 From - The Noble Prize, Edited by - Vinuri Randhula Silva, The first Nobel Prize in Physics, given in 1901, was awarded to Wilhelm Röntgen for the discovery of the X-ray. Röntgen discovered a new type of radiation in 1895 that would be subsequently named after him, but he always preferred the term X-rays – from the mathematical designation for something unknown – as no one understood what these remarkable rays actually were. Researchers worldwide could experiment on X-rays as Röntgen refused to patent his findings, convinced that his inventions and discoveries belonged to the world at large. X-ray radiation became a powerful tool for physical experiments and examining inside our bodies. We'll find out who has been awarded this year's prize in just a couple of weeks time.

From - Mongabay For Kids, Edited by -  Amal Udawatta, This hermit crab dresses itself in style – with an anemone coat! Meet the newly described anemone that scientists have named  Stylobates calcifer : Stylobates calcifer on the back of a hermit crab’s shell . Image by Akihiro Yoshikawa. This anemone is a little different than the ones you can find in a tide pool. It is found on the deep-sea floor, off the coast of Japan. And it lives on the back of a host – a hermit crab called  Pagurodofleinia doederleini . The new-to-science anemone species Stylobates calcifer on the back of its hermit crab host. Photos by Akihiro Yoshikawa from Yoshikawa et al 2022. Hermit crabs use empty mollusk shells as a sort of shelter. The shell protects their soft abdomen. If a hermit crab outgrows its shell, it will search for a new, bigger shell to carry around. Of the more than 800 species of hermit crabs, at least 35 species carry anemones on their shells. Scientists think that this relationship helps bo
