  • The naked mole-rat exhibits extreme longevity, resistance to hypoxia and absence of cardiovascular disease. Here, Faulkes et al. identify mechanisms behind these traits by comparing cardiac metabolomes and transcriptomes of naked more-rats to other African mole-rat genera and evolutionary divergent mammals.

  • By day 1,041 after explosion, SN Ia-CSM 2018evt had produced an estimated 0.01 solar masses of dust in the cold, dense shell behind the supernova ejecta–circumstellar medium interaction, ranking it as one of the most prolific dust-producing supernovae ever recorded.

  • Outbursts from accreting pulsars encode much information on mass accretion in X-ray binary systems. Measuring optical as well as X-ray pulsations can constrain models and, indeed, point to particle acceleration taking place during accretion.

  • Naked mole rat (NMR) is an exceptionally long-lived rodent species that on the phenotypic level seems to evade aging. Here the authors show that NMRs age epigenetically, while epigenetic clocks detect that NMR queens age more slowly than nonbreeding females.

  • A nine-year transit-timing campaign has measured the extremely low masses and densities of four large planets orbiting the young star V1298 Tau, which are now predicted to contract and form a typical compact super-Earth and sub-Neptune system.

  • Long duration γ-ray bursts (GRBs) release copious amounts of energy across the entire electromagnetic spectrum, and provide a window into the process of black hole formation from the collapse of massive stars. Observations of the extraordinarily bright prompt optical and γ-ray emission of GRB 080319B shows that the prompt emission stems from a single physical region, implying an extremely relativistic outflow that propagates within the narrow inner core of a two-component jet.

  • Observations of six transiting planets around the bright nearby star HD 110067 show that they follow a chain of resonant orbits, with three of the planets inferring the presence of large hydrogen-dominated atmospheres.

  • KBO 55636 (2002 TX300) is one of the Kuiper belt objects — specifically, a member of the water-ice-rich Haumea KBO collisional family. Here, observations are reported of a multi-chord stellar occultation by KBO 55636. Calculations show that KBO 55636 is smaller than previously thought and, like its parent body, is highly reflective. The dynamical age implies either that it has an active resurfacing mechanism, or that fresh water-ice in the outer Solar System can persist for gigayear timescales.

  • Very early observations of a type Ia supernova—from within one hour of explosion—show a red colour that develops and rapidly disappears. These data provide information on the initial explosion mechanism: surface nuclear burning on the white dwarf or extreme mixing of the nuclear burning process.

  • Type II supernova explosions are common, but our understanding of such events is not complete. Such an event was observed just three hours after the explosion started, providing important information about the early stages.

  • The spectral properties of a short gamma-ray burst indicate that, contrary to expectations, it arose from the collapse of a massive star rather than from a compact binary merger. This discovery also confirms that most collapsars do not produce ultra-relativistic jets.

  • Transit timing variations of the four-planet system Kepler-223 are used to compute the long-term stability of the system, which has a chain of resonances; the results suggest that inward planetary migration, rather than in situ assembly, is responsible for the formation of some close-in sub-Neptune systems.

  • Surfactant protein B (SP-B) deficiency is a genetic lung disease that results in lethal respiratory distress within months of birth. Here, the authors describe a gene therapy strategy using a rationally designed AAV6 capsid that restores surfactant homeostasis, prevents lung injury, and improves survival in a mouse model of SP-B deficiency.

  • It is unclear how changes in gene expression are induced by changes in oxygen levels during late lung development. Here, the authors provide data from MULTI-seq scRNAseq in mice showing exposure to higher oxygen levels affects cell fates, especially for alveolarisation, and define gene/cell signatures of impaired lung development under hyperoxia.

  • Developing cleaner chemical processes often involves sophisticated flow-chemistry equipment that is not available in many economically developing countries. For reactions where it is the data that are important rather than the physical product, the networking of chemists across the internet to allow remote experimentation offers a viable solution to this problem.
