Moths use stars to navigate long migrations across Australia
Australian Bogong moths trek about 620 miles to caves near the Alps to cool, then return to breed and die. Experiments with staged night skies show moths align with real star patterns, suggesting stars guide their navigation along with Earth's magnetic field. Researchers note the brain size of these moths makes the feat remarkable.
