It killed some alternate ideas about gravity, too!
The universe is pretty good at smashing things together. And when neutron stars do it, the collisions release a flood of elements necessary for life.
Cloudflare, The internet infrastructure company, already has its fingers in a lot of customer security pots, from DDoS protection to browser isolation to a mobile VPN. Now the company is taking on a classic web foe: email.
On Monday, Cloudflare is announcing a pair of email safety and security offerings that it views as a first step toward catching more targeted phishing attacks, reducing the effectiveness of address spoofing, and mitigating the fallout if a user does click a malicious link. The features, which the company will offer for free, are mainly geared toward small business and corporate customers. And they’re made for use on top of any email hosting a customer already has, whether it’s provided by Google’s Gmail, Microsoft 365 Yahoo, or even relics like AOL.
Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince says that from its founding in 2,009 the company very intentionally avoided going anywhere near the thorny problem of email. But he adds that email security issues are unrelenting, so it has become necessary. “I think what I had assumed is that hosting providers like Google and Microsoft and Yahoo were going to solve this issue, so we weren’t sure there was anything for us to do in the space,” Prince says. “But what’s become clear over the course of the last two years is that email security is still not a solved issue.”

New research sheds light on the Fermi Paradox.
Italian-American nuclear physicist Enrico Fermi asked his colleagues a question during a lunchtime conversation. The Fermi Paradox is famous for questioning whether aliens exist.
To treat lymphoma in dogs, veterinarians have traditionally relied on chemotherapy drugs first designed for people.
Now, the FDA has approved a medication specifically designed to treat canine cancer — and the new approach to chemo drug development might end up helping humans.

Pfizer is investigating an oral antiviral drug that could prevent Covid-19 infection after being exposed to the virus, the company announced Monday, as scientists around the world work to develop new tools to fight Covid-19 and ease the burden on overwhelmed hospitals.
Pfizer said it is launching a mid-to-late-stage clinical trial to test whether the antiviral drug, PF-07321332, can prevent Covid-19 infection in some 2,660 healthy adults living in the same house as someone with a confirmed symptomatic infection.
The trial will test the safety and efficacy of the pill with ritonavir, another antiviral widely used to treat HIV.
