    The James Webb Space Telescope sent back new pictures of the Helix Nebula in phenomenal clarity. The space telescope’s website has the photographs in all their glory, along with comparisons to photographs of Helix taken by older space telescopes like VISTA and Hubble. https://esawebb.org/news/weic2601/#ShareGoodNewsToo

    Agrivoltaics boost crop yields even when the solar panels aren’t generating power. New research from Canada shows that shading crops with elevated solar panels creates a cooler, wetter microclimate that can lift yields and improve performance across dozens of crops, from peppers to pasture grass. These benefits persist even when panels are offline, strengthening the case for agrivoltaics as dual-use infrastructure.

    Site in Kenya reveals 300,000 years of uninterrupted toolmaking. Archaeologists uncovered nearly 1,300 stone tools spanning 2.44 to 2.75 million years, showing that early hominins taught and replicated the same techniques across roughly 10,000 generations. During this time period, the surrounding landscape shifted from lush, humid forests to arid desert shrubland and back again - and the hominins survived in part because of their toolmaking traditions. https://www.404media.co/advanced-2-5-million-year-old-tools-may-rewrite-human-history/?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email#ShareGoodNewsToo

    We can now restore memory by recharging the brain’s batteries. French and Canadian researchers have shown that faulty mitochondria directly drive memory loss in dementia. Using a new tool to boost mitochondrial activity in mice, they restored memory performance, proving cause and effect for the first time. The work points to mitochondria as a powerful target for therapies that could slow, or even prevent, neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/08/250811104227.htm?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email#ShareGoodNewsToo
