One of the NASA satellites, Van Allen Probe A, is bound to enter the atmosphere of Earth again, although experts have assured that the chances of human safety are negligible. Particles of a massive satellite of NASA are likely to fall back to the earth, but the probability that someone would be injured is deemed extremely low, according to experts.One of two probes that were placed in orbit in 2012 to investigate the Van Allen radiation belts (regions of charged particles bound to the magnetic field of Earth) is the satellite, which weighs approximately 600 kg or 1323 pounds.

Studies indicate that daily multivitamin use over two years appears to delay certain markers of biological ageing to some extent. Although chronological age depends on how long a person has lived, one’s biological age reflects the state of the body. The latter can be estimated from changes in DNA methylation- modification of DNA that is age-related and influences the functioning of genes.One of them is that, by reducing the pace of biological ageing, it may be feasible to either prevent or mitigate age-related disease, implying that individuals will have additional years of healthy life. A U.S.-Based study funded by the confectionery company…
