‘Quake swarm’ rocks San Andreas fault at Monterey County
Fears of a huge quake have risen in California after a series of 10 ‘mini quakes’ yesterday hit the San Andreas fault.
A string of 10 tremors struck Monterey County, a rural area in California, in what seismologists call a ‘swarm’ of earthquakes.
The largest of this swarm, a 4.6-magnitude quake, was felt in San Francisco more than 90 miles (145 km) away.
Aerial images reveal the closest ever look at Saudi stone structures
The structures were uncovered in the Harrat Khaybar region in Saudi Arabia in the 1920s and were referred to as the ‘Works of the Old Men’ by the region’s Bedouin population.
Most of them were discovered through satellite surveys and no archaeological fieldwork has yet been carried out.
Previous research has found thousands of stone structures that form geometric patterns in the Middle East.

Jouas cautioned that it would take days or months for reinforcements to reach the region, leaving 28,000 American troops and 490,000 South Korean soldiers to fend off 1.2million North Korean fighters.

Outcry as scientists implant tiny human brains inside rats
Tiny human brains connected to the minds of rats have sparked a major ethical debate among researchers.
Two papers being presented at a renowned US neuroscience conference this week claim to have hooked human brain tissue to the minds of rats and mice.
Ethicists have questioned whether the move could one day give the animals a consciousness, meaning they will be entitled to ‘respect’ in future.
