A new nonprofit, the Society for the Protection of Underground Networks, is on a mission to illuminate the hidden world of fungi beneath our feet. Gabriel Popkin, a contributing correspondent, joined these researchers on their inaugural sampling expedition in Patagonia. The researchers hope to map the global distribution of mycorrhizal fungi with a network of researchers.

Science News Video: This little bot can hitchhike, swim and swoop with ease
Robots on long survey missions need to conserve power whenever possible. What if they could just hitch a ride on whatever they’re studying? That’s the idea behind a new robot, inspired by remoras, fish that hitchhike onto other animals using an adhesive disc on top of their head.
Remoras use lamellae, slat-like bones encased in soft tissue, and spinules, rows of hard teeth-like tissue to create tight suction. In 2017, scientists created a disc inspired by these features. But the disc couldn’t suction with individual lamella, making it vulnerable to falling off.
In the new study, the researchers created a disc with redundant suctions, allowing it to attach to surfaces even if part of its disc was not fully attached.
Adding propellers on board enabled the robot to swim underwater and latch onto moving objects. The bot could also launch itself out of the water in less than half a second, scientists report this week in Science Robotics.
The researchers anticipate this robot being used in a variety of situations: from diving in the water to tag animals, to long term environmental surveys. Watch the video to see the robot tackle a variety of situations with ease.

Science News Video: Watch a rat bob its head to music | Science News
To figure out whether rats innately perceive rhythm, researchers used motion capture cameras to track how rats move to a musical beat. The colored dots indicate markers that helped the cameras track the rodent’s subtle head bobbing as it hears a Mozart piano sonata and Lady Gaga’s “Born This Way.” The study could help reveal the evolutionary foundations of humans’ sense of rhythm.

Long thought to launch themselves randomly into the air when danger threatens, tiny springtails (Isotomurus retardatus) turn out to have some control over their leaping direction. They also curve their body to stop tumbling in air and use a tubelike structure on their underside to help land upright some 85 percent of the time. (High-speed video has been slowed for viewing.)
