  1. Chicago's youth fighting food deserts

    Chicago is a city known for its food, but alarmingly 64 out of the 98 communities are in food deserts. A community becomes a food desert when fresh produce isn’t available in a one mile radius, but processed foods are around the corner and thus easily obtainable. Typically food deserts are located in lower income minority neighborhoods throughout the United States and the consequences are significant. Americans without access to fresh produce are often malnourished. They are more likely to suffer from diabetes type II, obesity, cancer, coronary heart disease and stroke than other Americans.

  17. Astronomers prepare for rare transit of Venus

    On June 5, astronomers will witness an astronomical event that has been observed in the modern era only six times previously, a passage or transit of the planet Venus across the face of the sun. The next time such an event will occur is 2117, so researchers are gearing up to devote as many resources as possible to view the transit from both Earth and space. Among other things, scientists hope observations of the transit will inform efforts to detect extrasolar planets -- those around distant stars -- a feat that is achieved in part by observing the dimming of a star as a planet passes between it and the Earth.
