| 500-million year-old species offers insights into the lives of ancient legged worms Posted: 30 Jan 2017 07:47 PM PST A new species of lobopodian, a worm-like animal with soft legs from the Cambrian period (541 to 485 million years ago), has been described for the first time from fossils found in the Burgess Shale in the Canadian Rocky Mountains. |
| Bag-like sea creature was humans' oldest known ancestor Posted: 30 Jan 2017 08:10 AM PST Researchers have identified traces of what they believe is the earliest known prehistoric ancestor of humans -- a microscopic, bag-like sea creature, which lived about 540 million years ago. |
| Both push and pull drive our galaxy's race through space Posted: 30 Jan 2017 08:09 AM PST What is propelling the Milky Way's race through space? By 3-D mapping the flow of galaxies through space, researchers found that the Milky Way galaxy is speeding away from a large, previously unidentified region of low density. |
| Substantial evidence of holographic universe Posted: 30 Jan 2017 05:32 AM PST A UK, Canadian and Italian study has provided what researchers believe is the first observational evidence that our universe could be a vast and complex hologram. Theoretical physicists and astrophysicists, investigating irregularities in the cosmic microwave background (the 'afterglow' of the Big Bang), have found there is substantial evidence supporting a holographic explanation of the universe -- in fact, as much as there is for the traditional explanation of these irregularities using the theory of cosmic inflation. |
