More time in the sun may help lower dementia risk, according to a large new study. The reason may have to do with daytime light’s effects on circadian rhythms, the body’s internal 24-hour clock that helps regulate sleep, wakefulness, hormones, and other brain and body functions.[1]“Outdoor light is very bright and can help strengthen circadian rhythms, which we think is a good thing,” says Erik S. Musiek, MD, PhD, a researcher, professor of neurology, and a codirector of the Center on Biological Rhythms and Sleep at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis. Dr. Musiek was not involved in the…
The theory of panspermia proposes that life, or the ingredients needed for it, can spread throughout the cosmos aboard asteroids, comets, and other rocky objects. When life develops on a planet, powerful impacts can blast material from its surface into space, potentially carrying microscopic organisms or organic compounds to other worlds. Scientists have long debated whether this kind of transfer may have occurred between Earth and Mars (in both directions). More recently, renewed interest in the possibility of microbial life within Venus’ thick cloud layers has expanded that discussion to include Earth, Venus, and Mars. A recent study presented at…
