NASA's Artemis II mission has just launched four astronauts on the first crewed lunar journey in over fifty years, marking a historic leap toward returning humans to the Moon's surface. Astronomers have also discovered a planetary system arranged in the opposite order of our own solar system, throwing current formation theories into question and forcing a major rethink of how worlds are born. In biology, scientists have identified a metabolic weakness in so-called zombie cells โ€” senescent cells that accumulate and drive aging โ€” potentially unlocking new treatments for age-related disease. Ancient farmers unknowingly bred 'warrior wheat' through unintentional evolutionary pressure, a discovery that could reshape modern crop design. And a new study found that even occasional binge drinking may triple the risk of liver damage, challenging the common assumption that moderation throughout the week cancels out the occasional excess.
