It's been discovered that the Bennu asteroid had some of the vital components needed for life! 😮

Similar asteroids may have helped deliver the water and chemical building blocks that led to the evolution of life on Earth. 🌱

Bird-to-human transmission of avian influenza is rare and has previously occurred only a small number of times in the UK.

The person acquired the infection on a farm, where they had close and prolonged contact with a large number of infected birds.
