Jet Airways temporarily shuts down operations
The Naresh Goyal-led Indian airline operator, Jet Airways, decided to temporarily suspend operations after failing to obtain emergency funding from the consortium of banks led by SBI. The airline, which operated its last flight from Amritsar to Mumbai on 17 April 2019, is under a debt of ₹8,000 crore.
In a statement, Jet Airways said, ‘Over the last several weeks and months, the company has tried every means possible to seek both interim and long-term funding. Unfortunately, despite its very best efforts, the airline has been left with no other choice today but to go ahead with a temporary suspension of flight operations.
This has been a very difficult decision but without interim funding, the airline is simply unable to conduct flight operations in a manner that delivers to the very reasonable expectations of its guests, employees, partners and service providers.’
According to latest reports, Naresh Goyal has offered to infuse ₹250 crore from his own fund to revive the carrier. Goyal stepped down from the board of directors and chairmanship of Jet Airways in April.

New bird species found in Indonesia
Zoologists have identified two new bird species in the Wakatobi archipelago of Sulawesi in Indonesia. The two species, Wakatobi white-eye and Wangi-wangi white-eye, belong to the white-eye family, which is known to diversify faster than most animal species. This characteristic, in turn, makes them ideal for studying speciation.
Interestingly, the genomic analysis of Wakatobi white-eye has confirmed that it split from its mainland relatives around 800,000 years ago. On the other hand, the scientists also informed that the Wangi-wangi white-eye species is much older, more than a million-years old.
The zoologists belonging to Trinity College, Dublin along with those from the Halu Oleo University (UHO) found these beautiful species, details of which were published in the Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society on 23 April 2019.

State of Global Air-2019 report released
The Health Effects Institute (HEI) and Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) recently released a comprehensive report on global exposure to air pollution and its disease burden, titled ‘State of Global Air 2019’. A few major findings, as included in the report, are given below:
More than 90% of the people worldwide live in areas exceeding the limits specified in the WHO guidelines for healthy air.
Air pollution reduces life expectancy by an average of one year and eight months worldwide, a global impact rivaling that of smoking. This means that, on an average, a child born today will die 20 months sooner than would be expected in the absence of air pollution.
Air pollution is among the highest ranked five risk factors for population health globally, shortening life by an average of 20 months around the globe.
Air pollution contributed to almost five million deaths globally — nearly one in every ten — in 2017.
PM2.5 pollution contributed to nearly three million early deaths in 2017. More than 50% of this disease burden fell on people living in China and India.
Ozone pollution accounted for nearly half a million early deaths worldwide in 2017.
In 2017, exposure to PM2.5 was the third leading risk factor for type 2 diabetes deaths and Disability-Adjusted Life Years, after high blood sugar and high body mass index.

‘Children need to play more’, says WHO
According to a report published by the World Health Organization (WHO) on 24 April 2019, children under the age of five years must spend less time in prams or confined to a seat and should be left free to play in order to promote healthy growth.
This report on physical activity, sedentary behaviour and sleep for children under five years of age has been developed by a panel of experts at WHO. It further suggests that a lifestyle comprising physical activity, sedentary behaviour and sleep habits is developed early in life and stays through adolescence and into adulthood.
Take a look at the recommendations below:
Infants (less than one year) should
be physically active several times a day in a variety of ways.
not be restrained for more than one hour at a time.
have 14–17 hours (0–3 months of age) or 12–16 hours (4–11 months of age) of good quality sleep.
Children in the age group of 1-2 years should
spend at least 180 minutes in a variety of physical activities of any intensity.
not be restrained for more than one hour at a time. For one-year-olds, sedentary screen time (such as watching TV or videos, playing computer games) is not recommended. For those aged two, sedentary screen time should be not more than one hour; less is better.)
have 11-14 hours of good quality sleep.
Children 3-4 years of age should
spend at least 180 minutes in a variety of physical activities of any intensity.
not be restrained for more than one hour at a time.
have 10–13 hours of good quality sleep.

UNFPA State of World Population Report-2019 published
The United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) recently published its State of World Population Report 2019, titled ‘Unfinished Business – the pursuit of rights and choices for all’ .” The report focuses on five major areas: population, maternal and newborn health, family planning, education, fertility and life expectancy.
Here are some findings of the report:
The world population increased by an average annual rate of 1.1 percent between 2010 and 2019.
The global life expectancy rate (at birth), as of 2019, is 72 years.
The total fertility rate, per woman, worldwide, as recorded in 2019, is 2.5.
Every day, over 500 girls and women, including those living in countries with emergency settings, die during pregnancy.
The report, however, goes on to state that education is the answer to many of these problems. It mentions that ‘education enhances women’s understanding of their place in society, provides them with the skills and information to exercise their voice in relationships, and enables them to negotiate for their own interests.’

Remains of new human species found in the Philippines
Remains of a new species of humans, known as Homo luzonensis, have been found on the island of Luzon in the Philippines. Several body parts, including foot and hand bones, a partial leg bone and teeth of at least three individuals, most likely two adults and one child, were found in Callao Cave on the island.
A few findings made by the scientists are listed below.
The bones are around 65,000 years old.
Since their toes and finger bones are curved, it is quite possible that they were adept at climbing. However, researchers conclude that it is unlikely for them to have lived on trees.
The existence of Homo luzonensis was previously unknown to humans.
It can be speculated from the fossils that the members of species were short in stature, about three feet tall.
They, most probably, used stone tools.
The discovery was first published in Nature, an international journal of science.

First ever image of a black hole released
With the help of data collected by the global network of telescopes, scientists released the first-ever image of a black hole on 10 April 2019, thereby creating a milestone in astrophysics. The image reveals the black hole at the centre of Messier 87, one of the most massive galaxies in the Virgo galaxy cluster. One of the scientists who played a major role in the development of the picture is Dr. Katie Bouman. The 29-year-old imaging scientist developed an algorithm, Continuous High-resolution Image Reconstruction using Patch (CHIRP), that eventually led to the construction of the image.
A black hole is an extremely dense object that exhibits a strong gravitational force such that no particle, not even light can pass through it. Black holes are believed to be formed by collapsed stars.

Scientists find a new state of matter
According to the report published by the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, a team led by scientists from the University of Edinburgh has found a new state of matter, the chain-melted state, that allows atoms to exist in both solid and liquid state at the same time. Potassium is one such element that forms a solid lattice structure, when high temperature and pressure is applied on it. The scientists used powerful computer simulations to study the existence of this state.
Besides potassium, the scientists also found that almost half a dozen other elements, such as sodium and bismuth, were able to reach the chain-melted state, when put into the right environments.
