Tiny Titanosaurs, Giant Snakes, And Transatlantic Heart Transplants IFLScience - Break It Down

    • Science

This week in Break It Down, a new species of tiny titanosaur is compared to a cow, a 47-million-year-old snake becomes the largest ever, an RNA breakthrough brings us closer to "universal vaccines", a heart flies 7,000 kilometers to its recipient, we question Stonehenge's relationship to the Moon, and why the philosophy of science matters in the modern day.
Sit back, relax, and let's Break It Down...
