Highlights

• Exoplanet Terraforming: A study in the Astrophysical Journal identified five artificial greenhouse gases that could indicate terraforming on exoplanets, potentially revealing advanced civilizations through techno signatures.
• Titan’s Liquid Seas: Research in Science simulated shoreline erosion on Titan, suggesting waves on its seas similar to Earth’s, advancing understanding of liquid bodies beyond Earth.
• Macaque Behavior Post-Hurricane: Scientific observations showed increased tolerance among Macaque monkeys in Puerto Rico after a hurricane reduced shade availability, linking tolerance to higher survival rates.
• Beluga Whale Rescue: Two beluga whales, Plombir and Miranda, were evacuated from Ukraine to Spain amid war. Due to local conflict impacts, they underwent a complex journey involving road travel and a 6-seater plane.
• New Dinosaur and Ancient Worm Discovery: Paleontology news highlighted the discovery of Loki ceratops, a ceratopsian dinosaur with unique frill ornamentations, and Entosphenus, an ancient filter-feeding arthropod relative from Cambrian rocks in Canada.
