Description:
A tiny #fern #plant has been discovered that contains the largest amount of #DNA stored in the nucleus of any living organism on the planet. <br/>Found in New Caledonia on a remote Pacific island, the tiny fork fern now holds three Guinness World Record titles. If its DNA was unraveled it would reach just over 100 meters – higher than the tower that's home to the world-famous Big Ben bell in London.<br/><br/>Study co-author Ilia Leitch, researcher at the UK's Royal Botanic Gardens Kew, speaks to CGTN Europe about this amazing plant.

_scotland-fan-ethan-walker-cycles-to-munich-after-incredible-health-recovery.webp "Scotland fan Ethan Walker cycles to Munich after incredible health recovery<br/><br/>A small team of Tartan Army foot-soldiers have decided to cycle to Euro24 in Munich to help Scotland-daft, young footballer, Ethan Walker realise his dream.<br/><br/>Ethan Walker might just be the most committed Scotland fan there is. He's preparing to cycle 1200km to watch his heroes only eight months after a serious accident where he sustained multiple injuries.<br/><br/>(Ethan Walker)<br/><br/>In September 2023 the footballer, who left local side Huntly FC aged 17 to attend a football scholarship in the U.S. was hit by a car in New York state.<br/>Tragically he sustained life threatening injuries including multiple fractures, two brain haemorrhages and the complete dislocation of his right knee. The fractured bones included his skull, shoulder, hand, pelvis and knee. On discharge from intensive care Ethan was still unable to swallow and required months of tube feeding.<br/>The assault to his knee was huge - all his knee ligaments and cartilage were torn, the equivalent of 5 ACL injuries.<br/><br/>Ethan's mum, who was at home in Scotland when the incident happened, was notified and within a day she was by her son's side in hospital.<br/>After six weeks in intensive care Ethan travelled back to Scotland where he met top orthopaedic surgeon Professor Gordon Mackay of the Mackay Clinic.<br/>")
_eminem-shades-megan-thee-stallion-and-tory-lanez-case-in-new-single.webp "In a recent turn of events, Eminem stirred controversy with his new track 'Houdini' by referencing the unfortunate incident involving fellow rapper Tory Lanez shooting Megan Thee Stallion in the foot. The track, released on May 31st, reignited discussions around the altercation that took place back in July 2020 after a pool party at Kylie Jenner’s mansion. Stallion's courage in speaking out against Lanez's alleged actions was commendable, yet she faced backlash and doubt within the rap community, notably exemplified in Drake's track 'Circo Loco'. Lanez was later convicted and sentenced to ten years in prison for the incident. Eminem's inclusion of Stallion's ordeal in his lyrics prompted swift backlash from fans, who criticized him for exploiting her trauma and questioned whether it was an attempt to remain relevant in the industry as he ages.")
