DON'T MISS

Finding Joy in the Little Things
I often think about how we miss the small joys in life — and how crucial they are, especially in sports. We want everything at once and in abundance.

A new study finds that tools and other artifacts uncovered by archaeologists in Alaska shed light on how people first reached North America.
The excavated evidence of prehistoric migration is approximately 600 years older than similar artifacts from the Clovis culture, whose members settled further south, including in what is now New Mexico.
Those similarities led researchers to conclude that the people who left the Alaska artifacts were ancestors of the Clovis culture. That suggests the Clovis…

An international team of researchers has painstakingly reconstructed part of the oldest map of the night sky — a map that had been considered lost. X-ray scanning made the recovery possible.
The rediscovered map was created by the famous ancient Greek astronomer Hipparchus. He lived around 190–120 BCE, long before the invention of the telescope, the Daily Mail reported.
How this discovery began
In 2022, researchers analyzed the medieval monastery manuscript, the Codex Climaci Rescriptus, which …
