Astronomers spot an interstellar object zipping through our solar system
PASADENA, California — A newly discovered object speeding through our solar system is sparking excitement among astronomers because it’s not from around here. Believed to be a comet, the object is only the third celestial body from beyond our solar system ever to be observed in our corner of the universe.This interstellar visitor, now officially named 3I/ATLAS, became known when the NASA-funded ATLAS (Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System) telescope in Chile reported spotting it on Tuesday. Since then, astronomers reviewing archival observations from multiple telescopes have tracked the object’s movements as far back as June 14 and found that the comet arrived from the direction of the Sagittarius constellation.The comet’s speed and path through the solar system are two...

Tens of thousands of fans had bought tickets for Taylor Swift's Vienna shows
Syrian charged over plot to attack Taylor Swift Vienna concert
VIENNA — A young Syrian national has been charged with supporting a foreign terror group over a foiled plot to attack a Taylor Swift concert in Vienna last August.Mohamed A, who is described by German authorities as a juvenile and not in custody, is accused of following the ideology of jihadist group Islamic State (IS) and helping another suspect to prepare the attack.Concert organisers called off Taylor Swift's three sold-out gigs on the eve of the first show at Vienna's Ernst Happel Stadium last year, disappointing tens of thousands of fans during her Eras Tour.Authorities arrested several suspects at the time saying they appeared to have been inspired by IS and al-Qaeda."Mohammad A has adhered since April 2024 at the latest to the ideology of the terrorist organisation...

Actor Brad Pitt
Brad Pitt's Los Angeles home 'ransacked', police say
LOS ANGELES — Actor Brad Pitt's home in Los Angeles has been ransacked by a trio of thieves.Three suspects broke into the home in Los Feliz late on Wednesday through a front window and "ransacked the location," according to the Los Angeles Police Department.Police did not confirm the home belonged to the Oscar-winning actor, but the address matched that of a home Pitt purchased in 2023.Authorities said the suspects fled with stolen items, though it's unclear what was taken. The actor was not home at the time of the burglary, US media reported.Pitt was in the UK earlier this week for the London premier of his new film F1, which is released on Friday. He was accompanied by fellow Hollywood star Tom Cruise and Lewis Hamilton, who has seven Formula One World Drivers'...

Work begins to create artificial human DNA from scratch
LONDON — Work has begun on a controversial project to create the building blocks of human life from scratch, in what is believed to be a world first.The research has been taboo until now because of concerns it could lead to designer babies or unforeseen changes for future generations.But now the world's largest medical charity, the Wellcome Trust, has given an initial £10m to start the project and says it has the potential to do more good than harm by accelerating treatments for many incurable diseases.Dr Julian Sale, of the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology in Cambridge, who is part of the project, told BBC News the research was the next giant leap in biology."The sky is the limit. We are looking at therapies that will improve people's lives as they age, that will lead...

The boomerang was found near stones, animal and human bones
World's oldest boomerang doesn't actually come back
WARSAW — The world's oldest boomerang is older than previously thought, casting new light on the ingenuity of humans living at the time.The tool, which was found in a cave in Poland in 1985, is now thought to be 40,000 years old.Archaeologists say it was fashioned from a mammoth's tusk with an astonishing level of skill.Researchers worked out from its shape that it would have flown when thrown, but would not have come back to the thrower.It was probably used in hunting, though it might have had cultural or artistic value, perhaps being used in some kind of ritual.The mammoth ivory boomerang was unearthed in Oblazowa Cave in southern Poland.It was originally thought to be about 30,000 years old. But new, more reliable radiocarbon dating of human and animal bones found at the site...

Millions of children at risk as vaccine uptake stalls
LONDON — Progress in vaccinating children against a variety of life-threatening diseases has stalled in the past two decades — and even gone backwards in some countries — a new global study suggests.The situation has been made worse by the Covid pandemic, leaving millions of children unprotected from diseases such as measles, tuberculosis and polio.The researchers are calling for a concerted effort to provide better and more equal access to vaccines.Child health experts warn that cuts to international aid budgets that fund vaccination programs, combined with vaccine scepticism, are creating a "perfect storm".The global childhood vaccination program has been a huge success.Since 1974, more than four billion children have been vaccinated, preventing an estimated 150 million...
