Nasa scientists find evidence of flowing water on Mars

Liquid water runs down canyons and crater walls over the summer months on Mars, according to researchers who say the discovery raises the odds of the planet being home to some form of life.
The trickles leave long, dark stains on the Martian terrain that can reach hundreds of metres downhill in the warmer months, before they dry up in the autumn as surface temperatures drop.
Images taken from the Mars orbit show cliffs, and the steep walls of valleys and craters, streaked with summertime flows that in the most active spots combine to form intricate fan-like patterns.
Scientists are unsure where the water comes from, but it may rise up from underground ice or salty aquifers, or condense out of the thin Martian atmosphere.
“There is liquid water today on the surface of Mars,” Michael Meyer, the lead scientist on READ MORE

Britain's Luftwoofe: The Heroic Paradogs of World War II

Brian was a tough paratrooper. He trained hard for his deployment with the British Army during . During his training, he learned how to identify minefields. Then, on the battlefield, he protected his comrades-in-arms -- though not all of them made it back. On D-Day, he parachuted under heavy anti-aircraft fire onto the Continent. He was there when the Allies liberated Normandy. A few months before the war's end, he parachuted into western Germany, from where he marched to the Baltic Sea.

Less than two years after the war, Brian was given an award to recognize his "conspicuous gallantry." But the bronze medal was not the only thing that distinguished this special soldier from the majority of his comrades: Brian, the tough paratrooper, was a dog, a young Alsatian-Collie mix. During World War II, the 13th (Lancashire) Parachute Battalion started an adventurous experiment as it prepared for D-Day: enlisting dogs into their ranks. The so-called "paradogs" (short for "parachuting dogs") were specifically trained to perform tasks such as locating mines, keeping watch and warning about enemies. As a side job, they also served as something of a mascot for the two-legged troopsREAD MORE

Hedgehogs need your help to save their sanctuary

A NORTH Devon woman who has spent the last eight years nursing sick and injured hedgehogs is facing the possibility of having to close her rescue sanctuary.
Due to a lack of space and funding, Anni Nicholls, who has adored hedgehogs from an early age, is faced with the threat of shutting the doors of North Devon Hedgehog Rescue.
Anni said she was devastated at the thought of having to turn away sick and injured hedgehogs, but has been offered new hope by Bideford-based holiday lettings company holidaycottages.co.uk.
The holidaycottages.co.uk team is looking to raise £2,500 through crowdfunder.co.uk, in order to help prevent the closure.

Dartmoor Skies

Something hit me and I saw stars.

Dartmoor Skies is a charity that aims to inspire people about astronomy and science.
The founders of Dartmoor Skies, Rob and Bryony, have been pitching their telescope up on Dartmoor for the last couple of years and know just how amazing the views of planets, stars and galaxies can be.

Heavens above....

Space. It's quite big and although it is mostly, well, space, it's got lots of stuff in it too. Anyone can look up and be swept away by the beauty of a clear night's sky, and we've found that most people want to learn more about what they are seeing. Our purpose is to make astronomy more accessible by running astronomy events in multiple location and providing a small, but perfectly formed, collection of telescopes for people to use. Think of us as a mini mobile observatory with cakes, hot drinks and blankets.
Nerd-in-residence Rob will give a talk on a chosen subject. He'll then set up the telescopes and make sure they're pointing at interesting space objects for you. Feel free to ask him lots of complicated questions...it'll help him learn too.
Sometimes our events will focus on a particular planet or galaxy. Sometimes they'll be about more general subjects like constellations. For each event there's a talk, possibly some activities, and if the skies are clear we get you outside observing.
There's lots to see on your own doorstep and we hope to make it all a little less daunting.READ MORE

GALLERY: Weird and wonderful animals steal the show for new Guinness World Records

READ MOREOne Durham tortoise has left his competition in the dust by being crowned the fastest the world has ever seen. The speeding tortoise named 'Bertie', from Adventure Valley, Brasside, runs around 0.6 miles per hour. This feat means that Bertie, twice as fast as the average tortoise, could finish a 100m race in just six minutes. Although he may not be competing with Usain Bolt anytime soon, Bertie is content in his "luxury enclosure with his girlfriend Shelly" with plenty of his favourite snack - strawberries. Owner Marco Calzini said: "To be in the book is a dream come true, a massive achievement!” Another adventurous achievement saw a dog break his own record for the most balls caught in just one minute.
