Exactly How Much Housework Does A Husband Create? : Having a husband creates an extra seven hours a week of housework for women, according to a University of Michigan study of a nationally representative sample of U.S. families. For men, the picture is very different: A wife saves men from about an hour of housework a week. The figure included in the article states something quite different, see what Larry says about it . Fossil From Last Common Ancestor Of Neanderthals And Humans Found In Europe, 1.2 Million Years Old : University of Michigan researcher Josep M. Pares is part of a team that has discovered the oldest known remains of Human ancestors in Western Europe. Habitat Destruction May Wipe Out Monarch Butterfly Migration : Intense deforestation in Mexico could ruin one of North America's most celebrated natural wonders -- the mysterious 3,000-mile migration of the monarch butterfly. According to a University of Kansas researcher, the astonishing migration may collapse rapidly without urgent action to end devastation of the butterfly's vital sources of food and shelter. Is DNA Repair A Substitute For Sex? : Birds and bees may do it, but the microscopic animals called bdelloid rotifers seem to get along just fine without sex, thank you. What's more, they have done so over millions of years of evolution, resulting in at least 370 species. These hardy creatures somehow escape the usual drawback of as ...

"..."The new find bolsters the view that Homo reached Europe not long after leaving Africa almost 2 million years ago. "It seems probable that the first European population came from the region of the Near East, the true crossroads between Africa and Eurasia, and that it was related to the first demographic expansion out of Africa," said Pares, who is a research scientist in the U-M Department of Geological Sciences and program director of the newly created National Research Center on Human Evolution (CENIEH) in Burgos, Spain, with which most of the authors are affiliated. The researchers tentatively classified the new Fossil as an earlier example Homo antecessor (Pioneer Man), the species represented by the previous oldest fossils and thought to be the last common Ancestor of Neanderthals and modern humans.

Okay, I promised beam_oflight a post on "something anthropological" a while ago, and I really do have a mostly-written essay/post on the current controversy over Homo floresiensis, but... this is so much more cool, and a lot less confusingly controversial, so! Scientists have found new fossils putting Human ancestors in Western Europe more than a million years ago . This is HUGE news, if the fossils aren't discredited, because up until now the earliest Human-Ancestor fossils in Western Europe dated to 800,000 years ago - big difference from over a million! The reason I say that this will be huge if the fossils aren't discredited is that dating techniques can get pretty fuzzy at times, and if there's any doubt about the provenance of the fossils we could be in for a rocky ride of people claiming that they got moved there from somewhere else. Biological anthropology is big on controversy like that. ;) So far, though, everything looks good - they were found in an area where later fossils are known, and the current ones were found in conjunction with stone flakes from the knapping of tools, and bones that show signs of having the meat cut from them by those tools. So they're not turning up "in a vacuum" so to speak, which is a very good sign! Point of interest - the Fossil is so far being considered to belong to Homo antecessor ( Wiki article here ), known to have been in the same area from later fossils. This f ...

Welcome! "Alien Life" tracks the latest discoveries and thoughts in the various elements of the famous Drake Equation . You may notice that this and future entries are shorter than usual; career, family and book deal commitments have forced me to cut back some of my projects. Now, here's today's news: g Abodes - Earlier this month, NASA's Cassini spacecraft made a daring flight through the icy water jets of Enceladus. The data gathered might tell us if the moon harbors a water ocean or organics beneath its surface. See article . g Life - Researchers have detected a molecule closely related to an amino acid at the center of our Milky Way Galaxy. The finding provides more evidence that precursor molecules important for the origin of life can be found in interstellar space. See article . g Intelligence - A small piece of jawbone unearthed in a cave in Spain is the oldest known Fossil of a Human Ancestor in Europe and suggests that people lived on the continent much earlier than previously believed, scientists say. See article . g Cosmicus - An animal common to marine environments on Earth has shown extreme resistance to radiation. Radiation is one of the greatest dangers for life traveling in space, and the finding could yield clues about how life might survive beyond Earth. See article . ...
