  • Meteorites falling on Earth today are believed to represent 100–150 parent bodies. Within 470 Myr ago sediments at a limestone quarry in Sweden, Schmitz et al. have found and identified a new type of meteorite based on chromium and oxygen isotopes sourced from a previously unknown parental body.

  • Calcification temperatures in the Pyrenees were 5 °C higher during the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum than in the Late Paleocene, and meridional temperature gradients were reduced to 0.7–0.4 °C/degree over 25–75°N, according to an analysis of clumped isotopes in soil carbonates and model simulations.

  • The Great Ordovician Biodiversification Event coincides ~470 million years ago with the break-up of a large asteroid and the resultant frequent bombardment of Earth with asteroid fragments.

  • Heck et al. provide the first experimental evidence that the composition of meteorites falling on the Earth changes with time. The distribution of meteorites 470 million years ago is significantly different from today — an effect linked to events happening in the asteroid belt.

  • At the Palaeocene/Eocene boundary, 55 million years ago, temperatures and atmospheric concentrations of CO2were especially high. New data, which track the response of the oceans' biosphere, point to a plausible mechanism by which such an episode of greenhouse warming may end.

  • Early stellarator designs suffered from high particle losses, an issue that can be addressed by optimization of the coils. Here the authors measure the magnetic field lines in the Wendelstein 7-X stellarator, confirming that the complicated design of the superconducting coils has been realized successfully.
