The newborn star's heat drove smaller particles and gases, including water vapor, out from the center. The heavier, metal-rich rock left behind condensed into asteroids and the inner planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. Much...

The latter is the peculiar plight of Brooke Blanton, a 13-year-old Dallas girl who has taught researchers much of what they know about cell adhesion and wound healing. Brooke first came to doctors' attention as an infant, when her umbilicus and teething sores failed to close and became infected. Strangely, Brooke's lesions contained no pus -- the carcasses of millions of white cells that pile up at infection sites -- even though her bloodstream was teeming with infection-fighting white cells, or leukocytes...
