Crowdfunding kindness THUMBS UP!

A man who turned to crowdfunding to pay for a new wheelchair has been stunned by an “amazing display of humanity” from “complete strangers”, BBC News has reported. Robert West, 35, received government funding for a new £11,403 wheelchair, but needed to source nearly £3,000 himself. He raised the money within a day of starting the “embarrassing” appeal. Mr West, from the Huntingdonshire area of Cambridgeshire, described the donors’ help as “life-changing”. The teaching assistant needs a wheelchair to get to work, as well as to socialise, shop and walk his dog, without relying on assistance. Mr West, who has cerebral palsy, said: “I am very grateful. The idea that complete strangers would help someone they hardly know is stunning. It’s an amazing display of humanity.”

Asteroid arrival PUB QUIZ

The asteroid that killed nearly all dinosaurs struck the Earth during the Spring, according to new research reported by Sky News. To reach their conclusions, researchers hunted in parts of North Dakota, in the US, to find fossilised paddlefishes and sturgeons that were killed when the asteroid hit the with Earth. They used powerful X-rays,and carbon isotope records of the bones of fish that died less than an hour after the asteroid hit. The carbon isotopes then acted as tracers to work out how carbon atoms have changed over the years. They found that the shock of the impact caused huge standing waves of water that moved sediment, engulfing fish and burying them alive. 1.

Knock me down with a feather

You look like you’ve seen a ghost…shark As reported by Sky News, a baby ghost shark has been found by scientists off the east coast of New Zealand’s South Island. The days-old creature, which is also known as a chimaera, was discovered shortly after being hatched at a depth of about 1.2km (0.7 miles) on the Chatham Rise, an area of ocean floor. Scientists from the National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research said the deep water shark must have recently been born as its belly was still full of egg yolk. The embryos of ghost sharks develop in egg capsules laid on the sea floor and feed off the yolk until they become ready to hatch. The team was carrying out a trawl survey to estimate populations of hoki fish when they discovered the newly-hatched animal, which is related to both sharks and rays. Other names for it include rat fish, spook fish and rabbit fish, according to the Shark Trust.
