We’re all very lucky we get to watch this. Not even just as Spurs fans. I’m talking like, as basketball fans. As Sports fans. As Human beings. We’re getting to watch something great unfold right in front of our eyes. It’s like watching the Grand Canyon take shape in real time. It’s not the first time this kid has left me at a loss for words and I’m sure it won’t be the last. Most of the conversation around Victor right now has, frankly, very little to do with him. It’s all about the supporting cast. The people that are…

It’s official: NASA’s OSIRIS-REx spacecraft snagged 121.6 grams of pristine space rocks when it bopped the asteroid Bennu four years ago, more than double the mission’s official science goal, the agency confirmed February 15. Launched in 2016, OSIRIS-REx is NASA’s first mission to collect samples from an asteroid and return them to Earth so scientists can study our solar system’s origins. After performing its grab-and-go procedure from the diamond-shaped Bennu, the spacecraft dropped its canister into our atmosphere last year (SN: 9/22/23). Engineers swiftly shuttled it off to a specially designed sample curation center at the Johnson Space Center in…

The idea that male mammals tend to be larger than females has been scientific dogma since Darwin. Bigger bodies, the thinking goes, are better in the battle to win the attention of choosy females. Turns out, that dogma may need updating. In just over half of roughly 400 mammal species, females equal, or outweigh, their male counterparts, researchers report March 12 in Nature Communications. The persistence of the larger male narrative, the scientists say, reflects biases in the scientific literature that have existed for over a century and have constrained biologists’ understanding of how sexual selection works. The standard story…

Nasal rinses can relieve sinus congestion. But using the wrong liquid can, in rare cases, give people infections with deadly brain-eating amoebas. Washing the sinuses with unsterilized tap water can expose people to Acanthamoeba and Naegleria fowleri, amoebas commonly found in lakes, rivers and other bodies of water, but which can also live in tap water. The single-celled organisms can cause skin diseases, eye or lung infections and fatal brain infections (SN: 7/20/15). That practice is the likely source of rare Acanthamoeba infections in 10 people in the United States, most of which occurred in the past decade, researchers from the U.S.…

Travis Kelce doesn’t need to attend any of the several Taylor Swift-centered college classes being taught at universities across the world — he gets to learn from the master herself. While promoting his spring music festival Kelce Jam, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end gushed about what he’s learned about music and live shows from his superstar girlfriend, whose global Eras Tour he’s attended several times in the past year. “It’s definitely been fun to experience her taste in music, for sure,” he told Entertainment Tonight Tuesday (April 2). “She’s so amazing at what she does, and to find that…
