The earliest stages of planet formation may have been far more selective than scientists once realized. As the young Solar System began assembling solid objects such as planets, moons, and protoplanets, two major types of material were available. One was chondrules, millimeter-sized pieces of rock formed at high temperatures. The other was matrix, a cold, fine-grained dust rich in water ice and organic material. New research led by Yale University suggests that the Solar System strongly favored the heat-formed material almost immediately. Researchers have found the first geochemical evidence showing that chondrules were already being preferentially incorporated into solid bodies…

Two divergent worldviews emerged from the first two national addresses on the opening day of the United Nations General Assembly’s 81st session in New York.  Brazil’s president, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva called for decarbonizing economies, protecting forests and supporting the energy transition through technology transfer. U.S. President Donald Trump followed with a rejection of global climate and artificial intelligence regulations, dismissing warnings about global warming while presenting fossil fuel abundance and technological supremacy as foundations of national power. This year’s General Assembly session is taking place against a slew of global challenges supercharged by geopolitical rivalries and rising planetary…

No politician craves obscurity, but it is better to be unknown than despised. That is consolation for Liberal Democrats, gathered in Brighton for their annual conference, fretting about Ed Davey’s low profile and wondering whether a more prominent leader would hoist their flagging poll ratings.Renewal by decapitation is a concept that has succeeded twice this parliament for other parties. Labour’s fortunes were transformed when Andy Burnham entered No 10. The Greens enjoyed a polling surge last year when Zack Polanski was elected leader. In the fidgety culture of British politics, Davey’s six-year reign feels like an aeon. But the experience…

Attacks on the government’s independent economic forecaster from left and right of the political spectrum are akin to “shooting the messenger”, according to an influential group of MPs.The Treasury committee rejected “siren calls to fundamentally reform” the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) and said it should not be blamed when policymakers had to make tough decisions because of tight public finances.However, the MPs said they were persuaded that ministers should consider instructing the OBR to adopt a 10-year economic forecast to complement the five- and 50-year forecasts that it already publishes.Parliament should also set aside time to debate the OBR’s…

On the flight out to New York this week, one of Andy Burnham’s senior aides warned him that meeting Donald Trump would be the political equivalent of white water rafting.While there is a well-known playbook the US president deploys when he first meets other world leaders, he remains a deeply unpredictable figure and any dealings with him can leave you crashing into the rocks.Trump’s strategy involves personal flattery, transactional diplomacy and a public evaluation of his guest’s skills.When Keir Starmer first met the president at the White House early last year, it was there in spades. Trump praised his “beautiful”…
