0:00.0 | Understanding the human body is a team effort. That's where the Yachtel group comes in. |
0:05.8 | Researchers at Yachtolt have been delving into the secrets of probiotics for 90 years. |
0:11.0 | Yacold also partners with nature portfolio to advance gut microbiome science through the global grants for gut health, an investigator-led research program. |

0:34.3 | Happy Monday, listeners. |
0:35.8 | Let's kick off the week by catching up on some of the latest science news. |
0:40.2 | For Scientific American Science Quickly, I'm Rachel Feltman. |
0:44.4 | We'll start with some good news. |
0:46.6 | It turns out that Earth is habitable. |
0:51.0 | That's according to the European Space Agency's Jupiter-icey moons explorer, aka Juice, which |
0:56.5 | made a flyby of our planet recently. |
0:58.7 | The ESA took the opportunity to do a test run of Juce's instruments, which it will use to look |
1:03.4 | for molecular signatures of habitability on the moon's Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto. |
1:09.0 | It's actually making several loops around the sun to get a gravity |
1:11.7 | assist to slingshot it all the way into Jupiter's orbit. So it's going to make a few more flybys |
1:16.3 | before it finally gets to its destination in 2013. But if we want to keep that habitability |
1:21.9 | status, we really need to clean up our act. Last Tuesday, a study found that human methane emissions jumped by 15 to 20 percent between |
1:31.4 | 2000 and 2020, which is the most recent year we have complete data for. |
1:36.2 | Methane levels in the air have more than doubled compared to pre-industrial levels. |
1:40.4 | The study also found an increase in natural methane emissions from sources like tropical wetlands, |
