Low Iron Levels in Pregnant Mice Cause Sex Reversal in Male Offspring
Japanese researchers discovered that severely low iron levels in pregnant mice (60% reduction) caused sex reversal in some XY male offspring, developing female sex organs. This challenges the understanding of mammalian sex determination as solely genetic.

Gas Giant Found Orbiting Tiny Star Challenges Planet Formation Theories
An international team of astronomers discovered a gas giant planet, TOI-6894b, slightly larger than Saturn but half its mass, orbiting a small red dwarf star (TOI-6894) with only 20% of our sun's mass, challenging existing planet formation theories and highlighting the diversity of exoplanetary syst...
