We have no way of knowing, but the hunt for extraterrestrial life can now include purple bacteria, according to a group of astronomers who are recording the chemical makeup unique to the lavender-hued organisms. These microbes may have dominated Earth early on in our planet's history and are well-suited to emerge on faraway worlds that circle dim red stars smaller than our sun, a new study suggests.

Geothermal energy has the potential to provide significant clean energy, but currently accounts for only a small portion of the global energy mix. Enhanced geothermal systems and deep-drilling technologies are making geothermal energy more cost-effective and accessible. Political divisions in the United States may hinder the rapid development of geothermal energy, despite its potential as a bipartisan solution to climate change.

To find life on far-off planets, astronomers may need to look for pinpoints of purple. New research unravels the light signals that are likely to come from worlds where oxygen and sunlight are in short supply — which is likely the case for many discovered so far. On Earth, the dominant color signal for life is green, thanks to bacteria and plants that use green chlorophyll to transform visible sunlight into energy.

All workers should stay home because of a lack of electricity, Ecuador said on Wednesday. Hydroelectric plants on which it depends for energy are facing low water levels. So the country has been ordered to take Thursday and Friday off. Ecuador on Wednesday ordered all public and private workers to stay home for two days as critically low water levels at hydroelectric plants sparked a major power crisis in the country.
