Today’s stories include Discoveries about Ancient Human Evolution Win 2022 Nobel Prize to  Exotic Atoms Can Transform Into Windows Into The Nature Of The Universe to Is the Universe Fine Tuned for Life and the Mind, and much more.

Super-Earths can be larger, more common, and more habitable that Earth. – and astronomers are discovering more of the billions they think are out there, reports Chris Impey at the University of Arizona. “One planet is 30% larger than Earth and orbits its star in less than three days. The second is 70% larger than Earth and could host a deep sea. These two exoplanets are super-Earths – more massive than the Earth but smaller than ice giants like Uranus and Neptune.”

Exotic Atoms Transform Into Windows into The Nature Of The UniverseDiscoverr.com reports Large atoms should feel the gravitational effects of the energy in vacuum. But physicists’ attempts to measure it have puzzlingly come up empty.”

Can stringy physics save the universe’s destruction? reports Paul Sutter for Space.com. “Our universe may be fundamentally unstable. The vacuum of time-space could suddenly find a new ground, which would trigger a cataclysmic change in the physics of our universe. Or not. A new understanding inspired by string theory shows that our universe may be more stable than we previously thought.”

Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 2022: Ancient Human Evolution won by discoveries–Svante Pääbo’s work on sequencing the DNA of Neandertals and Denisovans, which won the 2022 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, revealed surprising interbreeding among human species, reports Scientific American.

Gamma Rays from a dwarf galaxie solve an astronomical problemSpace.com’s Roland Crocker reports. “A glowing blob known as “the cocoon,” which appears to be inside one of the enormous gamma-ray emanations from the center of our galaxy dubbed the “Fermi bubbles,” has puzzled astronomers since it was discovered in 2012.”

The solution to the information paradox could unlock quantum gravity, unification of force and quantum gravity.-“Black holes can’t trash info about what they swallow—and that’s a problem,” reports Paul Sutter for Ars Technica.

Does the body hold the key to understanding consciousness? The Guardian asks. “A new understanding of the fundamental connection between mind and body explains phenomena such as phantom limbs, and has surprising implications.”

A protogalaxy in the Milky Way may be our galaxy’s original nucleus –A population of stars at the galactic center is the oldest known in the galaxy, a study finds reports Science News.

Infinity is back. Or rather, it never (ever, ever…) went away.For iAi.com, Peter Cameron writes that mathematicians are able to understand the infinite as a concept. However, cosmologists, physicists, and cosmologists find it more difficult to grasp the infinite in nature.
