The length of your online reviews may help scammers map your friends and target them
On the surface, posting online reviews looks like a win-win activity. It helps both businesses we like and people who might frequent them.

It can inadvertently expose our personal connections and make us and our online friends more vulnerable to cyberattacks.
Know your pest pressure: Monitoring is the foundation for managing lucerne seed wasp
Lucerne seed wasp (LSW) is a serious pest in alfalfa crops, causing damage that is difficult to see in the field. Its larvae feed inside developing seeds, meaning losses may not become apparent until harvest, cleaning or seed delivery, when it is too late to intervene. Each wasp represents a lost seed, with infested seeds removed by seed-cleaning facilities along with other impurities.

NASA launches Roman Space Telescope to hunt exoplanets and probe dark energy
In 1972, three astronauts conducted a remarkable ground simulation, residing in a sealed chamber for a staggering 56 days. This experiment was pivotal in preparing for the upcoming Skylab space station mission. Unexpectedly, engineers uncovered hardware failures and health challenges, as astronauts unexpectedly lost weight due to erroneous dietary calculations.
After returning from spacewalks, astronauts frequently describe an odd aroma, reminiscent of burnt gunpowder or charred meat. This mysterious scent, which has baffled researchers for many years, is currently the subject of investigation. One hypothesis points to the interaction of oxygen atoms with spacesuits in orbit, while another suggests the involvement of soot-like particles from dying stars. This enigma underscores our limited understanding of essential elements of space exploration.

Airborne tuberculosis bacteria may mutate as they dry, revealing a target to curb drug resistance
Tuberculosis bacteria released into the air from infected individuals dry out to form infectious particles that are second only to measles in contagiousness. Weill Cornell Medicine investigators have discovered specific mechanisms that enable the bacteria not only to survive drying but also to generate mutations linked to antibiotic resistance. This suggests that transmission involves more than the passive movement of bacteria between people and may be a period during which the pathogen evolves.
