CLIMATE CHANGE IS BURYING ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITES UNDER TONS OF SAND

Earth is looking more and more like Arrakis every day due to desertification. That is unfortunate because while a lot of us are obsessed with AI, robots, and cryptocurrency, archaeologists are still trying to dig into our past to see what we can learn from earth's fascinating history. As their sites get buried under sand, it's becoming harder and harder to do their job, burying fascinating secrets and hidden truths that we may never learn. Wired

A new study has bolstered the potential of silica particles made from this material by showing how they block enzyme activity to hamper the body's uptake of fats and sugars while also hinting at the ideal design for the optimal anti-obesity effects."

NASA ANNOUNCES ITS UNIDENTIFIED AERIAL PHENOMENA RESEARCH TEAM TO EXAMINE MYSTERIOUS SIGHTINGS

At this point, it already feels like an old joke, but during the first couple years of the pandemic, the U.S. government basically came out and said that they have seen a lot of mysterious UFOs (now known as UAPs) and they don't know what they could be. They all but said aliens exist and because the world was (and in many ways, still is) on fire, people really underreacted. Well, now NASA has announced a team that will actually dig into these sightings and get us some answers. Get excited. Inverse

BEYOND MEAT IS ROLLING OUT ITS STEAK SUBSTITUTE IN GROCERY STORES

People who love steak really, really love steak. Who can blame them? For the meat eaters out there, very few taste sensations compare to the bite of a perfectly seared ribeye, not too cooked but not too raw, seasoned only with salt, and pepper, seared in butter on a cast iron. Well, after a tumultuous month, Beyond Meat is going to put itself in controversy's way again by releasing a steak substitute into major grocery chains this week, using faba bean protein as its base.
