🔬 Scientists Just Sequenced 40,000-Year-Old Mammoth RNA—And That Changes Everything

Today's episode unveils a groundbreaking paleontological first: researchers have successfully isolated RNA from Ice Age woolly mammoths, revealing active gene expression from 40,000 years ago. We also explore how a 180-year-old assumption about light has been proven wrong, with magnetic components playing a far larger role than ever imagined. Plus, new findings show how dietary emulsifiers during pregnancy affect offspring for life, a breakthrough in pain management that could eliminate side effects, and how scientists are mapping brain pathways to improve GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic. From fusion energy milestones to ancient Martian water and hidden Antarctic ecosystems, today's discoveries span from deep time to the cutting edge of tomorrow's technology.Subscribe to Science News Daily Newsletter: https://science-news-daily.beehiiv.com/Love Science?
