CT scans of toothed bird fossil leads to jaw-dropping discovery
Fossil experts have cooked the goose of a key tenet in avian evolution after finding a premodern bird from more than 65m years ago that could move its beak like modern fowl. The toothy animal was discovered in the 1990s by an amateur fossil collector at a quarry in Belgium and dates to about 66.7m years ago – shortly before the asteroid strike that wiped out non-avian dinosaurs. While the fossil was first described in a study about 20 years ago, researchers re-examining the specimen say they hav
Archaeologists hail ‘dream discovery’ as sarcophagus is unearthed near Cairo
It has lain within a burial chamber, undisturbed, for thousands of years. Now a remarkable Egyptian sarcophagus has emerged from deep beneath the sands near Cairo, to the excitement of archaeologists, who describe it as a hugely significant “dream discovery”. The giant granite sarcophagus is covered in inscriptions dedicated to Ptah-em-wia, who headed the treasury of King Ramses II, Egypt’s mightiest pharaoh. Ola El Aguizy, emeritus professor of the faculty of archaeology at Cairo University, di

‘It’s as if we found oil’: Tuscan town savours discovery of spa trove
Since she was a child, Martina Canuti has been venturing down the steep hill flanking the Tuscan town of San Casciano dei Bagni, known by residents as “the sacred mountain”, to take a dip in the two ancient hot springs famed for their therapeutic benefits. Little did she know that just a few metres away lay a sanctuary built by the Etruscans in the second century BC, containing a trove of treasures that could now reverse the fortunes of this relatively isolated town of 1,400 inhabitants near Sie
Protein discovery on human eggs may shed light on unexplained infertility
A fundamental step in human fertilisation has been discovered by researchers who say it may offer new insights into unexplained infertility. Experts have identified a new protein that is found on the surface of human eggs. Nicknamed Maia, after the Greek goddess of motherhood, the protein appears to be involved in the fusion of sperm and eggs. Prof Harry Moore, of the University of Sheffield, who was the lead investigator of the study, said the findings may help to shed light on cases where fert
Discovery sells GB News stake as directors resign in shake-up
US media group Warner Bros Discovery is to sell its stake in GB News, in a shake-up which has seen the loss-making television channel’s co-founders sell-up and resign as directors, and the remaining backers step forward with a further £60m in cash. The fledgling news channel, which originally said its first £60m fund raising last January would last three years, has tapped Legatum Ventures and hedge fund boss Paul Marshall for more funds after just 18 months. The company also announced that co-fo
Plans for discovery centre on WA island dropped to protect little penguins
The Western Australian government has abandoned plans for a $3.3m “discovery centre” on Penguin Island following a community campaign against the development. Reece Whitby, the minister for environment and climate action, made the announcement on Friday, saying in a statement that following a scientific review and community consultation, the proposed centre would be shifted to the mainland. “The health and welfare of the little penguins is our number-one priority when considering how best to p
Paths of discovery in South Yorkshire: natural and historical wonders meet on Hatfield Moors
“Watch!” Mick Oliver, my guide, takes a big jump on the scrubby ground. To my surprise, the earth ripples beneath our feet. “Did you see the heather vibrate? Just below us the peat is about 95% water,” he says. “We are literally walking on water.” I’m at Hatfield Moors, 13 miles east of Doncaster in South Yorkshire, to explore rare habitat – the UK’s largest lowland raised mire. Oliver, a passionate, active octogenarian and former mining surveyor, is part of a management group responsible for th
A chance discovery ends the trial of Bruce Lehrmann for the alleged rape of Brittany Higgins
The first sign something was amiss in the trial of Bruce Lehrmann came just before 8.30am on Thursday. A note, sent by staff working for the ACT supreme court chief justice, Lucy McCallum, landed in the inboxes of observers, advising the court would be convening at an unusually early time. The email set tongues wagging among the press pack that has camped outside the courtroom for nearly a month. Was a juror sick? Were they deadlocked? Did the jury have a question? Had press coverage from the ni
