Earth has a mysterious triple symmetry that may influence its climate

New Scientist - Space - Wed, 03/06/2026 - 19:00
A circle running along the 27° east and 153° west meridians divides the globe into two halves with equal reflectivity – and this may have implications for solar geoengineering schemes

Keto diet shows real promise for anorexia recovery

New Scientist - Space - Wed, 03/06/2026 - 16:00
Restricting carbohydrates may sound like an unlikely approach to treating anorexia, but following a ketogenic diet was linked to recovery in nearly 75 per cent of people with the eating disorder in a small trial

Ötzi's frozen remains may harbour metabolically active microbes

New Scientist - Space - Wed, 03/06/2026 - 04:00
Researchers studying a 5300-year-old mummified man have identified bacteria that lived in his gut when he was alive, as well as cold-tolerant fungi that colonised his body after death
