Purdue University researchers published a literature review laying out an integrated approach to cut the environmental footprint of ruminant livestock while supporting animal welfare and production. According to the team, the livestock sector is responsible for 18% of emissions globally, and addressing that requires coordination across breeding, nutrition, management and technology rather than a single fix. The review appears in the journal Agriculture and was featured on the cover of a special issue on environmental threats to farm animals.

Purdue University is set to send five Boilermakers on a research journey into space with the announcement of the final two crew members to take part in a Virgin Galactic suborbital flight mission. Veteran commercial astronaut Beth Moses, a Purdue aeronautics and astronautics alumna, and Florence Stahura, a 1992 graduate of the James Tarpo Jr. and Margaret Tarpo Department of Chemistry, join the five-person crew expected to launch in 2027 for the groundbreaking suborbital flight, dubbed Purdue 1, that will include real-time research on board. The flight advances Purdue’s global leadership in space for education, research and alumni engagement.
