Unveiling Ancient Sahul's Submerged Human Habitation Mosaic

New research reveals that the submerged landscapes of Sahul, the ancient landmass comprising Australia and New Guinea, were once a vast expanse of dry land connecting the Kimberley and Arnhem Land. Through analysis of bathymetric data, it was discovered that this region existed as an archipelago during the Ice Age, supporting fluctuating populations of 50,000 to 500,000 people. However, rapid sea level rises caused profound changes in human life, triggering the retreat of populations and the appearance of new rock art styles. These findings challenge the narrative of early human migration and highlight the impact of climate change on ancient populations.

The Feasibility of Long-Term Human Survival in Deep Space

A new theory called Pancosmorio suggests that long-term human habitation in deep space requires a self-restoring, Earth-like ecosystem to sustain technology, infrastructure, and society. Crucial elements include replicating Earth’s 1G of gravity and maintaining a dependable oxygen supply, water availability, waste management, and a functioning agriculture system, all of which necessitate substantial energy likely greater than our current capabilities. The theory outlines the intricate challenges of maintaining gravity and oxygen, securing water, cultivating food, and managing waste while being distant from Earth.

"NASA Plans to Send Four Humans to Live on Mars in 2023"

NASA is training four people to live on Mars as part of its human exploration expedition. The volunteers will be part of a year-long mission to prepare humans for the exploration of the Red Planet. They will live in a habitat that will simulate conditions on Mars when humans arrive on the Red Planet in the near future. The crew is scheduled to begin in June this year. NASA has planned three such missions to be sent to Mars.
