Today we're lighting up and dabbing a heavy-hitting strain that's as wild as its name — Purple Platinum Garlic. This potent hybrid is a cross between GMO (Garlic Cookies) and Platinum OG, and it packs some serious flavor and effects.We're not just sparking flower either — we're dabbing the concentrate using the Sykloud by Bomb Erigs, one of our favorite portable rigs. If you want to try it yourself, hit up Bomb's site and use the code cannabisschool at checkout for 10% off. It's smooth, tasty, and makes concentrates way more fun to sesh with.Now back to the strain. Purple Platinum Garlic isn't your everyday smoke — THC levels on this one hit between 30–35%, so it's definitely one of those “clear your schedule” strains. There's barely any CBD (about 0.01–1%), so all the effects are dialed in from the THC and terpene combo.And speaking of terpenes, here's what's in the mix — and what they do for you:Caryophyllene – spicy, peppery, and known to help reduce inflammation and stress. It's the only terpene that actually interacts with your endocannabinoid system like cannabinoids do.Limonene – bright, citrusy, and often associated with boosting mood and easing anxiety. It gives you that “sunshine in your brain” kind of feeling.Humulene – earthy and woody, and may help curb your appetite (yep, a rare anti-munchie terp).Myrcene – herbal and musky. This one's the most common cannabis terp and usually behind that heavy, sedative body high that makes you feel like melted butter.Flavor-wise, Purple Platinum Garlic lives up to the name. It kicks off with a big garlic-and-herb inhale, then smooths out into sweet, creamy notes on the exhale. There's even a little sage-y earth vibe in the background. It's weird. It's tasty. And if you're a fan of the funky stuff, it's a must-try.The high starts up top — a fast cerebral rush that'll have you feeling floaty and giggly. Then the body high rolls in slowly and fully. You're not locked to the couch at first, but don't be surprised if you end up there with snacks and a dumb grin on your face. Perfect for unwinding at night, de-stressing, or sinking into some creative work if you catch the head high early enough.Looks-wise, this strain is a stunner. Dense, chunky buds that are forest green with deep purple tones, loud orange hairs, and a thick, frosty layer of trichomes. Definitely a “pull this out to impress your friends” kind of flower.If you're growing it, Purple Platinum Garlic flowers in about 8–9 weeks. Indoor growers can expect about 400g/m², while outdoors you can pull around 500g per plant with a harvest window in early October. It grows solid and sturdy, like it knows it's a powerhouse.Medically, it's great for stress, anxiety, depression, chronic pain, and appetite loss — but again, go easy if you're sensitive to high-THC strains. This one doesn't sneak up on you… it kicks the door down.Whether you're here for the garlic funk, the relaxing body high, or just trying something new on the dab rig, Purple Platinum Garlic brings the full experience. And the Sykloud by Bomb Erigs made the sesh even smoother.Light it. Dab it. Let it take you for a ride.

Hello Interactors,This week, I've been reflecting on the themes of my last few essays — along with a pile of research that's been oddly in sync. Transit planning. Neuroscience. Happiness studies. Complexity theory. Strange mix, but it keeps pointing to the same thing: cities aren't just struggling with transportation or housing. They're struggling with connection. With meaning. With the simple question: what kind of happiness should a city make possible? And why don't we ask that more often?STRANGERS SHUNNED, SYSTEMS SIMULATEDThe urban century was supposed to bring us together. Denser cities, faster mobility, more connected lives — these were the promises of global urbanization. Yet in the shadow of those promises, a different kind of city has emerged in America with growing undertones elsewhere: one that increasingly seeks to eliminate the stranger, bypass friction, and privatize interaction.Whether through algorithmically optimized ride-sharing, private tunnels built to evade street life, or digital maps simulating place without presence for autonomous vehicles, a growing set of design logics work to render other people — especially unknown others — invisible, irrelevant, or avoidable.I admit, I too can get seduced by this comfort, technology, and efficiency. But cities aren't just systems of movement — they're systems of meaning. Space is never neutral; it's shaped by power and shapes behavior in return. This isn't new. Ancient cities like Teotihuacan (tay-oh-tee-wah-KAHN) in central Mexico, once one of the largest cities in the world, aligned their streets and pyramids with the stars. Chang'an (chahng-AHN), the capital of Tang Dynasty China, used strict cardinal grids and walled compounds to reflect Confucian ideals of order and hierarchy. And Uruk (OO-rook), in ancient Mesopotamia, organized civic life around temple complexes that stood at the spiritual and administrative heart of the city.These weren't just settlements — they were spatial arguments about how people should live together, and who should lead. Even Middle Eastern souks and hammams were more than markets or baths; they were civic infrastructure. Whether through temples or bus stops, the question is the same: What kind of social behavior is this space asking of us?Neuroscience points to answers. As Shane O'Mara argues, walking is not just transport — it's neurocognitive infrastructure. The hippocampus, which governs memory, orientation, and mood, activates when we move through physical space. Walking among others, perceiving spontaneous interactions, and attending to environmental cues strengthens our cognitive maps and emotional regulation.This makes city oriented around ‘stranger danger' not just unjust — but indeed dangerous. Because to eliminate friction is to undermine emergence — not only in the social sense, but in the economic and cultural ones too. Cities thrive on weak ties, on happenstance, on proximity without intention. Mark Granovetter's landmark paper, The Strength of Weak Ties, showed that it's those looser, peripheral relationships — not our inner circles — that drive opportunity, creativity, and mobility. Karl Polanyi called it embeddedness: the idea that markets don't float in space, they're grounded in the social fabric around them.You see it too in scale theory — in the work of Geoffrey West and Luís Bettencourt — where the productive and innovative energy of cities scales with density, interaction, and diversity. When you flatten all that into private tunnels and algorithmic efficiency, you don't just lose the texture — you lose the conditions for invention.As David Roberts, a climate and policy journalist known for his systems thinking and sharp urban critiques, puts it: this is “the anti-social dream of elite urbanism” — a vision where you never have to share space with anyone not like you. In conversation with him, Jarrett Walker, a transit planner and theorist who's spent decades helping cities design equitable bus networks, also pushes back against this logic. He warns that when cities build transit around avoidance — individualized rides, privatized tunnels, algorithmic sorting — they aren't just solving inefficiencies. They're hollowing out the very thing that makes transit (and cities) valuable and also public: the shared experience of strangers moving together.The question isn't just whether cities are efficient — but what kind of social beings they help us become. If we build cities to avoid each other, we shouldn't be surprised when they crumble as we all forget how to live together.COVERAGE, CARE, AND CIVIC CALMIf you follow urban and transit planning debates long enough, you'll hear the same argument come up again and again: Should we focus on ridership or coverage? High-frequency routes where lots of people travel, or wide access for people who live farther out — even if fewer use the service? For transit nerds, it's a policy question. For everyone else, it's about dignity.As Walker puts it, coverage isn't about efficiency — it's about “a sense of fairness.” It's about living in a place where your city hasn't written you off because you're not profitable to serve. Walker's point is that coverage isn't charity. It's a public good, one that tells people: You belong here.That same logic shows up in more surprising places — like the World Happiness Report. Year after year, Finland lands at the top. But as writer Molly Young found during her visit to Helsinki, Finnish “happiness” isn't about joy or euphoria. It's about something steadier: trust, safety, and institutional calm. What the report measures is evaluative happiness — how satisfied people are with their lives over time — not affective happiness, which is more about momentary joy or emotional highs.There's a Finnish word that captures this. It the feeling you get after a sauna: saunanjälkeinen raukeus (SOW-nahn-yell-kay-nen ROW-keh-oos) — the softened, slowed state of the body and mind. That's what cities like Helsinki seem to deliver: not bliss, but a stable, low-friction kind of contentment. And while that may lack sparkle, it makes people feel held.And infrastructure plays a big role. In Helsinki, the signs in the library don't say “Be Quiet.” They say, “Please let others work in peace.” It's a small thing, but it speaks volumes — less about control, more about shared responsibility. There are saunas in government buildings. Parents leave their babies sleeping in strollers outside cafés. Transit is clean, quiet, and frequent. As Young puts it, these aren't luxuries — they're part of a “bone-deep sense of trust” the city builds and reinforces. Not enforced from above, but sustained by expectation, habit, and care.My family once joined an organized walking tour of Copenhagen. The guide, who was from Spain, pointed to a clock in a town square and said, almost in passing, “The government has always made sure this clock runs on time — even during war.” It wasn't just about punctuality. It was about trust. About the quiet promise that the public realm would still hold, even when everything else felt uncertain. This, our guide noted from his Spanish perspective, is what what make Scandinavians so-called ‘happy'. They feel held.Studies show that most of what boosts long-term happiness isn't about dopamine hits — it's about relational trust. Feeling safe. Feeling seen. Knowing you won't be stranded if you don't have a car or a credit card. Knowing the city works, even if you don't make it work for you.In this way, transit frequency and subtle signs in Helsinki are doing the same thing. They're shaping behavior and reinforcing social norms. They're saying: we share space here. Don't be loud. Don't cut in line. Don't treat public space like it's only for you.That kind of city can't be built on metrics alone. It needs moral imagination — the kind that sees coverage, access, and slowness as features, not bugs. That's not some socialist's idea of utopia. It's just thoughtful. Built into the culture, yes, but also the design.But sometimes we're just stuck with whatever design is already in place. Even if it's not so thoughtful. Economists and social theorists have long used the concept of path dependence to explain why some systems — cities, institutions, even technologies — get stuck. The idea dates back to work in economics and political science in the 1980s, where it was used to show how early decisions, even small ones, can lock in patterns that are hard to reverse.Once you've laid train tracks, built freeways, zoned for single-family homes — you've shaped what comes next. Changing course isn't impossible, but it's costly, slow, and politically messy. The QWERTY keyboard is a textbook example: not the most efficient layout, but one that stuck because switching systems later would be harder than just adapting to what we've got.Urban scholars Michael Storper and Allen Scott brought this thinking into city studies. They've shown how economic geography and institutional inertia shape urban outcomes — how past planning decisions, labor markets, and infrastructure investments limit the options cities have today. If your city bet on car-centric growth decades ago, you're probably still paying for that decision, even if pivoting is palatable to the public.CONNECTIONS, COMPLEXITY, CITIES THAT CAREThere's a quote often attributed to Stephen Hawking that's made the rounds in complexity science circles: “The 21st century will be the century of complexity.” No one's entirely sure where he said it — it shows up in systems theory blogs, talks, and books — but it sticks. Probably because it feels true.If the last century was about physics — closed systems, force, motion, precision — then this one is about what happens when the pieces won't stay still. When the rules change mid-game. When causes ripple back as consequences. In other words: cities.Planners have tried to tame that complexity in all kinds of ways. Grids. Zoning codes. Dashboards. There's long been a kind of “physics envy” in both planning and economics — a belief that if we just had the right model, the right inputs, we could predict and control the city like a closed system. As a result, for much of the 20th century, cities were designed like machines — optimized for flow, separation, and predictability.But even the pushback followed a logic of control — cul-de-sacs and suburban pastoralism — wasn't a turn toward organic life or spontaneity. It was just a softer kind of order: winding roads and whispered rules meant to keep things calm, clean, and contained…and mostly white and moderately wealthy.If you think of cities like machines, it makes sense to want control. More data, tighter optimization, fewer surprises. That's how you'd tune an engine or write software. But cities aren't machines. They're messy, layered, and full of people doing unpredictable things. They're more like ecosystems — or weather patterns — than they are a carburetor. And that's where complexity science becomes useful.People like Paul Cilliers and Brian Castellani have argued for a more critical kind of complexity science — one that sees cities not just as networks or algorithms, but as places shaped by values, power, and conflict. Cilliers emphasized that complex systems, like cities, are open and dynamic: they don't have fixed boundaries, they adapt constantly, and they respond to feedback in ways no planner can fully predict. Castellani extends this by insisting that complexity isn't just technical — it's ethical. It demands we ask: Who benefits from a system's design? Who has room to adapt, and who gets constrained? In this view, small interventions — a zoning tweak, a route change — can set off ripple effects that reshape how people move, connect, and belong. A new path dependence.This is why certainty is dangerous in urban design. It breeds overconfidence. Humility is a better place to start. As Jarrett Walker puts it, “there are all kinds of ways to fake your way through this.” Agencies often adopt feel-good mission statements like “compete with the automobile by providing access for all” — which, he notes, is like “telling your taxi driver to turn left and right at the same time.” You can't do both. Not on a fixed budget.Walker pushes agencies to be honest: if you want to prioritize ridership, say so. If you want to prioritize broad geographic coverage, that's also valid — but know it will mean lower ridership. The key is not pretending you can have both at full strength. He says, “What I want is for board members… to make this decision consciously and not be surprised by the consequences”.These decisions matter. A budget cut can push riders off buses, which then leads to reduced service, which leads to more riders leaving — a feedback loop. On the flip side, small improvements — like better lighting, a public bench, a frequent bus — can set off positive loops too. Change emerges, often sideways.That means thinking about transit not just as a system of movement, but as a relational space. Same with libraries, parks, and sidewalks. These aren't neutral containers. They're environments that either support or suppress human connection. If you design a city to eliminate friction, you eliminate chance encounters — the stuff social trust is made of.I'm an introvert. I like quiet. I recharge alone. But I also live in a city — and I've learned that even for people like me, being around others still matters. Not in the chatty, get-to-know-your-neighbors way. But in the background hum of life around you. Sitting on a bus. Browsing in a bookstore. Walking down a street full of strangers, knowing you don't have to engage — but you're not invisible either.There's a name for this. Psychologists call it public solitude or sometimes energized privacy — the comfort of being alone among others. Not isolated, not exposed. Just held, lightly, in the weave of the crowd. And the research backs it up: introverts often seek out public spaces like cafés, libraries, or parks not to interact, but to feel present — connected without pressure.In the longest-running happiness study ever done, 80 years, Harvard psychologist Robert Waldinger found that strong relationships — not income, not status — were the best predictor of long-term well-being. More recently, studies have shown that even brief interactions with strangers — on a bus, in a coffee shop — can lift mood and reduce loneliness. But here's the catch: cities have to make those interactions possible.Or they don't.And that's the real test of infrastructure. We've spent decades designing systems to move people through. Fast. Clean. Efficient. But we've neglected the quiet spaces that let people just be. Sidewalks you're not rushed off of. Streets where kids can safely bike or play…or simply cross the street.Even pools — maybe especially pools. My wife runs a nonprofit called SplashForward that's working to build more public pools. Not just for fitness, but because pools are public space. You float next to people you may never talk to. And still, you're sharing something. Space. Water. Time.You see this clearly in places like Finland and Iceland, where pools and saunas are built into the rhythms of public life. They're not luxuries — they're civic necessities. People show up quietly, day after day, not to socialize loudly, but to be alone together. As one Finnish local told journalist Molly Young, “During this time, we don't have... colors.” It was about the long gray winter, sure — but also something deeper: a culture that values calm over spectacle. Stability over spark. A kind of contentment that doesn't perform.But cities don't have to choose between quiet and joy. We don't have to model every system on Helsinki in February. There's something beautiful in the American kind of happiness too — the loud, weird, spontaneous moments that erupt in public. The band on the subway. The dance party in the park. The loud kid at the pool. That kind of energy can be a nuisance, but it can also be joyful.Even Jarrett Walker, who's clear-eyed about transit, doesn't pretend it solves everything. Transit isn't always the answer. Sometimes a car is the right tool. What matters is whether everyone has a real choice — not just those with money or proximity or privilege. And he's quick to admit every city with effective transit has its local grievances.So no, I'm not arguing for perfection, or even socialism. I'm arguing for a city that knows how to hold difference. Fast and slow. Dense and quiet. A city that lets you step into the crowd, or sit at its edge, and still feel like you belong. A place to comfortably sit with the uncertainty of this great transformation emerging around us. Alone and together.REFERENCESCastellani, B. (2014).

BUFFALO, NY - April 28, 2025 – A new #research paper was #published in Oncotarget, Volume 16, on April 24, 2025, titled “PD-L1 and FOXP3 expression in high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions of the anogenital region." Researchers Humberto Carvalho Carneiro, Rodrigo de Andrade Natal, José Vassallo and Fernando Augusto Soares from the Instituto D'Or de Pesquisa e Ensino and Rede D'Or studied early tissue changes caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) in the anal, vulvar, and penile regions. They found that high-grade pre-cancer lesions triggered stronger immune responses and showed higher levels of two immune-related markers, PD-L1 and FOXP3. These findings are important because they help explain how some HPV-related lesions progress to cancer while others heal on their own. High-risk HPV is known to cause several types of anogenital cancers. Before these cancers appear, the virus often leads to abnormal tissue changes known as high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions. Many of these lesions disappear without treatment, but some become cancer—especially in people with weakened immune systems. This study explored how immune activity may play a role in this progression. The researchers examined tissue from 157 patients—95 males and 55 females—with either high-grade or low-grade HPV-related lesions. They found that T-regulatory cells, marked by the FOXP3 protein, were more common in high-grade lesions. These immune cells are known to suppress immune responses, which can allow infected or abnormal cells to grow. The team also found higher expression of PD-L1, a protein that helps cells evade immune detection, particularly in inflammatory immune cells. "Dense inflammatory infiltrates and high counts of FOXP3+ cells were significantly more frequent in patients with HSILs than in those with LSILsHR (p = 0.04 and 0.02, respectively). HSILs also exhibited higher PD-L1 expression (padj < 0.01 and < 0.01 for the SP142 and 22C3 clones, respectively), based on the Poisson generalized linear model.” These findings suggest that HPV may begin avoiding the immune system early in infection, even before cancer develops. The combination of high FOXP3 and PD-L1 levels may create a protective environment for infected cells, making them harder for the body to eliminate. This immune evasion may allow the lesions to remain and, over time, become cancerous. The study also compared patients with and without HIV to assess whether immune health influenced the results. While those with compromised immune systems had more extensive lesions, PD-L1 and FOXP3 expression was also found in patients with healthy immune systems. This evidence shows that immune evasion by HPV can happen regardless of a person's immune status. Understanding how PD-L1 and FOXP3 function in early HPV-related lesions may help clinicians predict which lesions are more likely to become cancer. These insights could lead to new strategies for monitoring, treating, or preventing HPV-related precancerous lesions and cancer in the anogenital region. The study highlights how early immune system changes can play a key role in the development of HPV-related cancers.

The most massive stars are seldom alone. Most of them have one or more companions – stars that are bound to each other by their mutual gravitational pull. Such stars were born together, from the same giant cloud of dust and gas. Dense clumps in the cloud collapsed and split apart, giving birth to heavy stars. One possible example is Antares, the bright star that represents the heart of Scorpius. It stands close to the left of the Moon at dawn tomorrow. The star we see as Antares is a supergiant. It’s more than a dozen times as massive as the Sun, and hundreds of times wider. If it took the Sun’s place in our own solar system, it would swallow the four innermost planets, including Earth. Another big star accompanies the supergiant. It’s about seven times the Sun’s mass, and five times its diameter. But it’s unclear whether the two stars actually form a binary. They move through space in the same direction and at the same speed. But they’re separated by more than 500 times the distance from Earth to the Sun – an especially wide gap. At that range, it would take up to a couple of thousand years for the stars to orbit each other. But we’ve only known about the smaller star for a few hundred years. That’s not long enough to trace any possible orbital motion. So while the two stars probably form a binary, the case isn’t quite conclusive. We’ll talk about some stars that are definite binaries tomorrow. Script by Damond Benningfield

#wwe #aew #wrestlingE:169 T:7Aquí hablamos “Desenmascarando a los ‘Fans de Closet' de la Lucha Libre: ¡Hablen Claro o Quédense Callados!” y más…

When I saw ske with Susan to see what we might talk about, I was taken by her passion to share her life's pursuits: WIne and music. After speaking for just a few minutes, the connection between the two was clear. Then I remembered an study done by the Bose corporation...she was inspired to hear more...as was I. In this episode of Wine Talks with Paul K, Susan Lin, a Master of Wine and Master of Fine Arts, shares her unique journey and insights into the intersection of wine and music. She reveals how her early exposure to wine by her grandfather ignited her passion for learning about it. The episode delves into her intriguing research on how music can affect the sensory perception of wine. Susan explains that different genres and tempos of music can alter the perceived taste and quality of the same wine. Her experiments showed that wine paired with classical music was rated higher in attributes like freshness and effervescence compared to when tasted in silence. Furthermore, the episode touches upon her academic achievements and the challenges faced while writing her thesis during the lockdown. I discuss with Susan the broader implications of this research for wine marketing and consumer experience, emphasizing the emotional and cultural aspects of enjoying wine. Dense interactions also touch on the global wine market, sustainability, and the industry's perceived pace of innovation, with Susan offering positive insights into the evolving world of wine.  

Jeff Pettey, MD, MBA, joins the podcast to review a case of a 75-year-old woman who presented with blurred vision.

NRHA leader emphasizes the role of Young Terrace and Calvert Square residents in shaping the transformation plan.

James Atterholt, USGS Observations of broad-scale lithospheric structure and large earthquakes are often made with sparse measurements and are low resolution. This makes interpretations of the processes that shape the lithosphere fuzzy and nonunique. Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) is an emergent technique that transforms fiber-optic cables into ultra-dense arrays of strainmeters, yielding meter-scale resolution over tens of kilometers for long recording periods. Recently, new techniques have made probing fiber-measured earthquake wavefields for signatures of large-scale deformation and dynamic behavior possible. With fibers in the Eastern California Shear Zone and near the Mendocino Triple Junction, I use DAS arrays to measure a diversity of tectonic-scale phenomena. These include the length scale over which the Garlock Fault penetrates the mantle, the plumbing system of the Coso Volcanic Field at the crust-mantle boundary, the topographic roughness of the Cascadia Megathrust, and the time-dependent rupture velocity of the 2024 M7 Cape Mendocino earthquake. Dense measurements vastly improve the clarity with which we can view these processes, offering new insights into how the lithosphere evolves and what drives the behavior of large earthquakes.

For ambient and electronic artists, the music of the winter season holds a special appeal. Dense drones, chilled harmonies, bright bells and percussion, and the psychoactive power of minimalist patterns — add up to a powerful palette of musical elements. The small but artistically mighty countries of Scandinavia and the Arctic north produce far more than their share of world-class music across a wide range of contemporary genres and music for film. Nourishing it all is the influence of the extraordinary natural environment: the cold North Sea and volcanic islands, the dramatic coastal mountains and fjords, the vast boreal forests, the visual magic of fog, mist, and snow, and the otherworldly spectacle of the auroras—the famous northern lights. On this transmission of Hearts of Space, wintry ambient from Scandinavia and the Arctic north to Northern California, on a program called "NORTHERN LIGHTS 5." Music is by ROBERT JÜRJENDAL, ERIK WØLLO, PHILLIP WILKERSON & CHRIS RUSSELL, SNOWDROPS, TERJE ISUNGSET & EIVIND AARSET, MARK BANNING (RIP), and JEFF PEARCE.

I once heard the original Pathologic (Ice-Pick Lodge) described as "the best game you shouldn't play", which is an oddly appealing pitch to me. I need to see what it is that puts it in that category, ya know? Luckily for me, Pathologic 2 exists and seems to be the preferred way for many to get the Pathologic experience, and I was not disappointed with what I got. Dense worldbuilding, intriguing and mysterious characters, harsh but meaningful survival systems and more await anyone who decides to take our recommendation and play Pathologic 2.

Dr Chris van Tulleken has been at the forefront of the campaign to change our food system and better regulate the sale of ultra-processed foods (UPF). This year he will be giving the Royal Institution Christmas lectures, Britain's most prestigious public science lectures, in which he'll be investigating how food has fundamentally shaped human evolution, the importance of our microbiome – as the extra ‘organ' we didn't know we had – and how we can all eat better in future, for the sake of our own health and the health of the planet. Nicola Davis sat down with Van Tulleken to discuss the lectures, the challenge of understanding the impact of UPFs on our health, and his top tip for Christmas dinner. Madeleine Finlay hears from them both in this Christmas special edition of Science Weekly. Help support our independent journalism at theguardian.com/sciencepod

Life has a way of adapting when things change. An impact by a giant asteroid wiped out most of the life on Earth about 66 million years ago. Within years, though, life began to rebound – especially plant life. Dense forests developed. And a recent study says that, in the western hemisphere, the winners included grapes and other viny plants. The asteroid was about six miles in diameter. According to another recent study, it was born in the early solar system, beyond the orbit of Jupiter. An encounter with another body kicked it toward the Sun – and Earth. When the asteroid hit Earth it created a huge fireball and a shockwave that destroyed everything within hundreds of miles. It also gouged a giant crater, which blasted billions of tons of water and rock into the sky – enough to blot out the Sun for years. It also created acid rain across the globe and caused other major problems. So most life perished. But research in recent years has shown that new plant life quickly thrived. One example was found by researchers who were studying fossilized grapes in the Americas. They discovered the oldest grape seed ever seen in the western hemisphere – 60 million years old. The researchers suggested that, without giant animals around to knock down trees, forests could have grown taller and thicker. Viny plants that climbed the trees also developed – including grapes. We’ll have more about space rocks tomorrow. Script by Damond Benningfield
