No major increase in virus spread since restrictions eased
THERE HAS been no major increase in the spread of coronavirus since Ireland entered phase 1 of exiting lockdown. On 18 May, some of Ireland's lockdown restrictions were tweaked, allowing certain shops to open, people to visit up to four friends outdoors while maintaining social distance, and citizens allowed to venture up to 5km from home for exercise. The Government had warned that its planned phased reopening of the country could be reversed if there is a spike in cases-- however it seems the people of Ireland "have learned how to go about their business and not spread this virus". The positive comments come from National Public Health Emergency Team member Professor Philip Nolan, who is chair of the Irish Epidemiological Modelling Advisory Group for the team. Speaking this morning on RTÉ's Morning Ireland, he assured people that there had been no significant increased spread of the virus, and that as long as citizens continue to adhere to measures including social distancing and regular hand washing, and to…

Astronomers predict bombardment from asteroids and comets in another planetary system
The planetary system around star HR8799 is remarkably similar to our Solar System. A research team led by astronomers from the University of Groningen and SRON Netherlands Institute for Space Research has used this similarity to model the delivery of materials by asteroids, comets and other minor bodies within the system. Their simulation shows that the four gas planets receive material delivered by minor bodies, just like in our Solar System.

New view on how tissues flow in the embryo
Watching and measuring what happens in tissues inside the human embryo is currently not possible, and it's difficult to do in mammalian models. Because humans and the fruit fly Drosophila share so many biological similarities, researchers tackled this problem by focusing on fruit flies. The team reports today that they can predict when the tissue will begin to rapidly flow just by looking at cell shapes in the tissue.
