Revived fossils

German scientists turned an ancient lizard's remains into a robot to determine the way it moved.

To do this, scientists placed bones on robotic paws and programmed this robo-zombie to follow the tracks. As a result they found that it moved like modern crocodiles - very nimbly and rapidly.

The world's largest active volcano, Hawaii's Mauna Loa, is erupting for the first time in almost 40 years.

An ashfall advisory is in effect for Hawaii's Big Island and the surrounding waters, and residents have been told to remain vigilant. The volcano's alert level has been upgraded from an "advisory" to a "warning", its highest classification.

Mauna Loa last erupted in March and April of 1984, sending lava flows within 5 miles (8km) of the city of Hilo.

European energy production from different types of power plants in 2022

Another small but important factor contributing to the current European gas crisis is the abnormal heat wave.

On the one hand, because of the abnormal heat wave, there is a drought, lower water levels in rivers and a drop in hydropower generation (in January-July 2022 - 20% compared to the same period in 2021). On the other hand, due to the increased temperature of rivers it became more difficult to cool the reactors of nuclear power plants, so the output of nuclear power plants had to be reduced (by 12% compared to last year).

Result: growth of production at gas-fired power plants (namely gas is the second largest source of energy in the EU now), by 4% compared to last year, despite all the problems with prices and supplies. By the way, the output of coal-fired power plants also grew quite nicely, by 11% at once.
