Paleontologists have uncovered the southernmost fossils ever found of Purgatorius — the earliest known primate relative — forcing a rethink of how quickly our ancient ancestors spread after the dinosaurs vanished. Scientists drilling deep beneath Antarctic ice have retrieved a 23-million-year climate record that could sharpen predictions about future sea-level rise. For the first time, researchers have captured high-resolution images of the protein behind cold and menthol sensations, opening new doors for chronic pain treatment. Ancient DNA from a 2,800-year-old mass grave in Serbia is revealing disturbing details about one of Europe's largest known prehistoric massacres. And new findings suggest Jupiter's moons may have formed with complex organic molecules — potential building blocks of life — already baked in.
