Cerro Guido, Chile, Apr 1 (EFE), (Camera: Felipe Trueba).- A valley at the southern tip of Chile, dubbed the “Rosetta Stone” of paleontology in the Southern hemisphere, is providing an international team of researchers with new findings of well-preserved fossils of vertebrates, invertebrates and plants from the Cretaceous period that could be the key to unlocking the secrets of life and the planet at the end of the dinosaur era.The research by the group of geologists, paleobotanists and biologists in Las Chinas valley, located on a sprawling estate normally used for cattle farming that houses a treasure trove of fossils at the end of the continent, is also shedding light on the common past shared by South America and Antarctica, as the director of the Chilean Antarctic Institute (INACH) and director of this long-term paleontological expedition, Marcelo Leppe, tells epa-efe.FOOTAGE OF THE RESEARCH.SOUNDBITES OF MARCELO LEPPE, DIRECTOR OF THE PALEONTOLOGICAL EXPEDITION:“It's an iconic place with a lot of animal and plant species and microfossils that are helping us elucidate an unknown area of natural history."“We have some of America's oldest mammals in this valley and the oldest in Chile. But its value is not only due to its age, it’s that these are pieces that were missing which have revolutionized our thinking, and allowed us to rattle the cage of our understanding of the evolution of mammals in the cretaceous period."

Elon Musk's spacecraft has successfully launched into space carrying human sperm.
A team of 7 volunteer 'astronauts' will take part in a simulation of a two-week-long mission to the surfaces of the Moon and Mars near the town of Pila, Poland in a project called the Poland Mars Analogue Simulation 2017, or PMAS 2017. The volunteers will stay inside the simulated space module until August 13, spending the first three days in 'lunar mode' before switching to prepare for the red planet.
