Cooperative sperm outrun loners in the mating race. In simulated reproductive tracts of animals like cattle and humans, the behavior increases the chances that groups of cooperative bovine sperm will outpace meandering loners as they race to fertilize a female egg cell, physicists report.

This ancient worm might be an important evolutionary missing link

Some seabirds survive typhoons by flying into them. Streaked shearwaters nesting on islands off Japan sometimes head straight toward passing typhoons, where they fly near the eye of the storm for hours at a time. It’s the first time this behavior has been observed in any bird species.

A clam presumed extinct for 40,000 years has been found alive. Known as Cymatioa cooki, the clam had only ever been found as a fossil, and scientists presumed that the species had been extinct for more than 40,000 years.

For the first time, astronomers saw dust in space being pushed by starlight

For the first time, astronomers have observed how certain supermassive black holes launch jets (outflows of ionised matter) of high-energy particles into space
