Voyager 2 captured this image of the planet Uranus during its flyby in 1986
New Uranus research suggests what’s known about the planet could be wrong
PASADENA — When the Voyager 2 spacecraft became the first and only mission to fly by Uranus in 1986, it defined the way astronomers understand the ice giant. But the data collected by the probe also introduced new mysteries that have continued to puzzle scientists in the decades since the historic flyby.Now, a new look at the data has revealed that Voyager 2 happened to zoom by the distant planet during a rare event, which suggests that scientists’ current understanding of the planet may have been shaped — and skewed — by an unusual stellar coincidence.The findings of the study, published Monday in the journal Nature Astronomy, may have solved some of the riddles created by Voyager 2’s odd Uranus readings.“The spacecraft saw Uranus in conditions that only occur about 4% of the...

A great Indian bustard chick was recently conceived through artificial insemination in India's Rajasthan
Indian experts hail breakthrough in bid to save huge native bird
MUMBAI — Last month brought good news for the great Indian bustard, a critically endangered bird found mainly in India.Wildlife officials in the western state of Rajasthan have performed the first successful hatching of a chick through artificial insemination.A lone adult male in one of two breeding centers in Jaisalmer city was trained to produce sperm without mating, which was then used to impregnate an adult female at the second center some 200km (124 miles) away.Officials said the development was important as it has opened up the possibility of creating a sperm bank.Over the years, habitat loss, poaching and collisions with overhead power lines have effected great Indian bustards. Their numbers have fallen from more than 1,000 in the 1960s to around 150 at present.Most of them are...

Night sweats and sleep disruption are common menopause symptoms
HRT does not impact life expectancy — UK health body
LONDON — Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) does not shorten or lengthen the life expectancy of those taking it to ease menopause symptoms, says UK's health assessment body NICE in updated guidance.Its conclusion comes after a detailed analysis of data on links between HRT and conditions such as heart disease, stroke, some cancers and dementia.The guidance includes a new discussion aid to help GPs give patients the most useful information they can about the drugs and what they do.And it says talking therapy could be offered alongside HRT, to help women cope with symptoms.HRT replaces the hormones estrogen or progestogen, or both, when women's periods stop — normally between the ages of 45 and 55.It is administered using gels, creams, pessaries, tablets or sprays.In updated...

MANILA — Jennylyn M Barrios’ job as a make-up artist takes her all over Manila – precious time away from Uno, her 10-month-old son.There simply isn’t enough time in the day to make the homemade meals her growing baby needs.

I feed it three times a day – for breakfast, lunch, and then for dinner. It’s easy to feed, available, affordable – all great for working mums.”Jennylyn is one of many mums increasingly turning to commercially available baby food products in recent years: sales of...
