Post navigation Two 17-year-old high school students from New York, Ryan and Lamar, solved a problem that had puzzled Charles Darwin for over 150 years. They discovered how seeds of Protea plants, which are native to South Africa, were able to survive hard journeys from Africa to other parts of the world. The teens concluded that the seeds hitch rides on the feathers of large sea birds like pelicans, albatross, and swans, transporting the seeds to new places. The Justice Department requested a protective order due to the case in which President Donald Trump is accused of obstructing investigators who were looking into his campaign’s alleged ties to Russia. The request is meant to protect the investigation from a potential public revelation as requested by a federal judge. This could mean that important evidence and information is kept secret for the duration of the case.
