<jats:p>It's been a rough year or so for anthropology. After a prominent politician insulted the field, a study announced that graduates with bachelor's degrees in anthropology face a particularly bleak unemployment rate, leading to anthropological career workshops and much discussion.</jats:p>

<jats:p>The Sutter's Mill meteorite is the most pristine sample yet collected of a rare type of carbonaceous chondrite, and possibly a sneak preview of a primitive asteroid to which NASA might one day send astronauts.</jats:p>

<jats:p>Gale crater's central mound seemed irresistible, offering the prospect of analyzing ancient lake sediments and posing as the ideal place to find remains of any early martian life. But at the meeting, a pair of researchers put a damper on those hopes.</jats:p>

<jats:p>Geochronologists who measure the passage of time in the steady ticking of radioactive decay presented convincing evidence that massive eruptions at the opening of the Atlantic Ocean 201 million years ago drove the mass extinction that cleared the way for the rise of the dinosaurs.</jats:p>

<jats:p>Seismologists hoping to discover how earthquakes work may be one small step closer.</jats:p>

<jats:p>These snapshots include new evidence that changes in the appearance of martian gullies from year to year are the result of carbon dioxide frost (aka dry ice) and that geological barriers delayed an earthquake by temporarily holding back injected wastewater from fracking.</jats:p>

<jats:p> <jats:italic>Science</jats:italic> has chosen the finding of the Higgs boson as its Breakthrough of the Year. </jats:p>

<jats:p>A remarkable new method to prepare single strands of ancient DNA and view their genomes topped the list of this year's runners-up for Breakthrough of the Year, along with important discoveries into transcription activator–like effector nucleases, neutrino physics, Majorana fermions, the production of eggs cells from stem cells, and brain-machine interfaces. Other notable advances involve the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements, the Mars Curiosity rover, and the use of x-ray lasers to determine protein structure.</jats:p>

<jats:p>Can scientists risk talking publicly about risk—especially when lives are on the line? It's a question that many researchers are asking after seven defendants were accused of conducting superficial analyses and making misleading public statements, then convicted of manslaughter.</jats:p>

<jats:p> In 2013, <jats:italic>Science</jats:italic> 's editors will be watching single-cell sequencing, the European Space Agency's Planck satellite, the Human Connectome Project, expeditions to study subglacial Antarctic waters, cancer immunotherapy, and basic plant research. </jats:p>
