Comet 3I/ATLAS, Spotted By ATLAS In Chile, Is The Fastest Comet Ever At 130k Mph. Likely From A Distant Solar System, Its Speed Comes From Billions Of Years Of Gravitational Slingshots. Hubble Showed Its 1k Ft To 3.5-Mile-Wide Icy Core & Dust Tail. Nearing The Sun By 10/25, It May Disintegrate Or Survive/Speed Up; Its Fate Will Be Clear By 12/25.

Researchers Found That Injecting Reduced HMGB1 Protein From An Oxygen-Free Env. Can Trigger Aging In Healthy Human And Mice Cells, Causing Them To Stop Dividing & Deteriorate. Older Adults’ Blood Has More Of This Reduced HMGB1, Suggesting Aging May Spread Via Blood Signals & Not Just Within Cells, Opening Doors For Anti-Aging Therapies.
