      New observations from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) are painting a new picture of Jupiter's moon Europa and revealing the hidden chemistry of the icy moon's interior, according to an article from Space.com. For decades, scientists pictured Europa's frozen surface as a still, silent shell. But the new observations reveal that it's actually a dynamic world that's far from frozen in time. “We think that the surface is fairly porous and warm enough in some areas to allow the ice to recrystallize rapidly,” Richard Cartwright, a spectroscopist at Johns Hopkins University's Applied Physics Laboratory and lead author of the new study, said in a statement. Perhaps even more exciting is what this surface activity reveals about Europa's subsurface ocean. The presence of geologic activity and ongoing cycling between the subsurface and surface make “chaos terrains” — highly disrupted regions where blocks of ice seem to have broken off, drifted and refrozen — especially valuable as potential windows into Europa's interior.

      Ancient Egyptians sure knew how to stage a burial, including canopic jars to hold organs and scrolls from the “Book of the Dead” to help the deceased navigate the afterlife. In central Egypt, archaeologists uncovered one of these elaborate scenes: a 3,500-year-old New Kingdom cemetery filled with mummies, amulets, statues, canopic jars, and a 43-foot-long papyrus scroll containing part of the Book of the Dead, according to an article from Popular Mechanics. This scroll is the first complete papyrus found in the Al-Ghuraifa area, and is “characterized by being in good condition,” Mustafa Waziri, secretary general of the Egyptian Supreme Council of Antiquities, said in a translated Arabic statement from the Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities.

      The United Kingdom will move forward with its plan to ban all public sector bodies and critical national infrastructure from paying ransomware attackers, according to an article from TechRepublic. The intention is to make critical industries “unattractive targets for criminals” to reduce the frequency and impact of incidents in the country. The ban, which would apply to NHS trusts, schools, local councils, and data centres, was first proposed in January. It then underwent several months of public consultation, culminating this week in an announcement that nearly three-quarters of respondents supported the proposal.
