"We expect something closer to 30,000 years ago." Agriculture emerged between 10,000 and 5,000 years ago, although there is evidence that plant cultivation may have begun as early as 23,000 years ago.

The Earth would have been a very ordinary rocky body among the eight planets of our solar system. There are three other such planets in our solar system, Mercury, Venus and Mars, but what is special about the Earth is that it gave birth to life.

In the search for extraterrestrial life, astrobiologists are always looking for the simplest and most robust forms of life that have the best chance of surviving in harsh extraterrestrial environments.

Editor's note: With the decreasing cost of nucleic acid sequencing and the rapid development of technology, macrogenome sequencing is expected to enter clinical applications. In addition to studying the human microbiome, the application of macrogenome sequencing is changing the way doctors diagnose and treat diseases. So what are the current problems facing macrogenome sequencing? And how should it be developed in the future?

Life on Earth has undergone 4 billion years of evolution. Evolution will not stop, and the pace of human evolution is likely to accelerate further. Evolutionary biologists at the University of Bath in the UK predict that our lifespan, appearance, brain size, personality, and standards of beauty will change very dramatically in the future. Humans are not currently the final form humans were created after 4 billion years of evolution, which is incredible.

In May 2021, a report of a possible reignition of the Elephant's Foot under Chernobyl sent people into a panic. Why is it still possible that it could reignite after so many years?

As scientific research enters the 21st century, scientists are trying to use "rational conceit" to truly solve the mystery of the brain and mind: can the brain's information encoding and storage, neuronal transmission and control of emotional perception be linked to computer science?

Previously unreleased photos reveal signs of 8,000-year-old mummies, the earliest evidence ever found in the world. About 60 years ago, an archaeologist photographed several skeletons buried in an 8,000-year-old tomb in southern Portugal. Now, new analysis of these previously unpublished photos shows that the oldest human mummies are not from Egypt or even Chile, but from Europe.
