Van Steno tot Snickers: het Antropoceen door de ogen van een meerkoet
Wat op het eerste gezicht een gewoon meerkoetnest leek, bleek een vijfsterrenlocatie met een fascinerende geschiedenis. Onder een steiger bij het Rokin in Amsterdam ontdekte bioloog Auke-Florian Hiemstra een waar tijdcapsulenest, van mondkapjes uit de coronatijd tot een Mars-verpakking uit 1994.

Untangling cosmic collisions: a study of particle acceleration and magnetic fields in merging galaxy clusters
On the largest scale, the Universe resembles a cosmic spiderweb. Most galaxies coexist in small groups within the threads of this web. At the nodes of the threads are enormous groups of galaxies forming the largest structures in the universe still held together by gravity: clusters of galaxies.
