Between 2017 and 2019, people across Japan donated 6.21 million used phones and nearly 79,000 tonnes of small electronic devices. Recyclers recovered about 32 kilograms of gold, 3,500 kilograms of silver and 2,200 kilograms of bronze from the haul—enough metal to make every one of the roughly 5,000 medals awarded at the Tokyo Olympic and Paralympic Games.

No sample deliberately collected on Mars has ever been examined in a laboratory on Earth, because bringing one home requires launching a sealed container from the Martian surface, autonomously rendezvousing with another spacecraft in orbit, and carrying it across interplanetary space; China plans to accomplish all three with Tianwen-3 and return at least 500 grams of Martian material around 2031.

We tend to think humans domesticated wolves, but one influential hypothesis proposes some Ice Age wolves began the process themselves by scavenging around human camps, where the bolder, less fearful individuals that tolerated people gained easier access to food and may have left more descendants than their wary siblings
