Citando:
"Around one in 90 children born in Las Salinas, in the Dominican Republic's Barahona province, are born with the condition which sees them naturally transform from females to males during puberty.

Referred to as "guevedoces", which translates to "penis at 12", the rare disorder featured in the BBC series Countdown to Life: The Extraordinary Making of You in which youngsters were interviewed."

Rorschach o quê?

https://www.theguardian.com/science/2017/feb/14/why-do-we-see-so-many-different-things-in-rorschach-ink-blots

Citação:
'Nearly a century after Hermann Rorschach invented the ink blot test, the controversial assessment has all but vanished from psychiatric clinics. But even if the blots did not live up to their diagnostic promise, they have remained a source of intrigue to some scientists.

Key among the mysteries is why people see so many shapes and figures in the Rorschach blots, and how some of the strange patterns seem to conjure up more images than others. Writing on Tuesday in the journal Plos One, a group of scientists claim to have an answer."

(...)
"Rorschach, a Swiss Freudian psychiatrist, came up with the ink blot test in 1921 when he published ten cards, five in colour and five in black and white. The blots were made by pouring ink onto cards, folding them, and pressing them tightly to produce the characteristic symmetrical patterns.

Though Rorschach died a year later, the blots were used widely in psychiatry to assess people’s personalities and mental health. In the Nuremberg trials, Hermann Göring, the founder of the Gestapo, said that blot number tworesembled two men in a “fantastic dance”, while Rudolf Hess, appointed deputy führer to Adolf Hitler, saw in it a cross-section of an insect dotted with blood.

By the end of the 20th century, many psychiatrists realised that they could not read too much into the images people reported seeing. “Today, they are more seen as an indication of a person’s creativity. It’s not saying they’ve got a mental disorder because one person sees a hippopotamus and another person sees a naked woman,” said Taylor."

Citando:
"A research team of Indian astronomers has identified a gigantic super cluster of galaxies, as large as 20 million billion suns, that they have named as Saraswati, as stated by Inter-University Centre for Astronomy and Astrophysics (IUCAA) which is based in Pune on Thursday.

This is till date the biggest known structures in the universe’s neighbourhood that are at a distance of 4,000 million light-years from our Earth and approximately more than 11 million years old, IUCAA added. The mass of the star cluster extends over 600 million light years’ scale."

Estrela de tamanho de Saturno

https%3A%2F%2Fphys.org%2Fnews%2F2017-07-smallest-ever-star-astronomers.htm

Citando:
"EBLM J0555-57Ab was identified by WASP, a planet-finding experiment run by the Universities of Keele, Warwick, Leicester and St Andrews. EBLM J0555-57Ab was detected when it passed in front of, or transited, its larger parent star, forming what is called an eclipsing stellar binary system. The parent star became dimmer in a periodic fashion, the signature of an orbiting object. Thanks to this special configuration, researchers can accurately measure the mass and size of any orbiting companions, in this case a small star. The mass of EBLM J0555-57Ab was established via the Doppler, wobble method, using data from the CORALIE spectrograph."
