Description
Archaeologists have confirmed for the first time that ancient Romans were mining gold in Spain's Pyrenees, and new ancient DNA research from Argentina reveals that tight-knit family bonds were the secret weapon that helped early Andean communities survive climate collapse and disease. In space news, the James Webb Space Telescope has detected a rare Saturn-sized planet with Earth-like temperatures and a methane-rich atmosphere that defies all existing categories. A decades-old heart medication derived from a common plant has emerged as a potential game-changer for heart failure patients worldwide — and it costs just ten cents. Meanwhile, scientists are reshaping our understanding of aging with new discoveries about 'zombie cells' and a surprising diet study showing that just four weeks of simple changes may reverse biological aging in older adults.
