The fossilized remains of an Archaeopteryx. A new study, which involved using a powerful X-ray beam to probe fossil bones, confirmed that 150 million years ago Archaeopteryx was an \'active\' flyer. It flapped its wings and properly flew rather than gliding from tree to tree. Scientists conducted the research at ESRF, the European Synchrotron facility in Grenoble, France. (Photo/Agencies)
