This is because the species undergoes a process called polyploidization, which is when a single chromosome is duplicated multiple times.

“It has amazing genetic diversity,” study co-author Tim O’Hara, a senior marine curator at Museums Victoria in Australia, told Newsweek.

“Instead of evolving into separate species over time, lineages readily hybridize with each other, so building up a great amount of genetic diversity. But not only that, they sometimes add their genomes together, so end up with four or more copies of each gene,” O’Hara said.

“We can rewind to a previous scene or skip several scenes ahead.”

An worldwide team of scientists claims to have found a means to speed up, slow down, and even reverse the clock of a given system by taking use of the peculiar qualities of the quantum universe, as reported by Spanish newspaper El País.

The scientists from the Austrian Academy of Sciences and the University of Vienna presented their findings in six separate papers. The basic principles of physics do not transfer intuitively onto the subatomic world, which is made up of quantum particles known as qubits, which can exist in several states at the same time, a phenomenon known as quantum entanglement.

PRESTON, United Kingdom — China successfully launched the first batch of 18 satellites Tuesday for the Thousand Sails low Earth orbit communications megaconstellation.

A Long March 6A rocket lifted off from Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center, north China, at 2:42 a.m. Eastern (0642 UTC) Aug. 6. The China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation (CASC) announced launch success just over two hours later.

The Long March 6A upper stage deployed 18 flat panel Qianfan (“Thousand Sails”) satellites into polar orbit for Shanghai Spacecom Satellite Technology (SSST).

Safran Electronics & Defense will establish a new production line for satellite electric propulsion systems in the United States to serve U.S. customers.

WASHINGTON — The U.S. Army is considering the creation of a dedicated space career field for enlisted soldiers, a move that could significantly expand its pool of space experts and better equip land forces to face the technological challenges of modern warfare.

Scientists propose that human consciousness evolved primarily for social survival, enabling better communication and interaction within communities, rather than just individual benefit, challenging traditional views on the evolution of subjective awareness.

Experts suggest that markings on a stone pillar at the 12,000-year-old Göbeklitepe archaeological site in Türkiye probably represent the oldest solar calendar in history, having been established as a memorial to a catastrophic comet strike.

According to a recent study from the University of Edinburgh, the markings at the location might be a record of an astronomical event that marked a significant turning point in human civilization.

Southeast Türkiye’s Göbeklitepe is well-known for its array of enormous, T-shaped stone pillars adorned with animal and abstract symbol carvings. According to recent analysis, some of these carvings might have functioned as a kind of calendar that tracked important celestial events and marked the positions of the sun, moon, and stars.

The artifacts uncovered belong to the time when the Aswan city was destroyed by an enormous flood.
