A new analysis of seismometer data from Nasa’s Mars Insight Lander, which collected data on the planet from 2018 to 2022 has found evidence of liquid water, lots of it. The water would be rather difficult to access however, being largely at depths of 7 to 12 miles/ 11.5 to 20 km. https://www.bbc.com/news/artic...

A gene enabling resistance to polymyxins, the antibiotics of last resort, has been found to be widespread in pigs and already present in some hospital patients. The research, from South China Agricultural University has been published in The Lancet. http://www.thelancet.com/journ...
"Our results reveal the emergence of the first polymyxin resistance gene that is readily passed between common bacteria such as Escherichia coli and Klesbsiella pneumoniae, suggesting that the progression from extensive drug resistance to pandrug resistance is inevitable", according to researcher Jian-Hua Liu.
