Comet lander Philae may wake up as Sun nears
European scientists express strong confidence Philae will regain contact as 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko nears the sun. The washing machine sized lander, in shadow after bouncing, could wake next spring when solar panels recharge the primary and secondary batteries for new science runs.

Endangered Bluefin quotas now raised
The International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas boosted next year’s Bluefin tuna quotas for the Atlantic and Mediterranean. U S, Canada, and Mexico total 2,000 metric tons, the Mediterranean total 15,821 metric tons. Amanda Nickson of Pew warns this endangers recovery. World Wildlife Fund also urges greater responsibility from fishers and consumers.
