An interactive map by WorldData.info allows users to compare average penis sizes across different countries, addressing a topic of significant curiosity among men. Despite common misconceptions, experts emphasize that penis size is not a crucial factor of masculinity, yet it remains a fixation for many. The map provides data on average erect lengths and their proportions to average height, revealing that Ecuador tops the list with an average length of 17.61 cm, while the United States ranks 60th at 13.58 cm, and the UK follows closely at 68th with 13.13 cm. While the data aims to offer a comparative overview, it is important to note that measurements may be skewed, as self-reported sizes often tend to be inflated. WorldData cautions that the figures should be viewed as general indicators rather than precise evaluations. The full interactive map is available on their website. 
Published: Nov 21 2025, 1 ameznews.inA recent study by theoretical astronomer Brian C. Lacki explores the feasibility and detectability of "Dyson swarms," hypothetical megastructures designed to harness energy from stars. While these swarms could be detectable around certain star types, the research raises concerns about their potential impact on surrounding lifeforms. Lacki notes that if such structures were abandoned, they could lead to catastrophic collisions, resulting in a "collisional cascade" that would reduce the swarm to debris within thousands to billions of years, depending on the star's characteristics. For instance, a Dyson swarm around a Sun-like star could disintegrate in about 41,000 years. The study suggests that advanced civilizations might need to relocate planets to maintain these swarms, potentially leading to barren systems devoid of life. This grim prospect highlights the dual nature of Dyson swarms as both a sign of advanced technology and a harbinger of ecological destruction, raising questions about the implications of detecting such structures in the universe. 
Published: Nov 21 2025, 12 ameznews.inThe US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has stirred controversy by stating on its website that the claim "vaccines do not cause autism" is not evidence-based, contradicting the overwhelming scientific consensus that has consistently found no link between vaccines and autism. This shift comes amid a broader narrative pushed by the current administration, particularly Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a noted vaccine skeptic, who has called for investigations into what he terms an "autism epidemic." Critics, including autism advocacy groups, argue that such rhetoric undermines decades of research and promotes misinformation. The CDC's recent language change has raised concerns about public trust in vaccines, especially as vaccine-preventable diseases are on the rise in the US. Experts warn that this could lead to further confusion and mistrust, jeopardizing public health efforts at a time when vaccination rates are critical. 
Published: Nov 20 2025, 8 pmeznews.inNASA has unveiled a series of observations of the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS, captured during the recent government shutdown. In a press conference, the agency showcased images from eight missions, including the Hubble Space Telescope and the James Webb Space Telescope, alongside data from the ATLAS telescope, which first identified the comet on July 1. Notably, NASA's Perseverance rover made history by capturing the first images of a comet from another planet, while the European Space Agency's Trace Gas Orbiter and China's Tianwen-1 also provided valuable data. The comet, which will make its closest approach to Earth on December 19, is believed to be a relic from an earlier era of the galaxy, potentially twice as old as the Solar System. Despite some criticism regarding the quality of the images, experts assert that the observations confirm 3I/ATLAS's behavior as a comet, enhancing our understanding of interstellar objects. 
Published: Nov 20 2025, 10 pmeznews.inFinger monkeys, or pygmy marmosets, are the world's smallest monkeys, measuring just 12 to 16 centimeters and weighing between 85 to 140 grams. Found in the Amazon basin across Brazil, Ecuador, Colombia, Bolivia, and Peru, these adorable primates thrive in forested areas near rivers, where they communicate through a variety of vocalizations. They primarily feed on tree gum, small insects, and fruits, and live in family groups of up to nine, which helps protect them from predators like eagles and snakes. Both species, the northern (_Cebuella pygmaea_) and eastern pygmy marmoset (_Cebuella niveiventris_), are classified as Vulnerable by the IUCN, with the northern species experiencing a 30% population decline due to habitat loss from deforestation and hunting. Their survival is further threatened by illegal pet trade and habitat destruction for mining and agriculture. 
Published: Nov 20 2025, 10 pmeznews.inThe Grand Canyon, a breathtaking natural wonder, is also the ancestral home of the Havasupai Tribe, who have lived in the area for over 1,000 years. The tribe, whose name means "people of the blue-green waters," resides in Supai, a remote village accessible only by a challenging hike or helicopter. Historically, the Havasupai practiced a migratory lifestyle, farming in the canyon during summer and hunting on the plateau in winter. Despite facing significant challenges, including the establishment of Grand Canyon National Park in 1919, which restricted their access to ancestral lands, the tribe regained over 250,000 acres in the 1970s. Today, they continue to fight against new threats, such as a controversial uranium mine near the park, which they argue could desecrate sacred sites and threaten their existence. Bonnie Wescogane, Secretary of the Havasupai Tribal Council, emphasizes the deep spiritual connection the tribe has to their land and water. 
Published: Nov 20 2025, 10 pmeznews.inArchaeologists from the University of Milan have uncovered a 13th-century skeleton of a young man, believed to have suffered a gruesome death involving a notorious medieval torture method known as "the wheel." This device, used for public executions, involved systematically breaking limbs before further inflicting pain with various instruments. The skeleton, found near a cathedral in northern Italy, exhibited symmetrical wounds on the arms and legs, suggesting intentional injury consistent with wheel torture, often reserved for those accused of heinous crimes or suspected of spreading the plague. Additionally, forensic analysis revealed unusual fractures at the base of the skull, likely from a botched beheading. If confirmed, this discovery would mark the first archaeological evidence of wheel torture in medieval northern Italy, highlighting the brutal realities of historical punishment and societal discrimination against perceived outcasts. 
Published: Nov 17 2025, 6 pmeznews.inA team of astronomers from Princeton University has potentially identified a "very old, undisturbed structure" in the Kuiper Belt, located approximately 43 astronomical units (AU) from the Sun. This finding, which has yet to undergo peer review, suggests the existence of a primordial cluster, referred to as the "inner kernel," characterized by a low eccentricity, indicating a stable and ancient formation. The research builds on previous studies that identified a "kernel" at around 44 AU, but this new structure may offer insights into the early solar system's evolution and the dynamics of giant planet migrations. The team utilized a density-based clustering algorithm to analyze 1,650 Kuiper Belt objects, revealing this potential new structure. Future observations, particularly from the Vera C. Rubin Observatory, are anticipated to clarify whether the inner kernel is a distinct entity or an extension of the existing kernel. 
Published: Nov 20 2025, 11 pmeznews.inChina has announced the discovery of one of its largest gold deposits, the Dadonggou site in Liaoning province, which contains approximately 2.586 million tonnes of gold ore, translating to around 1,444 tonnes of gold. Valued at over $192 billion based on current market prices, this find comes as gold prices have surged, reaching record highs of over $4,000 per ounce in October 2025. The development of the mine will involve a collaboration between China National Gold Group, Liaoning Mineral Geology Group, and the Yingkou Municipal Government, with plans to invest over 20 billion yuan ($2.82 billion) from 2024 to 2027. This discovery follows a previous significant find in Hunan Province, further solidifying China's position as the world's largest gold producer. Experts highlight that the geological conditions in China, shaped by tectonic activity, are conducive to gold formation, enhancing the country's competitive edge in the global gold market. 
Published: Nov 18 2025, 12 ameznews.inA recent study has shed new light on the ancient predator _Dunkleosteus terrelli_, a 4.2-meter (14-foot) fish that roamed the shallow seas of Cleveland 360 million years ago. This research, the first comprehensive examination of the species in nearly a century, reveals that _Dunkleosteus_ was not only unique among its contemporaries but also possessed a skull made up of nearly half cartilage, a trait more commonly associated with modern sharks. The study, led by Russell Engelman from Case Western Reserve University, utilized fossils from the Cleveland Museum of Natural History, which boasts the largest collection of _Dunkleosteus_ remains. The findings challenge the perception of arthrodires, the group to which _Dunkleosteus_ belongs, as primitive, highlighting their diversity and ecological significance. The study emphasizes the need to reconsider the evolutionary narrative surrounding these ancient fish, showcasing _Dunkleosteus_ as a fascinating anomaly in the prehistoric marine ecosystem.
