Methan in der Marsatmosphäre entsteht aus Meteoriten, die dort starker UV-Strahlung ausgesetzt sind, wie Forscher um F. Keppler am Max-Planck-Institut für Chemie in Untersuchungen festgestellt haben. Sie entkräften damit die Vermutung, die Methanquelle könnten Lebewesen auf dem Mars sein.

Welches Land hat das beste Rentensystem? Darauf gibt es zwar keine einfache Antwort, aber mithilfe der Pension Maps des Max-Planck-Instituts für Sozialrecht und Sozialpolitik nun erstmals eine leicht verständliche Übersicht über die Alterssicherung in zehn Ländern. Anhand einfacher Grafiken lässt sich auf einen Blick ablesen, wie die Alterssicherung in einem Land organisiert ist.

Some animals produce more offspring than others do. Hormones like prolactin and corticosterone can exercise a crucial influence on the behaviour of birds in the breeding season and therefore on their reproductive success. Scientists from the Max Planck Institute for Ornithology in Radolfzell and their colleagues at the universities of Princeton and Edinburgh have now demonstrated that hormone levels not only play a key role during the breeding season, but already dictate, long in advance, how many eggs a breeding pair will lay, when they will lay them and how often. An animal’s hormonal constitution is thus of major significance for its reproductive success, and is possibly an important driving force of evolution.
