Summary
In science news around the world, the diaphanous sunshield of the James Webb Space Telescope is being inspected after its first test deployment in California, the Iranian parliament ousted the reform-minded science minister, China decided not to renew permits for studies of three genetically modified crops, and the world's largest bat catcher was unveiled in Latvia. Also, a math and science teacher in Montana is running a campaign for a U.S. Senate seat, a quirky Internet campaign has raised more than $80 million for an amyotrophic lateral sclerosis organization, and the American Academy of Pediatrics recommended that middle and high schools don't begin classes until 8:30 a.m. to give kids enough time to sleep.
