'First of its kind' triple star system likely gobbled up a 4th star | Signs of cancer found in mysterious 'pregnant' Egyptian mummy | Gold Viking ring unexpectedly found in stash of 'cheap jewelry' from online auction Created for {EMAIL} | [Web Version]( July 21, 2022 CONNECT WITH LIVESCIENCE  [Facebook]( [Twitter](  [LIVESCIENCE]( Amazing science every day [SIGN UP]( ⋅ [WEBSITE](  [] Top Science News [] ['First of its kind' triple star system likely gobbled up a 4th star]( ['First of its kind' triple star system likely gobbled up a 4th star]( (NASA/JPL-Caltech/UCLA) Astronomers have detected a triple star system that is unlike any that has been seen before. The unusual trio of stars is much more massive and closely squeezed together than a typical triple system, which may be because the stellar triplets used to have a fourth sibling before one of the others gobbled it up. The triple, or tertiary, star system is known as TIC 470710327 and was detected by researchers using data from NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) observatory that’s orbiting Earth. The trio has a hierarchical structure, meaning a pair of binary stars circle one another at the center of the system, while a third star orbits the central pair.

Ożarek-Szilke/Warsaw Mummy Project) A mysterious mummy of an ancient Egypt woman, who may have been pregnant when she died, likely also had cancer, according to researchers. Deformities in the mummy's skull suggest a sizable tumor behind the left eye, but further tests are required to confirm that the tumor was cancerous.

Archaeologists think the ring may be more than 1,000 years old and once belonged to a powerful Viking chief. Mari Ingelin Heskestad, who lives in western Norway, told the Bergensavisen, a daily newspaper in Bergen, that she'd found the gold ring among several pieces of cheap jewelry and trinkets that were being auctioned together online.

So impressive and picturesque is the forest that it was used as the backdrop for the 1936 romantic thriller "The Petrified Forest," starring Bette Davis and Humphrey Bogart. But what, exactly, is petrified wood? How is it made, and how long does it take to form?

Finding this insect and bloom suspended close together offers clues about their relationship in the tropical ancient ecosystem that they once inhabited, according to a new study published June 16 in the journal Historical Biology. The bloom belongs to a previously unknown flower species in an exceptionally rare group, and hidden inside one of its spherical seed pods was a secret stowaway: the developing larva of a minuscule fly, which may have been intended as a future meal for the wasp's young.

The discovery, made by studying the minuscule tubes of the inner ear, places the evolution of mammalian warm-bloodedness at around 233 million years ago — 19 million years later than scientists previously thought.
