gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2025-12-06 08:00:05

Ankylosaurs were squat and thick four-legged dinosaurs with club tails and tough body armor. In other words, invincible Pokémon. A new fossil discovery, however, has revealed that the earliest ankylosaurs were several orders of magnitude more badass than their descendants. In a study published today in the journal Nature, researchers describe the partial skeleton of a Spicomellus, a genus of early ankylosaurs, unearthed in Morocco and dating to around 165 million years ago.

The first stars may not have been as uniformly massive as we thought

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-12-06 12:16:33

For decades, astronomers have wondered what the very first stars in the universe were like. These stars formed new chemical elements, which enriched the universe and allowed the next generations of stars to form the first planets. The first stars were initially composed of pure hydrogen and helium, and they were massive—hundreds to thousands of times the mass of the Sun and millions of times more luminous. Their short lives ended in enormous explosions called supernovae, so they had neither the
