Study Revives Coastal Origin Theory for Early Humans 70,000 Years Ago

A new wave of reporting on human origins is drawing attention to the possibility that early Homo sapiens may have expanded from Africa’s coastlines about 70,000 years ago, rather than from an inland route alone. The claim does not overturn the scientific consensus that modern humans evolved in Africa, but it underscores how coastal environments may have helped shape migration, survival, and adaptation in the late Pleistocene.

Deep-Sea Rocks Ignite on Exposure, Exposing a New Risk for Mining and Climate Science

Scientists have found that certain deep-sea sulfide rocks can heat up and spontaneously combust when brought into contact with air, a discovery that adds a fresh safety and environmental complication to the race for critical minerals. The finding could reshape handling protocols for seabed samples and intensify scrutiny of deep-sea mining proposals already facing scientific and regulatory resistance.
