Potentially Alive 830-Million-Year-Old Organisms Found Trapped in Ancient Rock

An incredible discovery has just revealed a potential new source for understanding life on ancient Earth.

A team of geologists has just discovered tiny remnants of prokaryotic and algal life – trapped inside crystals of halite dating back to 830 million years ago.

Halite is sodium chloride, also known as rock salt, and the discovery suggests that this natural mineral could be a previously untapped resource for studying ancient saltwater environments.

“Look 25 Even At 40” Scientists Now Make Old Skin Cells Younger!

Good news! Scientists may have found the key to youthful skin! The Babraham institute of Cambridge University recently conducted game-changing research. In this, old skin cells were reprogrammed to regain youthful function. They could make old skin cells younger by 30 years.

They stopped reprogramming halfway through the process. This novel technique avoids the difficulty of completely losing cell identification.

Using reprogramming to make cells younger while retaining their specialized functions, these researchers have made history.
