Researchers have a new theory about why oldest siblings tend to make more money than younger siblings. A working paper published by the National Bureau of Economic Research, says higher sickness rates among younger siblings could affect their future earnings. The researchers found that younger siblings were 2-3 times as likely as their older siblings to be hospitalized for respiratory conditions during the first year of their lives. The disparity was the largest when the second child was born in fall or winter — when respiratory illnesses are more common. It’s possible that infants with older siblings have more virus exposure – thanks to the older sibling, who is often in childcare and “brings home” viruses.

A
mysterious signal that for a decade was widely believed to be a sign
of alien life – was probably noise from a loud truck, researchers
from Johns Hopkins University say. Initially believed to be from a
meteor fireball that shot out near Papua New Guinea, the new
information also throws cold water on speculation by a Harvard
physicist that ocean-recovered materials were of extraterrestrial
origin. As the leader of the Hopkins team, who is a seismologist,
pointed out: “The signal changed directions over time, exactly
matching a road that runs past the seismometer.”

Christopher Nolan’s payday for “Oppenheimer” is…well…exploding. The director-producer took home 2 Oscars on Sunday night, and a report by Variety says his final earnings for the film, which traces the life of scientist J. Robert Oppenheimer and his role in creating the atomic bomb, is just south of $100 million. That figure represents a combination of salary, backend compensation, box-office escalators and a bonus for his Academy Awards. The film — which nabbed 7 Oscars total, was made on a budget of $100 million. After its release on July 19, it earned $958 million worldwide, especially impressive considering its R rating and 3-hour running time.

Airbnb has announced that it is banning security cameras inside guest homes, as a way of providing more privacy to customers. Up until now, the home rental platform allowed hosts to install indoor security cameras in common areas such as hallways and living rooms – as long as they were clearly visible and mentioned online in the property’s official listing. But some guests claimed on social media that they found seemingly hidden cameras in areas where privacy is expected. In a blog post, the company said: “Airbnb is banning the use of indoor security cameras in listings globally as part of efforts to simplify our policy on security cameras…and to continue to prioritize the privacy of our community.” The new policy goes into effect on April 30.

The team involved in a plan to genetically engineer a version of the woolly mammoth says the project is moving right along. The long-term goal is to create a living, walking elephant-mammoth hybrid that would be pretty much the same as its extinct forerunner, which lived about 4,000 years ago. Scientists say that if the newly-created tusked species was released into its natural habitat in sufficient numbers, it could help restore the fragile Arctic tundra ecosystem. Resurrecting the beast has been a pet project of Harvard University geneticist George Church for more than a decade. After analyzing the genomes of woolly mammoths from fossils, his team plans to use elephant stem cells which have been edited to have mammoth-like genetic traits. The elephant’s cells could be used to make eggs and sperm and an embryo that could be grown in an artificial womb. And considering that womb hasn’t been developed yet, there are still years of work ahead. There are also plans to resurrect the Tasmanian tiger and the dodo…but those ones haven’t got off the tundra ground yet!

A newly-developed low-cost liquid may someday end tooth decay for kids. Researchers from New York University’s College of Dentistry discovered that silver diamine fluoride (SDF), an affordable cavity-fighting liquid, matches the effectiveness of traditional dental sealants in preventing tooth decay among elementary school students. They say their study provides a compelling case for incorporating SDF into school-based cavity prevention and treatment programs, potentially enhancing dental care access while simultaneously cutting costs. SDF is painted onto teeth, where it kills decay-causing bacteria and helps re-mineralize the teeth, preventing further decay. Initially developed for treating tooth sensitivity, SDF has now been recognized for its cavity-preventing capabilities.
