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. |
0:19.6 | To learn more about Yachtolt, visit yawcult.co. |
0:22.7 | .jp.j. That's Y-A-K-U-L-T.C-O.J-P. When it comes to a guide for your gut, count on Yacolt. |
0:33.5 | Hi, I'm Scott Hirschberger, with Scientific American as an American Association for the Advancement of Science, Mass Media, Science, and Engineering Fellow. |
0:42.9 | And here's a short piece from the September 2020 issue of the magazine in the section called advances, dispatches from the frontiers of science, technology, and medicine. |
0:51.8 | The article is titled Quick Hits, and it's a rundown of |
0:55.2 | some stories from around the globe. From Argentina, the earliest dinosaurs laid soft-shelled eggs, |
1:01.3 | paleontologists say. A new chemical analysis of a more than 200 million-year-old fossilized egg |
1:07.0 | from Patagonia, and a clutch of more recent eggs from Mongolia, found in the Gobi Desert, |
1:11.9 | revealed a thin film matching the characteristics of modern soft-shelled eggs. |
1:16.4 | From England, archaeologists found that 20 deep shafts, previously thought to be natural sinkholes |
1:21.9 | and ponds, were dug by Neolithic humans. |
1:25.0 | The shafts form a circle two kilometers in diameter, with the Durrington |
1:28.9 | Walls monument at its center, just three kilometers from Stonehenge. From Brazil, researchers |
1:35.1 | documented the largest lightning bolt ever recorded. The mega-flash, which extended for more than 700 |
1:41.0 | kilometers in southern Brazil in 2018, was detected by a new advanced |
1:46.0 | weather satellite in geostationary orbit. |
1:49.4 | From Israel, researchers sequenced DNA samples from the Dead Sea Scrolls, identifying fragments |
1:55.2 | made from sheepskin and others made from cowhide. |
1:58.6 | The technique could help match fragments together and unraveled the artifacts' geographic origins. |
