Leipzig University Repatriates Skulls of Black New Orleanians Sent for Racial Research
In 2023, Leipzig University returned 19 skulls of Black New Orleanians, who died between 1871 and 1872, that were sent to Germany for research on racial brain size differences in the late 1800s; they will be memorialized in New Orleans with a jazz funeral.

Human Evolution on Mars: A Likely Scenario
Human evolution continues; populations adapt to new environments through natural selection, as seen in high-altitude populations and those with lighter skin. Martian colonists will likely face new selective pressures, resulting in genetic adaptation over time.

Climate Change Extends Extreme Heat by One Month for Half the World
A new study found that human-caused climate change led to an extra month of extreme heat for 49% of the world's population (nearly four billion people) between May 2024 and May 2025, with the highest number of extra heat days recorded in Aruba (45 additional days).

New Research Suggests Megalodon Was 80 Feet Long and Sleek
A new study suggests the extinct megalodon shark, previously thought to be up to 50 feet long, could have reached 80 feet (24 meters), with a sleeker body shape resembling a lemon shark rather than a great white, according to a study published Sunday in the journal Palaeontologia Electronica.
