Why do women feel the cold more? It’s evolution, so men keep a distance – study
Peer-reviewed Israeli research suggests males and females are programmed to prefer different temperatures; keeping the sexes apart curbs aggression, improves evolutionary chances

A Warning Sign of a Mass Extinction Event Is on the Rise, Scientists Say
Toxic microbial blooms thrived during the Great Dying, the most severe extinction in Earth’s history, and they are proliferating again due to human activity.

The Biggest Simulation of the Universe Yet Stretches Back to the Big Bang
Named Uchuu, or Japanese for “outer space,” the simulation covers 13.8 billion years and will help scientists study how dark matter drives cosmic evolution.

All Living Snakes Evolved From a Few Survivors of Asteroid That Killed the Dinosaurs
Research from the Milner Center for Evolution suggests modern snakes evolved from a handful of ancestors that survived the asteroid that killed the dinosaurs. A new study suggests that all living snakes evolved from a handful of species that survived the giant asteroid impact that wiped out the d

Plants Didn’t Evolve Gradually – They Evolved Complexity in Two Dramatic Bursts 250-Million-Years Apart
A Stanford-led study reveals that rather than evolving gradually over hundreds of millions of years, land plants underwent major diversification in two dramatic bursts, 250 million years apart. The first occurred early in plant history, giving rise to the development of seeds, and the second took pl
Mathematical Analysis of Fruit Fly Wings Hints at Evolution’s Limits | Quanta Magazine
A painstaking study of wing morphology shows both the striking uniformity of individuals in a species and a subtle pattern of linked variations that evolution can exploit.

Pandemic, science, vaccination, Darwinism and the right: are scientists hopeless idiots or what? From suspicion of Darwinism to suspicions of scientists to suspicions of vaccines… – 1848+: The End(s) of History
The current pandemic in the US is a puzzle in the sphere of vaccination. Tens of millions refuse vaccination in what is seen as irrationalism. So it is, but consider the issue of evolution. The the…
