Sahara Meteorites May Be First Fragments of Mercury Found on Earth
Two meteorites found in the Sahara Desert in 2023 are suspected to originate from Mercury, based on compositional similarities with data from the MESSENGER probe, despite a discrepancy in their ages. Confirmation would mark the first identified fragments of Mercury on Earth.

Primate Power Dynamics: Challenging Traditional Notions of Male Dominance
A study of 253 primate populations across 121 species reveals that clear sex dominance is uncommon, challenging the assumption of inherent male dominance in primates; female dominance is linked to factors such as monogamy and arboreal living, while male dominance correlates with physical strength an...
