by
Iceman

The teen version of the character, who came out in April 2015, is made to forget the landmark moment in the final issue of the ‘Extermination’ miniseries. The final issue of Marvel Entertainment’s Extermination series has been released, closing out a six-year era of X-Men comic books by wrapping up a long-dangling plot element — and, in the process, upsetting fans with how it was achieved.

Is Mars Hiding Life Under the Surface? – Live Science

by
Insight - NASA

To find life on Mars, scientists may need to give up surface exploration and “go deep.” Typically, Mars missions searching for signs of life target the planet’s surface, at sites where there are signs of ancient water (a reliable indicator of where life is found on Earth). But while no life has turned up yet on Mars’ surface, there may be an abundance of microbial Martians congregating underground, according to research presented Dec. 11 here at the annual meeting of the American Geophysical Union (AGU).

In a new published study (yes, really), epidemiologists at Macquarie University in Australia analyzed the deaths of the key characters in the “Game of Thrones” HBO series and found that nobles died at a lower rate than commoners, and women died at a lower rate than men.
