An international team of experts made the discovery while observing white-faced capuchins in Panama’s Coiba National Park. The researchers decided to place camera trap on three islands in the park in an attempt to capture and study their behaviour. Only capuchins on one island, Jicarón, exhibited the use of tools (pictured), suggesting that primates - including our own ancestors - may simply have stumbled into the use of stone tools and entered the stone age by chance. The species is believed to be the fourth non-human primate to have made the cognitive leap to regularly employing shaped rocks to achieve certain tasks.
The incredible image reveals a nebula, located 20,000 light-years away in the constellation Carina, that contains a central cluster of huge, hot stars, called NGC 3603.
