☆ Scientists identify ‘degrees of Kevin Bacon’ gene

Even humble fruit flies organize themselves into regularly spaced clusters, researchers have found. Within those social networks, certain individuals will often stand out as “gatekeepers,” playing an important role for cohesion and communication within that group. New research published Tuesday in the journal Nature Communications has identified a gene responsible for regulating the structure of social networks in fruit flies. The study opened up new opportunities for exploring the molecular evolution of social networks and collective behavior in other animals.

☆ NASA’s plans to return to moon take a hit

CNN —Humans landed on the moon during NASA’s Apollo program in the late 1960s and 1970s using computers that had far less processing power than today’s smartphones. Several projects are expected to head toward the moon this year with sights set on a soft landing. ExplorationsAstrobotic Technology shared the first image of the Peregrine lunar lander in space on Monday. Once upon a planetThe oldest known fossilized skin is at least 130 million years more ancient than the previously oldest known example. The world’s oldest known fossilized skin belonged to a species of reptile that lived before dinosaurs roamed Earth.

☆ For T. rex and kin, it was a stiff upper lip, not a toothy grin

[1/2] The skeleton of "SUE", the Tyrannosaurus rex is displayed at the Field Museum of Natural History in this undated handout picture. Sealed lips would help saliva secretions in the mouth keep teeth, particularly the enamel, hydrated, Cullen said. An examination of the relationship between tooth size and skull size undercut the idea that large theropods simply had teeth too big to be covered by lips. The study identified large lizard species with lips alive today that possess teeth proportionally bigger than T. rex, relative to skull size. In crocs, teeth show asymmetrical wear, with the side of the exposed teeth facing outward more beat up than the inner side.
