A stir has been caused by a study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences on Monday. The work was described by The Washington Post. The study suggested that brains can't actually belong to the categories of ‘male’ or ‘female’, their unique features actually differ across a spectrum.

The news is very exciting for the ones who study the brain or gender. The study is a step towards validating the experiences of the ones living outside the gender binary.

While describing the significance of their work, the study researchers said their results show that despite the cause of observed sex/gender differences in brain and behavior, classification of human brains can’t be done into 2 distinct categories: male brain/female brain.

The past year, a planet was found sitting at an oddly large distance from its star. It was 16 times farther than Pluto is from the sun. The planet could have been thrown out of its birthplace near to the star in a process that resembles what may have taken place early in the history of our solar system.

The Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) in the Chilean Andes and the Hubble Space Telescope captured some pictures, which have shown that the star has a lopsided comet belt pinpointing a quite disturbed solar system, and suggesting that the planet interactions that roiled the comets nearer to the star could have thrown the exoplanet into exile also. The planet could even have its own ring composed of debris, dragged by it.

World leaders and policymakers are in Paris to discuss climate change. They are making plans how to tackle global warming in near future. But, South African-born Canadian-American business magnate Elon Musk thinks youth has the power to prevent global warming. He said only carbon tax can help in accelerating the shift from carbon-producing fossil fuels to sustainable energy.

During a conference at the Sorbonne in Paris, SpaceX CEO said young people have the power to make a change. Musk said carbon tax should not be according to revenue. It should be revenue neutral, he added. If government acts as Musk wants, then it will receive the same amount of money. According to Musk, taxes would be weighted heavily on carbon.

A newly released report of Oxfam showed the richest one-tenth in the world could be blamed for 50% of all carbon emissions. The lifestyle choices of the world’s 10% richest population produce about 11 times higher CO2 than poor people around the globe, the report said.

The poorest half of the world, which includes about 3.5 billion individuals, produces just 10% of all carbon dioxide emissions. But still, they are mostly affected by the climate change. They are experiencing deadly natural disasters like drought and flooding, according to the report.

Peaches are widely popular, but the juicy fruit has been in China before the arrival of modern humans in the region. A new research revealed that before ancient humans reached modern-day China, the fruit was already there.

Fossilized peach pits unearthed in southwest China have given hints that peaches may have grown in the East Asian country for millions of years, as per the research published in the journal Scientific Reports.
