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.

Giant ape’s extinction solved by new fossil analysis

Many of the caves containing Gigantopithecus fossils have been found in Guangxi's distinctive karst landscape. “The early caves at 2 million years old have hundreds of teeth, but the younger caves around the extinction period — there are only 3-4 … teeth,” Westaway said. Isotope analysis of elements such as carbon and oxygen contained in the Gigantopithecus teeth helped the researchers understand how the animal’s diet may have changed over time. Kira Westaway/Macquarie UniversityQuestions remainNo Gigantopithecus fossils from the neck down have ever been found and documented. A November 2019 analysis of proteins found in a Gigantopithecus fossil suggested its closest living relative is the Bornean orangutan.

The state push is also backed by potentially lucrative returns - depending on the business model, returns on rental housing projects could be between high single digit and high teens. According to consulting firm Frost & Sullivan, the size of the rental housing market in China is expected to increase to 2.7 trillion yuan ($372.25 billion) by 2026, after rising to 1.8 trillion yuan in 2021 from 1.2 trillion yuan in 2017. Warburg Pincus also sees more opportunities in the rental housing because of increasingly attractive asset prices and less competition from cash-strapped local developers. As part of that, regulators have asked trust companies to provide financing to developers for rental housing construction and acquisitions. Across cycles, investment demand may have been affected but not overall housing demand," said Warburg Pincus' Zhang.
