    How Nutrients May Reach Europa’s Hidden Ocean Through Its Extending Ice Shell

    Intro: A New Route for Nutrient Transfer on Europa Researchers from Washington State University and Virginia Tech have proposed a plausible mechanism by which nutrients could move from the radiation-burnished surface of Jupiter’s moon Europa into its long-hidden subsurface ocean. The finding adds a critical piece to the puzzle of Europa’s habitability, offering a testable…

    Nutrients Penetrate Europa’s Ice Shell to Feed Ocean

    New Pathways to Europa’s Hidden Ocean In a recent breakthrough, geophysicists from Washington State University and Virginia Tech propose a plausible mechanism by which nutrients could move from the constantly bombarded surface of Jupiter’s icy moon Europa into its hidden subsurface ocean. The idea centers on how radiation-energized surface materials might be transported through the…

    Grey hair in your 20s? 5 nutrients that slow premature greying

    Understanding premature greying and the role of nutrition Seeing grey strands appear well before the typical retirement age can be jarring. While aging and genetics are major factors, science increasingly points to nutrition as a modifiable influence. Research highlighted in dermatology journals shows that people with premature greying often have lower levels of certain nutrients…
