** Lost and Found In space



In a cosmic caper worthy of sci-fi, NASA recently recovered two tomatoes that had been lost for nearly a year aboard the International Space Station. These intrepid space-fruits, casualties of a harvesting mishap, went missing in action last May after astronaut Frank Rubio accidentally misplaced them. Months of searching seemed to have dashed their return to Earth, leaving the fate of this pioneering space produce a delicious mystery. However, during a celebratory event for the station's 25th anniversary, a bit of cosmic housekeeping uncovered the lost bounty. Tucked away in a plastic bag, slightly squished and dehydrated, the intrepid tomatoes emerged victorious, their unexpected reappearance sparking both relief and amusement. While their nutritional value after this interstellar odyssey may be diminished, their story stands as a testament to the resourcefulness of both astronauts and tomatoes, proving that even in the weightlessness of space, nothing is truly lost until it's found again.

*Webb telescope finds Milky Way-like galaxy in early universe*



An international team of astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope has discovered the most distant barred spiral galaxy similar to the Milky Way that has been observed to date. The galaxy, named ceers-2112, is believed to have formed just 680 million years after the Big Bang, when the universe was only about 5% of its current age. This finding suggests that barred spiral galaxies like the Milky Way were able to form much earlier than previously thought.

Ceers-2112 is located in the Cosmic Evolution Early Release Science (CEERS) survey field, which is a deep field of view that Webb is observing in order to study the early universe. The team of astronomers used Webb's Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) to image ceers-2112, and were able to detect the galaxy's spiral arms and central bar.

The discovery of ceers-2112 challenges our understanding of how galaxies form and evolve in the early universe. Previous models suggested that barred spiral galaxies like the Milky Way could not form until the universe was much older. However, the discovery of ceers-2112 shows that these types of galaxies could form much earlier than previously thought.

This discovery is one of the many exciting findings that have been made with the James Webb Space Telescope since it began operations in July 2022. Webb is the most powerful telescope ever built, and it is providing astronomers with unprecedented views of the universe. Future observations with Webb will help us to learn more about ceers-2112 and other early galaxies, and to better understand how galaxies form and evolve.

(4) NASA nails trickiest job on newly -launched space telescope
(NASA aced the most complicated, critical job on its newly launched space telescope Tuesday: unrolling and stretching a sunshade the size of a tenis court. The 7-tonne James Webb Space Telescope is so big that the sunshield and the primary gold-plated mirror had to be folded for launch. The sunshield is especially unwieldy -it spans 70 feet by 46 feet to keep all the infrared, heat-sensing science instruments in constant subzero shadow.
The mirrors are next up for release this weekend. It is the biggest and most powerful observatory ever launched -100 times more powerful than the Hubble Space Telescope -enabling it to peer back to almost the beginning of time. Considered Hubble's successor, Webb will attempt to haunt down light from the universe's first stars and galaxies, created 3.7 billion years ago.

Researchers identify role of white blood cell  markers in sepsis -related complications.
Researchers at the IIT Roorkee, have identified the role of the white blood cell markers in sepsis -related complications which help in detecting stages of sepsis and deciding appropriate treatment.
Neutrophils, monocytes, and macrophages are white blood cells that act as scavengers of dead cells and foreign bodies such as bacteria and other pathogens.
They move from the blood to the site of infection to mop up the disease -causing foreign matters. However, in uncontrolled and severe infection, commonly called "Sepsis' there is abnormal activation and localisation of these immune cells.
As a result, these cells form ensembles, move around the body, and get deposited in important organs such as the lung, kidney and liver, which could lead to multi-organ failure or even death. Given the importance of monocytes, macrophages, and neutrophils in sepsis, it is important to understand the mechanism of migration of such cells to detect the stages of inflamation and sepsis. The researcher's group used two mouse models of sepsis to show the role of integrins in sepsis.

Fossils and ancient DNA paint a vibrant picture of human origins



That fossil wasn’t enough to confirm Africa as our homeland. Since that discovery, paleoanthropologists have amassed many thousands of fossils, and the evidence over and over again has pointed to Africa as our place of origin. Genetic studies reinforce that story. African apes are indeed our closest living relatives, with chimpanzees more closely related to us than to gorillas. In fact, many scientists now include great apes in the hominid family, using the narrower term “hominin” to refer to humans and our extinct cousins.
