Astronomers at Lund University in Sweden have found a group of stars in the Milky Way disk, that are most likely remnants from an unknown baby galaxy that was swallowed by the Milky Way over 10 billion years ago. Nothing like it has been discovered in the galaxy disk before. After the Big Bang 13.8 billion years ago, space was a veritable Wild West. Stars formed inside huge gas clouds that collide

Bakterien 'Staphylococcus aureus', den gula stafylokocken, är vanligt förekommande i vår omgivning, på huden och i näsan. Den kan orsaka lindriga infektioner, men också allvarlig infektion om bakterien kommer in i blodbanan; vilket drabbar ungefär 2000 personer årligen i Sverige. Bakterierna kan slå sig ner i kroppen, till exempel i leder eller på hjärtklaffar och kräver vanligen minst 10 dagar in
