Two light sensors decode moonlight versus sunlight to adjust a plastic circadian/circalunidian clock to moon phase
<p>Many species synchronize their physiology and behavior to specific hours. It is commonly assumed that sunlight acts as the main entrainment signal for ~24h clocks. However, the moon provides similarly regular time information. Consistently, a growing number of studies have reported correlations between diel behavior and lunidian cycles. Yet, mechanistic insight into the possible influences of the moon on ~24hr timers remains scarce.</p> <div> <div> <div class="msocomtxt"> <p class="MsoNormal"><span>We have explored the marine bristleworm </span><em><span>Platynereis dumerilii</span></em><span> to investigate the role of moonlight in the timing of daily behavior. We uncover that moonlight, besides its role in monthly timing, also schedules the exact hour of nocturnal swarming onset to the nights' darkest times. Our work reveals that extended moonlight impacts on a plastic clock that exhibits <24h (moonlit) or >24h (no moon) periodicity. Abundance, light sensitivity, and genetic requirement indicate that the <em>Platynereis </em>light receptor molecule r-Opsin1 serves as a receptor that senses moonrise, whereas the cryptochrome protein L-Cry<em> </em>is required to discriminate the proper valence of nocturnal light as either moon- or sunlight. Comparative experiments in <em>Drosophila </em>suggest that cryptochrome's principal requirement for light valence interpretation is conserved. Its exact biochemical properties differ, however, between species with dissimilar timing ecology.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span>Our work advances the molecular understanding of lunar impact on fundamental rhythmic processes, including those of marine mass spawners endangered by anthropogenic change.</span></p> </div> </div> </div>
Raw data for the article: A Cryptochrome adopts distinct moon- and sunlight states and functions as sun- versus moonlight interpreter in monthly oscillator entrainment
<p>The moon's monthly cycle synchronizes reproduction in countless marine organisms. The mass-spawning bristle worm Platynereis dumerilii uses an endogenous monthly oscillator to phase reproduction to specific days. Classical work showed that this oscillator is set by full moon. But how do organisms recognize such a specific moon phase? We uncover that the light receptor L-Cryptochrome (L-Cry) is able to discriminate between different moonlight durations, as well as between sun- and moonlight. Consistent with L-Cry's function as light valence interpreter, its genetic loss leads to a faster re-entrainment under artificially strong nocturnal light. This suggests that L-Cry blocks "wrong" light from impacting on the monthly oscillator. A biochemical characterization of purified L-Cry protein, exposed to naturalistic sun- or moonlight, reveals the formation of distinct sun- and moonlight states characterized by different photoreduction- and recovery kinetics of L-Cry's co-factor Flavin Adenine Dinucleotide. In vivo, L-Cry's sun- versus moonlight states correlate with distinct sub-cellular localizations, indicating different signalling. In contrast, r-Opsin1, the most abundant ocular opsin, is not required for monthly oscillator entrainment. Our work reveals a new concept for correct moonlight interpretation involving a "valence interpreter" that provides entraining photoreceptor(s) with light source and moon phase information. These findings advance our mechanistic understanding of a fundamental biological phenomenon: moon-controlled monthly timing. Such level of understanding is also an essential prerequisite to tackle anthropogenic threats on marine ecology.</p>
Bombardment history of the Moon constrained by crustal porosity
<p>The source data is the modeling result regarding the origin of crustal porosity for the Moon. In this study, we find that the crustal porosity of the early Moon was likely to be high, generated by large basins in its early bombardment history. This high porosity can be reduced over time by smaller impacts or overburden pressure. Our porosity evolution model is based on the observed GRAIL (Gravity and Recovery Interior Laboratory) datasets and global lunar crater catalog and can explain the porosity distribution in the present-day lunar crust.</p>

Searching for deep-seated thrust faults on the moon
<p class="Abstract">The lunar maria are large expanses of basalt that infill antecedent impact basins and show evidence for post-emplacement deformation. Landforms within many of these basins suggest a period of compressive tectonics, although the mechanism for their formation remains an open question. Previous work for Mare Crisium demonstrated that basin-circumferential wrinkle ridges, which typically demarcate the inner edge of an annulus of elevated terrain, are the result of deep-seated thrust faults that preferentially form along the boundary of an elevated, superisostatic portion of mantle and a thick, subisostatic collar of crustal material. Here, we show that a similar fault architecture exists for several other mascon-bearing basins, including Maria Serenititis, Nectaris, Moscoviense, and, to a lesser degree, Humorum and Imbrium. These deeply penetrating basin-circumferential thrust faults, as for Mare Crisium, form a (partial) outward-dipping ring-fault system that bounds the elevated mantle plug beneath each basin as a geometric consequence of mascon evolution. If this geometric arrangement is unique to the Moon, then some characteristic(s) of lunar mascon evolution enables the formation of such mascon-bounding faults. Despite the ubiquitous nature of mascon-bound thrust ring faults at several lunar basins, the prevalence of such structures at mascon basins on other terrestrial worlds remains an open question.</p>

Jupiter Moon's Movie2, by Nicolas Hurez, Paul-Antoine Matrangolo, and Carl Pennypacker, United States of America
<p>Second place in the 2021 IAU OAE Astrophotography Contest, category Galilean moons.</p> <p>This sequence shows the orbit of the four Galilean moons around the planet Jupiter. Almost two entire orbits of the innermost moon, Io, can be seen, with the other moons (Europa and Ganymede, but in particular Callisto) being further away, orbiting noticeably slower. The images were obtained in 2018 with the Las Cumbres Global Observatory at different locations on Earth, allowing a continuous sequence of images over approximately half a week without gaps during the day. With clear skies and over the course of several nights, the motion of the Galilean moons can also be observed with binoculars (ideally steady your elbows on a surface).</p> <p>Credit: Nicolas Hurez, Paul-Antoine Matrangolo and Carl Pennypacker/IAU OAE</p>

Sexual selection does not drive hindwing tail elaboration in a moon moth, Actias luna
<p>The most emblematic animal traits are often attributed to sexual selection. While this pressure is an important force, elaborated traits that have been driven solely by natural selection are less enumerated. Here, we test an elaborate trait that has been studied in an anti-predator context, but that remains unstudied for its role in mating. We gave female <em>Actias</em> <em>luna</em> (Saturniidae) moths a choice between two males of differing hindwing tail treatments. In our primary experiment, males with intact tails garnered more matings than males with tails removed, but this difference appears to result from damage incurred by tail removal. We verified this with a series of additional experiments: we created a tail/no-tail dyad where we removed tails from both males, then reglued tails to one and applied glue to the hindwings of the other. We found no difference in mating success. To ensure that this no-difference result was not due to the glue itself, we offered females two intact males, with glue added to the wings of one. This dyad also had equal mating success. We therefore find no evidence that tails play a role in sexual selection. These results, in combination with previous research on bat-moth battles using <em>A. luna</em>, leads us to conclude that hindwing tail elaboration was likely driven by natural selection alone. We suggest that future research testing multiple selective forces on animal traits is needed to reveal the prevalence of natural versus sexual selection as the primary force driving trait elaboration in diverse animal taxa.</p>
