonquin Native American tribe came along. The Algonquins discovered that sturgeon were most plentiful in the lakes in August, and so they paid a small tribute to that fact. When a full moon appeared in the sky in that month, they dubbed it a sturgeon moon. But it wasn’t just any full moon that would earn the honorific. It had to be a so-called supermoon—one of which will occur today, Aug. 1. [time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”] Supermoons are striking cosmic spectacles, a...

Explainer: Why the U.S. has banned funding for Chinese lab at center of pandemic origin dispute
In a move that has more symbolic than practical impact, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has imposed new sanctions on a Chinese lab at the center of the debate about the origin of the COVID-19 pandemic.
