An analysis of radioactive chemicals in ice cores indicates one of the most powerful solar storms ever hit Earth around 7,176 B.C.

(Inside Science) — For a few nights more than 9,000 years ago, at a time when many of our ancestors were wearing animal skins, the northern skies would have been bright with flickering lights.

Telltale chemical isotopes in ancient ice cores suggest one of the most massive solar storms ever took place around 7,176 B.C., and it would have been noticed.

Fluicell, a bioprinting firm based in Sweden, has launched its new high-precision 3D printer, the Biopixlar AER.

Intended as a successor to the original Biopixlar, the device is Fluicell’s second single-cell 3D bioprinting system. The company has designed its latest machine to be as compact and accessible as possible, and claims that it’s the world’s first microfluidic bioprinter that fits inside a standard flow hood or biosafety cabinet. This enables users to easily integrate it with other in vitro and 3D cell culture technologies.

Victoire Viannay, CEO of Fluicell, said, “With Biopixlar AER, we have reached a new important milestone and we can now offer a pioneering product, fully tailored to meet current and future needs in the rapidly accelerating life science and research sector.”

This one is designed to fly for over 4 hours without stopping.

MercadoLibre, one of the most important e-commerce companies in Latin America, confirmed unauthorized access to a part of its source code, in addition to confirming that the attackers managed to access the personal records of some 300,000 users. The company has not confirmed that its IT infrastructure was affected during the incident.

The Argentine firm confirmed the compromise of its systems after hackers from the Latin American group Lapsus$ threatened to expose confidential information from MercadoLibre and other e-commerce platforms. Faced with this threat, MercadoLibre enabled all its security and containment protocols, so it recommended that users of the platform change their passwords and monitor their account statements to prevent any attempt at malicious activity.
