Ancient Mystery Face Found in Kazakhstan!

Archaeologists in Kazakhstan have discovered a 3,000-year-old human face carving from the Bronze Age. The mysterious stone sculpture, featuring distinct facial features, was found at a burial site, suggesting it may have had a ritual or spiritual purpose. Experts believe it could represent an ancestor, deity, or warrior from an ancient culture. This rare find adds to the growing evidence of advanced societies that thrived in Central Asia long before recorded history.

Bronze Age Axe Mystery Solved

The National Museum of Ireland solved the mystery of two 4,000-year-old Bronze Age axe heads sent anonymously in a porridge box. Farmer Thomas Dunne discovered them with a metal detector. Researchers visited his land to log the site, and the axes will contribute to an international study. The museum reminded the public about the law regarding metal detecting, but Mr. Dunne won't face charges.

Mars Mission Medications May Expire Before Return

A new study highlights a potential issue for the first astronauts heading to Mars: medications brought on the mission may expire before they return to Earth. Unlike the International Space Station, where supplies can be replenished, a Mars mission faces the challenge of long shelf-lives for drugs. Researchers assessed how long medications would last and while some medications have shorter shelf lives, most expire within 36 months, potentially reducing their effectiveness. Solutions are needed to extend medication expiration dates or accept the risk of using expired drugs.
