Microbe from 2 billion years ago could be the ancestor of all life on Earth
All animals, plants, fungi, and people may trace their family tree back to one tiny microbe that lived about 2 billion years ago. By comparing DNA from obscure, deep-sea microbes, scientists have argued that this ancient ancestor sits in a group called the Asgard archaea. Complex life forms, including all animals, plants, fungi and humans belong

AI-powered satellites point to a massive lithium resource at a Canadian project
Fleet Space says its satellite AI expanded Quebec’s Cisco lithium project into a target of 329 million metric tons of ore. That estimate equals a total of 360 million tons and supports a system that can propose drill sites within 48 hours. Why this Canadian lithium matters The work was led by Fleet Space Technologies,

Astronomers find an unexpected compact cluster at the edge of the solar system
Astronomers have found a compact new cluster of objects inside the Kuiper belt, which is a distant band of icy bodies at the edge of our solar system beyond Neptune. The cluster sits 4.0 billion miles from the Sun, about 43 astronomical units. The work was led by Amir Siraj, a doctoral student in astrophysics

Scientists retrieve RNA from an extinct animal, marking a first in genetics research
Scientists in Sweden recovered RNA from an extinct, 130-year-old Tasmanian tiger, also known as a thylacine. They then traced which genes were active in its tissues. DNA can show what genes exist, but gene expression, which genes are active in a tissue, needs RNA in living cells. The study was led by Dr. Marc R.

Suitcase stored in a bank vault for over a century reveals lost Habsburg jewels
A forgotten suitcase in a Canadian bank vault, opened after more than 100 years, contained famous royal jewels and treasures believed to have been lost forever. This was the private jewel collection of the Habsburg family, and the most valuable piece was a light-yellow diamond that weighs just under one ounce. This suitcase once belonged
