Mysterious dwarf planet-sized asteroid is hidden in our solar system, study suggests
Posted by Genevieve Klien in category: space
Our solar system appears to be home to a huge and unknown dwarf planet-sized asteroid, according to a new study.
A small shard of meteorite that arrived on Earth in 2008 appears to have come from the asteroid, according to researchers who have studied the sample.
The parent asteroid appears to be roughly the size of Ceres, the dwarf planet is the biggest object in the asteroid belt, the researchers say. It also appears to have been formed around water and under some pressure, they found.

Dr. Andrews- Gene Therapy
Posted by Montie Adkins in categories: biotech/medical, genetics, life extension
Lots of good telomere info but one small problem with Mr Andrews here. He states that he agrees with the FDA that you can’t target aging as a disease since it is not measurable. Well i think this has been shown to be false as a result of epigenetic clocks.
I posted a question under the comments on the matter,(Lord Mon) we’ll see if we get a response.
These were our top 20 most viewed blogs of 2020, in reverse order.
Amid all the doom and gloom in the world, some impressive scientific discoveries and technological breakthroughs occurred, as we hope you’ll agree!

In Huge Shock, Mitochondrial DNA Can Be Inherited From Fathers
Posted by Raphael Ramos in categories: biotech/medical, genetics
😃
A piece of high school genetics, relied on for many sorts of genetic testing, has been found to have exceptions. Although mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is normally received from the mother, three families have been identified where people received some of their mtDNA, three-quarters in the most extreme case, from their father. The finding may change the way we treat mitochondrial diseases and brings genetic testing for maternal ancestry into question.
MtDNA exists separately from the rest of our DNA, inside the thousands of mitochondria within each cell, rather than the cell nucleus. It is so widely accepted as being from the mother’s side it is sometimes known as the Eve Gene, the idea being that it can be traced back to some primeval mother of all living humans. Testing of mtDNA is used to identify maternal ancestry.
