I subscribe to the ABC Science Updates newsletter but with the amount of uni, work and other stuff I have going on, I don't often click through to the articles and podcasts it links. But this one caught my interest in archaeology, palaeontology and origins.
Fossil sheds new light on 'dino-bird'
The article from the 12 May covers some new discoveries about the Archaeopteryx found using some special x-rays in California. Apparently it revealed some things about the chemical make-up of the Archaeopteryx's feathers which links it more closely to current day birds.
Interesting read if you're into origins and palaeontology.
