Paleontologists also unveiled a terrifying 43-foot mosasaur dubbed Tylosaurus rex and a new giant crocodile species that once stalked our earliest human ancestors. The James Webb Space Telescope delivered stunning new images of an alien world where clouds are made of rock-forming minerals that appear each morning and vaporize by evening. Researchers are now seriously proposing that mysterious cold signals detected around distant stars could be signatures of energy-harvesting megastructures built by advanced civilizations. And a new AI-powered blood test claims it can predict your risk of stroke and heart failure up to 15 years before they happen — while a separate study reveals the surprising metabolic secret found in the blood of people who live past 100.
