Separately, Parker Solar Probe data revealed a small-scale magnetic reversal in the turbulent solar wind. Genetics: A rare APOE mutation may limit Parkinson’s-related protein buildup, researchers report in a rodent study; its protective effect in people remains unproven. Marine Biology: DNA analysis identified a distinct bramble shark species off Kerala, resolving a decades-old misidentification. Planetary Defense: ESA is seeking designs for a spacecraft that could nudge an asteroid with a beam of charged particles, without touching it. Agricultural Technology: A Kerala high-school student won a state science award for a remote-controlled multipurpose farm vehicle aimed at easing work for small farmers.
