Podcast: Who made these stone tools?


A type of ancient stone blade was made by the first Homo sapiens that moved into northern Europe some 45,000 years ago — not by Neanderthals. Researchers sifted through thousands of pieces of rubble at one of the few sites that had been left untouched by early 20th-century archaeologists. “It's an ancient cave that collapsed, there is a layer with blocks that are about the size of a car,” paleoanthropologist and study co-author Jean-Jacques Hublin tells the Nature Podcast. DNA analysis of 13 bone fragments confirmed that they belonged to modern humans that probably started living at the periphery of the Neanderthals’ domain.

Quote of the day​

“I’ve found that doing science is the ultimate act of rebellion, and a way to confront the injustices that women face every day.”
Being a Latin American woman in science is partly about shattering stereotypes and glass ceilings, says palaeontologist Dirley Cortés. (Nature | 6 min read)

Hubble Space Telescope spots a cosmic 'tug of war'
(NASA, ESA, and R. Foley (University of California – Santa Cruz); Processing: Gladys Kober (NASA/Catholic University of America))
NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has zoomed in on one side of a cosmic tug-of-war that will rage between two galaxies for tens of millions of years. Frustratingly, this is one competition in which a clear winner may never emerge, as the two galaxies could well be drawn together to merge into one at the end of this gravitational contest.

SpaceX wants to launch its giant Starship vehicle often over the coming months, as a new photo makes abundantly clear. SpaceX's "megabay" at its Starbase site in South Texas, the center of Starship manufacturing and launch activities, is jam-packed with towering stainless-steel cylinders - Super Heavy vehicles, the first stage of SpaceX's Starship megarocket - which rise nearly to the roof.

Watch the sun spit out colossal plasma plume (video)
Watch the sun spit out colossal plasma plume (video)
(NASA/SDO and the AIA, EVE, and HMI science teams)
A powerful solar flare erupted from a giant unstable sunspot last night, triggering radio blackouts on Earth and firing a hot plasma plume through the sun's atmosphere at speeds of 900,000 mph (400 km/s). The long-duration solar flare from the sunspot region AR3575 began on Monday (Feb 5) at 8:30 p.m. EST (0130 GMT on Feb 6) and peaked at 10:15 EST (0315 GMT on Feb 6), according to solar physicist Keith Strong who posted details about the eruption on X.
