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 | Yachtold also partners with nature portfolio to advance gut microbiome science through the global grants for gut health, an investigator-led research program. |
0:20.1 | To learn more about Yachtolt, visit yawcult.co.j.p. |
0:23.9 | That's y-A-K-U-L-T dot-C-O-J-P. |
0:28.4 | When it comes to a guide for your gut, count on YacLt. |
0:32.2 | Happy Monday, listeners. |
0:33.6 | For Scientific American Science Quickly, I'm Rachel Feltman. |
0:37.1 | Let's kick off the week with a quick roundup of some science news you may have missed. |
0:45.4 | You've probably heard that our galaxy, the Milky Way, is doomed to collide with the neighboring |
0:50.1 | Antromeda Galaxy sometime around 5 billion years from now. |
0:54.0 | But according to new research, maybe we shouldn't count on this multi-galactic merger deal going through. |
0:59.0 | In a study published last Monday in Nature Astronomy, researchers who analyzed data from the |
1:04.0 | European Space Agency's Gaia Space Telescope and NASA's Hubble say the event is more of a coin flip than a given. The team's 100,000 computer |
1:12.9 | simulations suggests that there's just about a 50-50 chance of the two galaxies colliding |
1:18.2 | within the next 10 billion years or so. When you look at the next 4 to 5 billion years, |
1:23.0 | that chance drops down to around 2%. In other space news, scientists are buzzing about a tiny star that punches way above its weight. |
1:35.3 | TOI-6894 is a red dwarf that's roughly 20% as massive as our sun. |
1:40.8 | But in a study published last Wednesday in nature astronomy, researchers say they've spotted |
1:45.0 | the signature of a giant planet orbiting this little guy. |
1:48.0 | The planet, called T-O-I-6894B, is described as a low-density gas giant. |
1:54.0 | It's a little bigger than Saturn, but only has around half as much mass. |
