  114.  
  115. - Astrophysicist Ronald Mallett tells CNN he has a ring laser prototype, as well as scientific formulas and principles by which one could theoretically build a time machine with real, measurable effects: via twists in space time based on general relativity equations created by the gravitational field of a ring laser; other scientists doubt the feasibility of creating such "closed timelike curves"
  116. - Publication of new guidelines for testosterone treatment of men with age-related low testosterone by the American College of Physicians
  117. - NASA's TESS space telescope for exoplanet-search finds its first Earth-sized exoplanet in the habitable zone of a planet: TOI 700 d. It's ~100 light years away and likely rocky
  118. - Chinese swordfish now officially declared exinct (since roughly 2010)
  119. - 17 year old NASA intern discovers a circumbinary planet which circulates two stars (a binary star) in TESS data: TOI 1338 b
  120. - National Science Foundation renames the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope to "Vera C. Rubin Observatory" in honor of Rubin, who helped provide evidence for the existence of dark matter
  121. - New study on lokiarchaeota: could be a link between simple prokaryotic and complex eukaryotic microorganisms as they may have engulfed partner microbes and endogenized them as protomitochondria about 2 bn years ago: see Science Summary of August 2019
  122. - Giant squid genome is sequenced
  123. - A new species of plumed moth is discovered: Alucita udovichenkoi
  124. - Evidence that the platypus is at risk of extinction, due to a combination of water resource development, land clearing, climate change and increasingly severe periods of drought
  125. - First replication of a vocal tract and voice simulation of an Egyptian mummy (priest Nesyamun)
  126. - New evidence that Hemiscyllium, also called "walking sharks" as they can walk on land using their fins, are the latest shark species evolutionarily
  127. - New meat-eating species of dinosaur is discovered: Allosaurus jimmadseni
