Science news today spans outbreaks, conservation and the raw power of nature. On board the Caribbean Princess, a norovirus outbreak has sickened more than 100 passengers and crew, prompting intensified cleaning and close CDC monitoring even as some travelers say life on the ship feels mostly normal. In Kenya, there is more hopeful news: conservationists are returning the critically endangered mountain bongo, the elusive “ghost of the forest,” to its native habitat in an effort to rebuild wild populations. In Indonesia, however, Mount Dukono has turned deadly. After a major eruption sent ash soaring high above Halmahera, rescuers recovered one body and continued searching for two missing Singaporeans, while broader reports say three hikers were killed despite safety restrictions around the volcano. Together, the day’s stories underscore both science’s role in managing risk and its power to support recovery.
