Oct 11, 2024 | forbes.com | Carly Miller

Anthropologists at Dartmouth College, studying the fossil record of primates and early humans, along with the effects of play on child development, found that risk-taking play boosts confidence, internal motivation and risk assessment. Thrill-seeking play confers physical benefits like better dexterity, skeletal muscle development, and physical awareness, all benefits that last into adulthood.
The Kosi River Causes Significant Uplift At Mount Everest Each Year

Sep 30, 2024 | forbes.com | Carly Miller

The persistent process of erosion is powerful enough to cause the world’s most intimidating mountain range to rise slowly up out of the mantle, growing in elevation each year. GPS stations and satellite monitoring have measured an acceleration in uplift at Mount Everest and its neighboring peaks, which are growing 2 mm per year. The study published September 30 in Nature Geoscience estimated that Mount Everest has grown between 50 to 150 feet over the last 89,000 years.
AI Discovers 303 Nazca Geoglyphs From Aerial Photos Of the Peruvian Desert

Sep 29, 2024 | forbes.com | Carly Miller

A trained AI model scanned aerial photos of the entire Nazca Pampa region and surrounding deserts, ~50 km inland on the southern coast of Peru, nearly doubling the number of previously known geoglyph artifacts in only six months. Once AI tagged a potential geoglyph, archaeologists spent over 2,600 hours in the field inspecting, mapping, and using drone photography to validate the geoglyph as a discovery.
2-Mile-Deep Ice Core Reveals That Greenland Was Recently Green

Sep 27, 2024 | forbes.com | Carly Miller

The heart of Greenland has recently been green. A two-mile-deep ice core from the very center of Greenland’s ice sheet in Summit, Greenland, produced a fossil assemblage containing an insect’s compound eye, an arctic poppy seed, willow wood matter, fungi, and spike moss. The discovery, made by scientists at the University of Vermont, supports a previously controversial hypothesis that Greenland has not been frozen solid for millions of years.

656-Foot Megatsunami Leaves 25-Foot Waves Reverberating In Greenland Fjord For 9 Days

Sep 23, 2024 | forbes.com | Carly Miller

A megatsunami grew to over 656 feet tall and crashed over the shores of the beautiful and desolate Dickson Fjord on the eastern coast of Greenland on Sept. 16, 2023. The reason this event is newsworthy one year later is that the landslide and resultant megatsunami was only just identified as the source of a mysterious seismic signal that scientists from around the world recorded.

Honeybee Super-Senses Detect Lung Cancer And Distinguish Between The Two Main Types

Jul 23, 2024 | forbes.com | Carly Miller

Honeybees Reliably Classify Two Types of Lung Cancer Using Ultra-Sensitive Antennae as Trace Gas BiosensorsHoneybees, immobilized in tiny bee-neck-sized harnesses, have recently proven that they’re capable of not only instantly detecting lung cancer, but distinguishing between two types of the disease—small-cell and non-small cell. The findings could offer hope for a non-invasive (non-surgical) mechanism to detect cancer in its early stages.
