How Space Reshapes Human Biology: The DNA Shift 🚀🧬
The Headline: Space travel doesn't change your DNA code, but it changes how your body reads it.
When astronauts return from long-term missions, they are genetically the same people, but their bodies have undergone a radical shift in gene expression.

Why Going to Mars Means You’ll Never Come Back Home
The romanticized vision of a Martian colony hides a dark biological reality. New data on cosmic radiation and low-gravity bone degradation suggests that once the human body adapts to Mars, the return to Earth’s gravity could be fatal.

Ancient DNA from an Ice Age burial in Italy reveals a mother and daughter linked by a rare growth disorder, marking the earliest genetic diagnosis in humans and offering new evidence for care of disabled individuals in prehistory. #Paleogenomics #Archaeology #HumanEvolution https://www.anthropology.net/p/the-short-bones-that-spoke-diagnosing
Casablanca fossils dated 773,000 years back reveal African origin of last common ancestor of humans and Neanderthals
A set of ancient human bones from Casablanca reshapes how we think about early human history. New research places a key ancestral population of modern humans and Neanderthals in northwest Africa around 773,000 years ago...

A lavish Ice Age burial in Italy now tells a darker story. New forensic analysis shows a 15-year-old, “Il Principe,” was likely mauled by a bear 27,000 years ago, offering rare evidence of humans as prey. #Paleolithic #HumanEvolution #Archaeology https://www.anthropology.net/p/the-prince-and-the-bear
Hafted stone tools from Xigou, China, dated to 160,000 to 72,000 years ago, reveal deep traditions of composite technology in East Asia. The findings challenge old ideas of technological simplicity. #Paleolithic #HumanEvolution #Archaeology https://www.anthropology.net/p/the-forest-on-a-handle-how-early
Two rare wooden tools from Greece, dated to 430,000 years ago, reveal a hidden side of early hominin technology. These fragile artifacts hint at a vanished world of organic tools that shaped daily life. #Paleoanthropology #Archaeology #HumanEvolution #Paleolithic @kharvati https://www.anthropology.net/p/the-tools-that-time-almost-erased
Chimpanzee groups show that bigger can be better for sharing. New experiments reveal that tolerant groups with restrained leaders sustain shared resources longer, offering clues to the deep evolutionary roots of cooperation. #Primatology #HumanEvolution #Cooperation #BehavioralEcology https://www.primatology.net/p/when-sharing-becomes-survival-how
Another neat article from Nautilus. It's behind the paywall, but, damn, I love sticks! Makes the subscription worth it.

Bitsue, Tang & Yang review prehistoric demographic events and the genomic profiles of modern Africans and highlight the importance of integrated international cooperation to strengthen African genomics research.
Zhou et al. generated genome-wide data for 46 Qing Dynasty human individuals from the Sanzhiyuan cemetery (China), demonstrating stability of the genetic profile of the Central Plains population for millenia.
