SIC Notícias11 September 2026 at 19:35

The first footprints of an adult Tyrannosaurus rex have been discovered. The research team used high-resolution 3D scanning to document the footprints found and create three-dimensional reproductions of them. This discovery represents an important milestone in the study of dinosaurs, allowing scientists to obtain new data on the locomotion and behavior of this prehistoric predator.

Two fireballs and an unusual red sprite leave stunning images in Spain

The Calar Alto Observatory, in the province of Almería, Spain, recorded during the early mornings of September 10 and 11 three notable astronomical phenomena: two fireballs of cometary origin and a red "sprite". The first fireball occurred at 02:29 on the 10th, when a rock detached from a comet entered the atmosphere at approximately 128,000 km/h, beginning at 98 km altitude over the province of Ciudad Real. The cameras also documented a red sprite, a phenomenon lasting only between 3 and 10 milliseconds, triggered by a strong storm in the observatory region.

Did the Sun swallow a super-Earth? The clues may be in its interior

Scientists are investigating the possibility that the Sun engulfed a rocky super-Earth type planet during the early days of the Solar System. A new study suggests that this cataclysmic event could have left detectable chemical signatures in the interior of our star, offering valuable clues about the early evolution of the Solar System and the planetary migration processes that occurred billions of years ago.

Weight loss after 35 requires a look beyond the scale

From the age of 35, losing weight becomes more challenging due to changes in the body. A study by Science with 6,421 participants from 29 countries showed that metabolism remains stable between 20 and 60 years, but the reduction of muscle mass and the reorganization of body fat distribution influence the way the body uses energy. Researchers at City of Hope identified a type of stem cell that produces new abdominal fat cells in midlife, explaining waist growth even without significant variation in total weight.

Treatment of erysipelas should begin at the first signs

Erysipelas is a bacterial infection that affects the superficial dermis and lymphatic vessels, caused mainly by beta-hemolytic streptococci, such as Streptococcus pyogenes. The disease can develop rapidly, causing intense redness, warmth, swelling and pain in the skin, as well as fever and malaise. The entry point usually occurs through athlete's foot between the toes, fissures, abrasions, bites or other lesions on the skin. Factors such as chronic edema, venous or lymphatic insufficiency, obesity, diabetes and previous episodes increase the risk. Treatment should be started quickly at the first signs to avoid complications.
