Ryugu’s rubble suggests its short life has been rather turbulent

Science

Sept. 21 (UPI) -- The asteroid Ryugu is a loose assemblage of fragments from a collision between two asteroids, according to new research published Monday in the journal Nature Astronomy. Some asteroids are composed of large, solid pieces of rock, but Ryugu is more like a rubble pile than a rock. It is too small and fragile to have remained intact for very long -- scientists estimate Ryugu formed between 10 million to 20 million years ago. Advertisement "Ryugu is too small to have survived the whole 4.6 billion years of solar system history," Seiji Sugita, professor of planetary sciences at the University of Tokyo in Japan, said in a news release.

Sports

Mohamed Salah currently leads the race for the Premier League Golden Boot and the European Golden ShoeMonday, March 19, 2018Tony Cascarino would rather select Mohamed Salah in a team than Neymar, with Liverpool’s superstar only behind Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo in terms of his talent.Writing in his The Times column, Cascarino reacted with wonder to Salah’s performance in Liverpool’s defeat of Watford. The Egypt forward scored four and assisted the other of the Reds’ five goals, to put in his standout showing since arriving at Anfield.Liverpool spent just £34m on Salah this summer, a fee which no longer can even be described as a bargain.
